Hired for protection order/custody issue. I guess it should have been a huge red flag from the get go when he couldn't be bothered to try to remember which of my children actually belonged to the ex in question. He seemed irate that my ex had come to my home multiple times, one time entering without permission, harrassed me, sent threatening messages, and the police refused to do anything. I filed for temporary protection order myself, sought continuance myself while Mr Frank's was on vacation. Finally the actual hearing arrived...I would have been better off representing myself. I was asked why I felt a message stating "I'm in your driveway, where the f*** are you", "our daughter is safe, you're not" was threatening, while my unrepresented ex ran his mouth and when I broke down crying, atty franks took me to another room and yelled at me like a child. Then after he spent 15 in a room alone with my ex discussing what HE wanted, he became irate when I didn't agree and quit my case in the middle of the hearing. The police specifically told me I need an "order of protection" or they can't do anything when he sits in my driveway and stalks me. Mr Franks pretty much told me I was a liar and that they didn't say that. I wonder if the bar association will feel that meeting with your clients ex privately in a separate room to discuss the case is appropriate? I intend to find out. I was referred to this man by someone I respect and trusted. My ex is a truly dangerous person, but I will be going tomorrow to drop the motion for a protection order. The court has already demonstrated to him that he is untouchable, with the help of MY OWN attorney. I've never felt like such a fool. Had I expected my past abuse to be rubbed in my face I would have let the cards fall where they may. It's quite evident to me why a past client was murdered by her husband during court proceedings. I wonder if she was made to be a liar and a fool too. PS: he's cheap. Remember you get what you pay for.

I hired Jim for a traffic violation in Cortland. Service from him was excellent and the price was reasonable. I'd highly recommend him!

I've used him a few times. .A kick ass attorney. .awesome

Nice guy, we had him draw up a will. Price was right and it was done quickly and easily.
