I initially contacted James for my daughter to see if he could challenge some of the sections in her separation agreement, which was filed in Virginia. She'd moved back to Texas and needed an attorney in Virginia. The first thing that impressed me was that James returned my call on a Saturday after I'd called his assistant Friday afternoon. My daughter emailed her papers and set an appointment for a few days later. James said there were some possibilities for argument, but the cost would likely outweigh the return. He was careful to explain everything in layman's language instead of legalese, was patient and took as much time as necessary to ensure that both of us understood everything about the process. I appreciated there was never an indication that he could get more than the agreement stipulated or recommend we should take it into a courtroom, although I believe he could have done that and enriched himself at our expense. James was completely above board and I felt good that he'd given my daughter the sound advice. I'm very impressed with his attitude, and I wouldn't hesitate to call him again if I need legal services. I only wish he practiced in my city.

I have used Mr. Short twice now with excellent results both times. He and his staff are very helpful, thorough and professional.

James Short represented my son in court and we are very pleased with the outcome. He explained how the courts look at these types of cases and what will usually happen. We were prepared when we went to court and my son was able to attend rehab. He was given time served. It is wonderful to have a lawyer who keeps in touch with the family, visits with his client, and keeps us updated. He truly cares about his clients and their future. I will recommend him to anyone who needs legal assistance. It makes a difference to have someone fighting for you who cares, not just because you paid them. James Short is that attorney. We are very thankful we chose him.

James Short is an excellent attorney. He represented me on unfounded criminal charges brought against me in maliciousness in regards to a custody battle. Throughout his time as my attorney, he proved again and again to be extremely reliable, supportive, respectful, and promptly returned all calls and answered all questions with informed, insightful, and competent manner. He was confident and composed in courtroom and quickly convinced the judge to drop the charges. I was very pleased with his performance and handling of my case.

I was pleased with Mr. Short and his office staff. It was an extremely difficult time in my life and they helped the process run smoothly. I am happy with the outcome and I have moved on with my life. He is intelligent, professional and kind attorney. Mr. Short was recommended to me by a friend and I would also recommend him to others.

When it comes to a lawyer who cares they say. Mr.Short is above and beyond. My life is simple, yet I need a lawyer from time to time. Mr. Short provides a family base atmosphere, in a short time; maybe longer if you'd like. A lawyer that cares , and brilliant .... few and far between ! He's one of the best . Period

It was a pleasure working with Mr. Short and his team in the resolution of my case. His entire staff was always available, responsive and professional. After having hired and "fired" 2 previous attorneys for poor service, it was a joy to finally have someone working with me. Thank you Mr. Short and to your entire team!!

My son received a speeding ticket and we had Mr. Short represent him. I was very impressed with him, not only as an attorney, but as a person. He was honest, straight forward and his advice was excellent. We had a good experience and I could tell he had a good rapport with the Judge also. I would recommend Mr. Short for sure.
