I needed a divorce lawyer and just happened to pick James (Jimbo) Coleman at random. It was a lucky choice for me. Jimbo handled the process from filing through settlement. I found him to be professional, knowledgeable, and considerate. He has a great personality and very efficient staff. His fee rate was very, very reasonable. In short, I highly recommend Jimbo Coleman for anyone in need of a civil attorney. There are many attorneys out there, it is important to pick the right one. Jimbo certainly was the right one for me.
