James Shoemaker and his team have helped me for years. They are reliable, punctual, and experienced. After they first worked with me, I was astounded and grateful for their transparency and commitment to helping my case. I am leaving this review four years after I first met James because I needed his help again. Within weeks we had plans scheduled, and even with government shutdowns and cancelations they remained in touch with me in order to regroup. Thank you James for your amazing work.

If I could put a negative I would. This guy was so rude, he cut me off to say “look my consultation is $300” and he proceeded to tell me his rates are $400 an hour . Then he said I have 5 free minutes for you to see if youre gonna waste your money and my time. SO RUDE ! My jaw is still on the floor shocked in amazement. I sound like a kid on the phone but I am a 35 year old business owner that’s aware when you call an attorney IT WILL COST,. So I’m not sure why he thought it would be okay to not listen to my issue AFTER HE ASKED (I wasn’t talking for not even 30 seconds and he cut me off) IF YOU WERE FREE I would not refer this guy to my worse enemy !

James H. Shoemaker actively and tirelessly fought for my case for over two years. It had several setbacks, but he had a crafty plan that played out perfectly. I cannot thank him enough for the time and effort he put into my case. His paralegal, Sue, is prompt and showed compassion for me over the duration of my case. She was quick to reply to questions and concerns. If you need a dedicated defender who cares I highly recommend James H. Shoemaker, Jr. Attorney at Law.

I would highly recommend Jamie ShoemakerJr. Attorney After being in Business for over 50 years and in Hampton Roads for 30 years there has cases where I have needed legal advise and he has resolved several issues usually without ever having to go to Court. He has always responded to all of my calls for help, If there is a situation in an area of Legal Advise he doesn't do he will go out of his way to let me know who he would recommend. Thank You for always being there for us! Ellis Vial Jr. Riverside Motor Works Inc.
