Bridget was an excellent attorney to have on my side. Her personality was a very comforting presence in court during a very stressful time. She was very thorough in her work and paid close attention to details. The stipulations she wrote were very well written and protected my position on court matters. She made excellent recommendations in writing our stipulations., based on her many years of experience in family courtrooms. I would absolutely recommend hiring her as your attorney!

Very good, helped me with all the questions I had and even more!
Lied on court document, unresponsive, actually made our case worse over course of a year by missing deadlines and not responding to opposing counsel. Took almost FOUR months to get our file from her after she was fired and she refuses to respond to a December billing dispute when our bill was padded with excessive charges including being charges because we emailed and told her associate to feel better when she was ill! Had to file BAR complaint. She's disorganized and doesn't take responsibility when she forgets or gives the wrong information. Acted like a child when she decides she's not on your side anymore. Pay more for a real attorney because you get what you pay for with this one.

Bridget was very responsive and very helpful in a time where we were most unprepared and in desperate need she was up beat and positive though our experience and even though we didn’t fully go through with our case we would recommend to anyone that’s looking for someone understand, patient and smart and helpful 😊
Great communication, I hired her for two different cases and I am happy so far with her work.
Incredible, will recommend to everyone needing an attorney.
I had an exceptionally poor experience with Bridgett James and her firm. I paid a significant retainer expecting consistent communication and proper legal advocacy, but throughout the process, it was nearly impossible to get in touch with her. I constantly had to follow up just to receive basic updates. She frequently failed to respond in a timely manner and ultimately did not prioritize the case as she was always on vacation. I strongly urge anyone considering this attorney to do thorough research. I regret hiring this firm and would not recommend them to anyone seeking reliable legal support.
Although my case did not go as I had hoped (no fault of hers)Bridgett was extremely responsive while preparing for court. During court she advocated for me to the best of her ability.
I was represented today by Beth McCarthy and honestly, she is the best! I am sincerely very grateful to her, honestly they are the best! by Willis Silva.
I am In the process of filing a complaint with The Attorney and Consumer Assistance Program (ACAP) which is part of the Office of the Bar Counsel of the Board of Bar Overseers. Bridgett filed court forms such as subpoenas, motions for contempt, etc., without proofreading anything prior to filing. She used wrong dates, wrong spelling, and wrong address. Bridgett would constantly promise to do something by a certain time but fail to do so. She misplaced my ex's financial disclosure form given to her while in court and it was never submitted into our case file. My ex's attorney and another attorney of mine were both unsuccessful in getting Bridgett to return their emails/calls. Bridgett told me I would be refunded by 5/23/24. Then she told me it would be by 5/29/24. Then she told me by 6/2/24. Now I am forced to contact The Bar Association Fee Arbitration and The Clients' Security Board. I'm happy to share my experience with Bridgett in depth should you wish to know more. I highly advise you not to hire Bridgett as your attorney.
I was actually able to save money because we had two court dates and we were able to settle in the first hearing. I hired last minute. She was sympathetic and had a great sense of humor which was uplifting and empowering. Smart and quick. I couldn’t be more pleased.
Was told she would call Monday, but could reach out on the weekend. I messaged early Saturday with a very desperate question. It is now midnight on Monday and there has been no response.
I only spoke to Bridgett once and she gave me resolution chills. We were on the phone for a little over 20 minutes only. I can truly appreciate a professional that knows what direction to go after a short conversation. Much appreciate you Bridgett!!
I came to this lady thinking she would really help me . I explained my case she took my money I pay her and wasted my time. how does a whole lawyer not know when you doing a dui case you need to to have the judge sign to reinstate the license my case was done In July . I texted her she act like she didn’t know what was missing i had to go asking around . Wait she knew but acted dumb and pretended not to know had me running around trying to figure it out . I call her and beg her which I shouldn’t have to do cuz I payed her. she play a death ear because she had already took my money so my case didn’t matter to her . Especially being black because i know for a fact if my skin was her color my case would have been done fast . I should have just stay with the court lawyer instead of her. I will call this lady she won’t even give me a call back because she had a whole plan . As a black person I won’t want any of my people to work with her she take your money and do her own thing . But thank god everything is done . I personally would not recommend her to anyone.
Has definitely shown she is true to her word, I appreciate all the help she has been able to give me Would highly recommend
My case could not have gone any better due to Bridgett’s help. Everything I needed it was handled right away. I’m totally confident in her ability, and if anything else ever comes up she will be my first go too.
I don't know if it gets worse than Bridgett, but the worst mistake was to hire Bridgett. She is a careless attorney who is constantly making excuses instead of having solutions. During the initial conversation, she was decent with following up, but as time went along, she went months without contacting me; every time I followed up, she would schedule our meetings last minute. And eventually, I started noticing more signs that she was neglecting my case to the point where I had to choose to move on to another attorney. Please think twice before wasting your time, energy, and money on this woman.
She was attentive at our first contact and listened to my case, but the execution was disappointing. The communication dwindled after I paid my fees. I was represented by a different lawyer who neither prepared me nor was prepared for my case.
Bridgett and her team are amazing to work with. They are kind, caring and truly value you as a human being. I would recommend Bridgett and her team for any law needs. I’m so grateful ❤️
