Personal Representation and Legal Philosophy
James Alexander Law works closely with their clients to get the best results. Mr. Alexander’s decades of experience ensure this. Clients are treated like family. Unlike many other personal injury lawyers that advertise, Mr. Alexander personally handles and oversees the cases and clients of the Firm. He is a practicing attorney who represents clients and litigates cases every day, as he has for 41 years. Mr. Alexander has experience with the Judges, Courts, defense attorneys and medical providers throughout Central New York and the Southern Tier.
Mr. Alexander’s belief is that each client deserves personal attention, service and counseling. Many other firms are more about quantity than quality. They collect medical records and push their clients to accept inadequate insurance company offers, often avoiding or refusing to litigate or to take cases to trial. These firms are known as “mills” and do not provide the best representation. They are the opposite of James Alexander Law.
