Best lawyer!
“I’ve hired David for two different cases so far and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about him. He always got back to me via email/phone extremely quickly and made me feel like my case was important to him. He is extremely knowledgeable and knew all the answers and loopholes to problems thrown at him. He’s the type that doesn’t make enemies with the opposing party and instead tries to work out a solution peacefully which I really came to like. When that doesn’t work, he is able AND will be assertive in court.”

Best custody lawyer in WNC!
“David is an excellent and formidable family law attorney. He is also an outstanding human being; a kind, empathetic, and admirable family man. It is because of David that my child and I were able to build a new and wonderful life. I hired David to represent me in a difficulty divorce/custody case, after having a terrible experience with another attorney at the onset of my court dealings. During our first Zoom consultation, I knew immediately that he was the right person to handle my case because he made me feel safe, seen and heard. He exuded a professionalism and confidence that comes from years of experience in the "trenches" of the family court system. It was clear that he knew the laws and local court milieu backwards and forward. Throughout my case, I appreciated that he consistently educated me, applied and executed family law in the best interest of my child. David listened to me with patience and sensitivity. He guided me with authority and direct communication. He and his assistant Caroline were readily available and quick to respond in a helpful manner. David was sensitive to my financial situation, and was always upfront about billing and how to make the best use of our time. During court proceedings, it was clear that David was an upstanding member of the WNC family court system. He was well respected by every person in the buildings - security guards, opposing counsel and judges alike; I believe because he honored their presence with the same respect and professionalism. In trial, David "gets the job done". He is thorough, more than well prepared, knows how to pick his battles for the best outcome of his client, and is tough when needed. Whether I was seated next to him witnessing the opposing side's case, or across from him while I was on the stand, I knew David had my back. I was able to provide my testimony with confidence and bravery because of his leadership. Yes, David helped me to "win" my case; but, he also helped me to grow as a person. I believe I am a stronger woman and a better mother because of him. I hold David in high regard. Absolutely recommend. Thank you.”

Direct and Fair-minded
“I used Jim and his practice to defend my divorce of thirty years back in the summer of 2021. I found Jim to be very direct in his communication, efficient in his methods and fair-minded in his practices. My settlement was reached within seven months of the date of separation and it was favorable from my point of view. Jim was careful not to over-promise and was mindful of how to stay on track and not get distracted by my emotions and unreasonable demands. He used his assistant Dorothy to handle many issues which helped keep down the costs and we moved through the process quickly and without error. It was clear to me that Jim makes a conscientious effort to keep his bills to a minimum by utilizing brief emails for communication when possible instead of dictating letters to be sent.”

Kind and Reassuring
“When a neighbor found out I was getting a divorce, she told me of her experience with Jim Siemens Law Firm and gave me his number. With tears in my eyes, I called him. I was feeling hurt, betrayed, and scared. Having to explain this to a stranger was humiliating. But Jim was kind and reassuring. He kept me grounded and focused on what we needed to do. He was professional and his knowledge of NC Law proved to be invaluable. Jim cares about his clients. He and his team are a family that works beautifully together. I would recommend him to anyone needing this kind of help.”
