Mr. Newsome is very compassionate and understanding when it comes to matters of law. He explained things clearly, worked to achieve the best outcome for my family, and was understanding of our special circumstances. He is a great attorney and compassionate man..... I would definitely use his service s in the future.

MJ · family law ·
John is an amazing attorney who really cares and will fight for you. He took the time to understand not just the legal side of my case, but the emotional side as well. He went the extra mile and it was obvious he genuinely cared about the outcome. Thanks to his expertise in the law, I was able to get through one of the most difficult times in my life with peace of mind. I’m deeply grateful for everything he did and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a family law attorney who truly cares.
- ★★★★★The very best
Benny · family law ·
hired John Newsome when I was facing serious child support issues and possible jail time. He stayed on top of everything, fought for me, and got my principal reduced to zero. He kept me out of jail and negotiated a great deal. If you need someone who knows what he’s doing, he’s the lawyer to call.
- ★★★★★Hire John Newsome now!!!
David ·
You might as well call him Uncle John, this lawyer treats his clients like family. He really saved me and my life, got me the best possible outcome for my situation and he was there every step of the way and stayed in constant communication. I won’t hire any other attorney, John is the man!!!
- ★★★★★Excellent Attorney
Chris ·
Mr. Newsome was excellent to have in my corner. He takes the time to patiently listen, understand and then thoroughly tells you your options and what to expect moving forward. Anytime I reached out with a question, I never felt like I was bothering him or was in a rush. He continually updated and fol lowed up with me without asking. Mr. Newsome provides excellent legal and client relationship services.
- ★★★★★Hit and run by a wrecker driver! Personal Injury
Joe G. · personal injury ·
I came to Jamika by recommendation of friend. I had been involved in a hit and run with a commercial wrecker. This was a tough case that required a lot of investigative research. I gave her the license plate and she did the rest. She is a cut above the rest and will handle your business with absolute professionalism, and the aggression of a pit bull. I would highly recommend to friends and family.
- ★★★★★Ms. Wester
Cynthia ·
Ms.Wester was available every time I had a question and kept me informed every step of the way. I would hire her again.
- ★★★★★T-bone
Brian · personal injury ·
I hired Ms Wester to represent me in my car accident. She made sure my car was taken care of (which most lawyers won’t do), rental, and our medical care was top tier. We always had direct access to her which was the opposite of what I’ve experienced in the past. I would definitely hire her again.
- ★★★★★Hire her!
Aliyah · personal injury ·
Me and my sister were in really bad car accident April of last year 2024, we reached out to Ms.Jamika in concerns of us trying to get compensation from the terrible accident. Our car had been TOTALED and we did not know who to go to or where to start! But by the grace of GOD Ms. Jamika saved the YEAR by helping us get stimulation, treatment, medicine and etc. She also, helped us get a new car and extra money in our pockets. She was communicative during the whole process and understanding, when we had questions she answered them to the best of her ability and the money was sent out in a reasonable amount of time, it’s s 2025 now and we have been able to get back on our feet, hire her for your case you will not regret it. Thank you Ms.Jamika we need more people like you in this world.!!!<3

- ★★★★★Incredible Lawyer
Robin · criminal defense ·
I was arrested, unfortunately, for the 3rd time in almost 18 years for theft. Each arrest being almost 6 years apart to the day. After meeting James he treated me with humility and grace despite my wrong doings. He truly tapped into why did I do what I did, what led me down this road, and was able t o finally uncover something I was so badly needing to heal. I was in and out of the foster care system growing up with documented abuse for years- I was able to share this information with James and he connected me with the perfect therapist. I had hired two lawyers previously who never even cared to ask about my past- and had they I may have had a chance to heal sooner. Given my history and psychological explanation, and with the help of James and his knowledge, we were able to get my case DISMISSED. (Which is beyond rare given prior arrests) God led me to James and I will forever be in debt for his help not only with my case but to better my entire life. He has been an incredible light in the legal system. He is an outstanding lawyer, but an even better human being who is doing what he can to truly HELP people.
- ★★★★★Domestic Violence Assault
Kennedy · criminal defense ·
I had a situation where a violent ex girlfriend assaulted me multiple times over the course of a year and when I finally pressed charges on her, she pressed charges on me in return, lying, and acting as if I was the aggressor. Mr. Sullivan was able to prove to the court that I was a victim and that she lied to the police. In a very short amount of time, Mr. Sullivan was able to get the felony charge dismissed at county and state level. Mr. Sullivan worked with me at all hours of the day, and made sure to sincerely empathize with my situation, enough to the point where the court saw the same thing. I am very impressed and pleased with the work he’s done for me. My life would be in a totally different place right now if it wasn’t for the dedication it took in order to get my case dismissed.
- ★★★★★Expungement
Haris · criminal defense ·
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Mr. Sullivan. As soon as I called he immediately called me back and consulted with me my need for expungement of a case of mine awhile back. I needed this done as a medical personnel and he quoted me a very affordable price for his expungement service. I highl y value his help and would recommend to him everyone.
- ★★★★★Family Violence
Jesse · criminal defense ·
In November of 2018 I was arrested for the first time in my life. I spent time in jail for family violence and it was a moment of failure for me. I feared that my future and everything I had worked for over the course of my life would be in jeopardy. I’m not rich but I wasn’t going to risk my future any further, so I reached out to Mr. James Sullivan. I found Mr. Sullivan by googling for family violence lawyers. It was a Sunday and his name popped up showing that he worked on Sundays, so I gave him a call and we spent about an hour talking on that Sunday evening. Mr. Sullivan turned out to be the best decision I made in 2018. I told him I would be pleading not guilty and he told me he could possibly get the case dismissed, which was a relief to my stress. We went through 4 settings together, which required little to no work on my part. At each of our meetings Mr. Sullivan showed great professionalism, positivity, dependability, passion, and most of all he showed me that I could trust him. We talked about life, goals, and achievements. He shared his experiences and wisdom with me, recommending changes to certain aspects of my life. Overall, James Sullivan not only helped me legally, but he connected with me as a human being, and for that I will be forever grateful. My case was dismissed in exchange for community service and I left this experience as a better person. I 100% and wholeheartedly recommend Mr. James Sullivan as an attorney.
- ★★★★★Compassionate and Understanding

I highly recommend James Sullivan as a juvenile defense attorney. My son was wrongfully arrested for retaliation of a peace officer and assault of a family member. Both of these charges are very serious felony charges. The juvenile system treated him as if he were already a convicted criminal, wit hout hearing the full story. I read several reviews of many different juvenile attorneys and I firmly believed that James Sullivan was the best around. I called him and he spent over an hour on the phone with me. He listened to my heartbreaking story of an awesome young man that was about to have his life turned upside down for something that was beyond his control. We met in person the very next Saturday. He accommodated my schedule and planned to meet my entire family that evening. James Sullivan interviewed all of us and was very kind and patient. My son had been physically and mentally abused by his father for several years and acted in self defense against an intoxicated, grown man. Without getting into details of the nature of the abuse, Attorney Sullivan was able to get BOTH felony charges dismissed. He saved my son's life and now he has an awesome opportunity heading into adulthood!
