This was the worst attorney I have ever had. He was consistently late to my court appearances, and I often felt like he didn't even know who I was on the day of court. I spent thousands of dollars, yet my case never moved forward. It felt like everything required more money, and there was little to no progress. If you didn't pay exactly what he was asking, he wouldn't show up himself and would send someone else to substitute on your case. He repeatedly requested extensions and charged me each time for filing them, which only delayed things further. Overall, this was a complete waste of time and money. A horrible experience. I would strongly recommend staying away from this firm. Stay away from this place all they're gonna do is take your money and promise you the stars but nothing's gonna happen. They're still charging me for something that they did not do. I'm waiting on the stipulations for my child custody. read more

First time I spoke w Atty Jason B. I already felt heard and trust was established. He was calm and receptive. In a few days, I saw results and I am just so impressed. He is professional and so glad he is part of this firm. Keep shining Atty B! You are awesome! A+++++++ read more

Great service and was available for my questions and concerns. They work efficiently and value time and work they spend on your case.

Divorce can be scary, but having Jim by my side provides a comforting presence. His approachable nature, realistic goal-setting, and effort to ease the process make a challenging situation more manageable. read more

Zero stars. James Madden is all lip service until retainer is paid, then it's missed filings, forgetting hearing dates, and late to court. Apparently, you need to call the morning of to remind his office who will then remind Attorney Clueless of hearing that day. If you like having to remind your attorney of important information and enjoy being talked to like you're stupid, stupid...this is your guy. read more

I have had excellent experiences with their Law Professionals helping us achieve our goals and succeed with positive results regarding various legal matters. Attorney Natalie Ortiz and Attorney James Madden are smart, "know the law attorneys." Thus far all of my legal matters have been resolved with success using their expertise. read more

When I got recommended to James Madden I knew I had a mess of a case. A lot of work and direction was needed from a professional. When I say a mess of a case, I mean a MESS. I am blessed to have been directed to James Madden and see what an experienced attorney can do for you. I am beyond grateful to have had Mr. Madden and his team fight for me. He got me more time with my daughter than I initially thought possible, but most importantly he never over promised and under delivered. James's team Bethany, and Karla were available for me at every crucial step(during business hours, and after business hours.) They are dedicated to their job, and know the importance of what their job is, and getting you reunited with your loved one. I cannot thank Mr. Madden and his team enough for reuniting my daughter and I. read more

Let me first say that 5 star reviews should be reserved for companies/services that go above and beyond the level of expectation for their respective clients.....this is exactly what Madden & Associates did for me. Mr. Madden and his firm are very thorough and strategic with their approach to the cases they work on and hands-on with their clients. Mr. Madden was fantastic from the beginning of the process and innately understands he is being entrusted with sensitive (and sometimes highly emotional) matters. He has a "no nonsense" approach and is empathetic.....I always felt he had a genuine/vested interest with my case, which he was able to successfully represent me in court. I could not have been happier with the outcome, and he and his staff were always there for me when I had a question or something came up. 100% would recommend working with/hiring Madden & Associates to handle any family matter related cases and know that you're in good, experienced hands. read more

I hired Mr. Madden in June of 2022 to represent me in my divorce and it was the best thing I could have ever done. He knows what he is doing and goes above and beyond. I have been to court almost a dozen times and Mr. Madden is on time and ready to do what he does best. He fought for me and my kids. After fighting my ex in court for 15 months, Mr. Madden got me sole legal custody of my children. Because of Mr. Madden, I was able to keep my home and retirement. This man went to bat for me and never gave up. His paralegals, Bethany and Rebecca are amazing. Paperwork was always filled out and submitted in a timely manner. I got frequent updates on my case. And I wasn't nickel and dimed. Mr. Madden is worth every penny. read more

This review solely on my consultation because I have not hired this firm yet. I called and asked for an emergency consult and willing to take any appointment the lady said she can probably squeeze me in between 2 appointments. Without getting into details of my case, mine is quite difficult and I had over 10+consults, hired and fired 4 attorneys been going on for almost 4years!! What I liked about this James is that he didn't oversell himself or make false hopes. He wanted to see my case throughly and wanted to discuss with my current attorney before taking it. He did not rush my appointment, even though he had his next appointment waiting, he just wanted to get the facts straight. I felt like he truly cares for me/my situation/somewhat empathize not like some pompous attorneys asking for astronomical retainer before they actually have a grasp of the situation to see if they're capable to mitigate the situation. And yes there's lots incompetent attorneys but Mr James Madden is NOT one of them! Highly recommended! read more

Feeling lucky to have found him! read more

Most empowering experience of my life. Mr. Madden and his incredible team were there when I lost everything, I was at rock bottom. They didn't bs me. They held me accountable for my mistakes. In doing so I was able to get back on my feet, and gain the strength I never knew was possible. Mr. Madden's is a very approachable, kind and down to earth person BUT absolutely FIERCE in the courtroom. I got a second chance in life and my heart is whole again. Thank you for getting my babies back to me. I will never forget this. Honored to work with him and his team. read more

During one of the most toughest times of my life, I had originally hired a different attorney to help with my situation for myself and my kids. It was a BIG mistake and set me back. I was referred to Jim through a friend of mine. Upon my first meeting with Jim, I knew this was the best move for my family. He told me what to expect and what my rights were as a single mother. He didn't sugar coat anything or give me false expectations- rather, he prepared me of the possible outcomes and how we would handle it. I love that Jim was so thorough and understanding. I highly recommend Jim.. read more

I am currently a new client of Mr. Madden's. My case involves child custody and domestic violence wrapped up with the criminal element. Jim really took his time during our consultation to get to know me and my family that accompanied. I felt embarrassed and scared to share my story with someone outside of my family and he made sure that I understood that I was not alone and that things WILL be turned around. He is very kind, transparent, lays everything out for you to understand and makes sure you understand the severity of your case and the different directions it could go in. I feel this is the help I need and the right person to guide me through what is the most important moment of my life. We had our first court movement today and advised me of what could transpire and what we hope for... For day 1 in court it was a success! I really do highly recommend you reach out to Jim and his team for help with your case. He will not stir you in the wrong direction and will make sure you are taken care of. read more
