"Alex represented me during an arbitration. I was just a few months into running my LLC as my full-time job and a client tried to break a contract and refused to pay me for my work (a considerable amount--especially for a new business). Alex did a fantastic job of arguing my case in arbitration, which resulted in me getting awarded more than I originally asked for (this included payment for my work, and reimbursement for expenses due to the arbitration). Alex cares about those he represents and his passion really helped put me at ease during that very stressful time. 10/10 I would recommend him and his team!"

"Alex Mejias is a phenomenal attorney! I was really overwhelmed at the thought that someone was suing my small business. Alex stepped in and reassured me of my legal rights and immediately began taking the proper steps to prepare me for my court case. I’m a busy mom of three small children, wife and run a small business. It was a breath of fresh air knowing Alex was willing to meet with me when my schedule permitted. I am proud to share that because of Alex Mejias I won my court case. I recommend James River Law to anyone who is looking for a highly professional attorney!"

"I recently received AMAZING customer service from James River Law Group! I appreciated that I was able to get in touch with the attorney handling my case. His team did not treat me like another number or just "brush off" my concerns. If I EVER need legal assistance again, I will definitely contact Alex Mejias and his team! Thank you all so much"
