Our Vision
Mission Statement
At James & Jaramillo, we believe the fight to have your story heard begins with extensive listening without judgement. We understand how destabilising it is to be confronted by a situation where your life, reputation, liberty, and livelihood are at stake. Our clients come from all walks of life. Anyone can find themselves facing a criminal law or family law matter. We understand this is challenging and you may find yourself overwhelmed by a range of emotions. You may have never faced a challenge quite like this before.
You are looking for someone you can lean on, someone you can trust to keep your best interest at heart, who will protect and defend you to the very end. We pride ourselves on collaborating closely with our clients to cut through the complexity, ground your emotions, and to help you make informed decisions on how you can proceed. We will guide you and keep you informed on our strategy as we fight to achieve the best outcome for you, and get your life back on track as quickly as possible.
Our core values are our fundamental beliefs that we live and breathe at James & Jaramillo
Transparency
We believe being upfront and honest is important with our clients. We do not give false hope, we give our clients a detail analysis of their situation based on evidence. Our costs agreements are very clear, we don’t have any hidden surprises.
Fortitude
In the face of adversity, we have a strong will to succeed in all our cases, no matter how complicated they are. Often we are given last minute information, evidence or instructions that change the way we can conduct a case, we are flexible and adaptable no matter what comes our way.
Empathy
We understand that litigation in criminal and family law can be very stressful. Our client’s emotional wellbeing is important to us. We strive to support every client and their families as much as possible. We are a judgment free law firm.
Reliability
No matter the situation you may find yourself in, we have your back. We find working together with our clients as a team leads to the best results. You can also be assured that no matter the size of the case, we will only deliver excellence consistently on all our matters
