This month Philadelphia VIP recognizes Jim Beasley, Jr., Partner at The Beasley Firm LLC as it's November 2009 Volunteer of the Month.

Since 2005, Jim has used his legal expertise and trial advocacy skills to benefit VIP clients. Jim’s work for VIP clients spans the realm of auto accidents, consumer finance, and contracts litigation.

Jim often takes on small Municipal Court cases because of their larger significance to low-income clients and their lives. He extends himself and his firm by accepting emergency cases just hours before deadlines.

In one case, Jim successfully had a young client dismissed from a case who was being sued by a health club for over $2500 through a contract she signed without fully understanding the terms.

In another case, Jim represented a disabled client in opening a default judgment and reversing a suspension of her license due to an auto accident her brother caused without her knowledge. Thanks to Jim’s persistence, the matter was resolved and the client was able to have her license reinstated.

Beyond representing clients, lawyers from The Beasley Firm have shared their expertise by mentoring other VIP attorneys in litigation matters.

For his flexibility and inspired advocacy serving the needs of VIP clients, Philadelphia VIP offers our heartfelt appreciation to Jim Beasley, Jr. and his firm, The Beasley Firm.
