I have had the pleasure of working with James since May 2013 in forming my engineering consulting business. I would highly recommend James Blake to anyone seeking legal counsel for small business related issues. James has advised me on a multitude of issues since I started my company, including but not limited to: business startup and formation, negotiating business contracts, putting in place independent contractor agreements and work orders, intellectual property advisement, non-competition agreements, lead generation, and general business development advice. He is extremely accessible by phone and email, is always quick to respond. When he has given an estimated date for a deliverable, he always delivers on time or early. In addition, he has taken the time to get to know me and my business, and understand some of the highly technical work that I do. As a technical consultant, it was important to have someone who could help take the technical work that I do and translate that into a business model that is attractive to potential clients. Working with James has been an excellent experience, and has served my business very well.

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Blake on a business venture and was very impressed and pleased with his professionalism. He has a wealth of knowledge and was very straight forward with my options. Mr. Blake saved me from making a mistake that would have cost me greatly in the long run. I have worked with other attorneys in the past, but now, Mr. Blake is the only one I call on for all my needs. I would definitely recommend THE BLAKE LAW FIRM to anyone. Pat Patrick

I used The Blake Law Firm to help me with an intellectual property issue that I had with a former employer. James was very thorough and always took the time explain everything to me. It was definitely money well spent, and I won't hesitate to use him again if the need arises.

I am a minority member in a Texas LLC and I required some legal advice regarding the forced sale of our company(and therefore my interest in that company) undertaken by the majority members to an international conglomerate. Upon reading the reviews on here I sent James an email informing him of my situation and he immediately replied the next day and we arranged to have a conversation that same day. During that call James gave me very valuable advice on how to proceed next, informing me of all the possible directions I could take. I was surprised at the amount of valuable information he gave me despite not being a client yet. From that phone conversation, I can tell that James is man of integrity as he looked at my situation as if it were happening to him and I could tell he had my best interests at heart. From my interaction and the honest advice I received, I look forward to working with him in the coming months.
