“My wife and I would highly recommend Dolowitz & Hunnicutt! On one of the worst days we have ever experienced we reached out to their firm. Their assistant relayed the information to one of the attorneys and we were quickly in contact as our situation was time sensitive. We were scheduled almost immediately. We were treated with kindness and respect as we met with two attorneys and several of their staff. We retained James Hunnicutt as our attorney and would recommend him to anyone. He worked hard to quickly change things around. Not everyone has to take on a Judge to keep the child they love but Jim was knowledgeable and worked proficiently on our case and the immediate threat from the court was resolved. We were able to adopt our sweet baby thanks to the timely and compassionate work of their law firm.”

“Being referred to Jim Hunnicutt by a friend during one of the worst times of my life was a true Godsend. Not only was I going through a contentious divorce, I was also moving to Salt Lake City to have a life threatening surgery. Jim worried about all the small details for me. His office was patient and kind as we were getting the paperwork needed to go forward to the Emergency Alimony Hearing and while hammering out the details for the final divorce mediation. As my ex-husband took me back to court to end his responsibility of paying alimony, Jim moved quickly and efficiently. Jim’s staff contacted me numerous times while I was in the hospital to gather my information since I was unable to do so. Jim prevailed at both trials, saving me financially and emotionally. He knows family law, he is very intelligent, he knows what to do in a court room, and most of all he genuinely cares about his clients.”

“Dolowitz Hunnicutt did an outstanding job on my divorce case. Jim set himself apart from other attorneys from the initial consultation. Jim is a competent and knowledgeable professional who had my best interests in mind as he worked through my case. His team was very prompt in responding to my emails and phone calls and always kept me informed about work that was being done. I felt like Jim and his associates listened to what was important to me and went about accomplishing that as efficiently as possible. I was pleased with the outcome of my case and would highly recommend Jim and his team to anyone looking for an experienced attorney.”

“Hiring Jim was the best decision! I started the divorce process naively thinking I could handle it on my own. I found out that was a very poor decision. A year and a half into the divorce, nothing was moving forward and I felt defeated after every court hearing. I knew it was imperative to find a great attorney that would fight for me. I began my search by reaching out to a local law firm that I trusted. Jim was their number one recommendation to handle my complicated case. Our consultation left me impressed and hopeful that Jim could get my case moving forward and that he would actually fight for me. Hiring Jim was the best decision! I am so grateful for his excellent communication skills, expertise with divorce law, and the compassion that he and his team showed me throughout this difficult phase of my life! I could not have asked for a better team to work with. Thank you!”

“A lawyer with integrity! Rock solid guy. Held me up when I was at the lowest point of my life. He had my back with legal issues while I could deal with my new life going forward. Thank You to James and all his crew!”

“Jim Hunnicutt has represented me for several years on a very complicated legal issue. I am very pleased with the professional and thorough work he always showed. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone as a top notch counselor. I would rate his performance as 5 star.”

“Excellent Family Law Attorney!!!! Jim did an excellent job on my custody case. After working with multiple attorneys and not having very good experiences, I needed a great attorney. I found that in Jim and he did an expert job of giving it to me straight while helping me navigate the stress and pain of going through one of the most difficult times of my life. Jim is very caring and patient but did an excellent job of managing my expectations and emotions. Jim is also very sharp and quick to understand which saved me time and money. He also listened to what I needed and gave appropriate counsel and support. He was always on time and never made me feel less important than other cases he was working on. My case was very complicated and involved relocation difficulties, mediation, protective order issues, working with guardian ad litems, custody evaluations among the many fights back and forth with a hostile ex. In court Jim comes very well prepared and was excellent at preparing me to know what to expect. He is also excellent at communicating with the judges and commissioners and was expert at bringing out case law. From the personal care Jim gave me to the professionalism he brought to my case I would refer him to anyone in need of a true family law advocate."

“Jim did an excellent job representing me! Very open and honest every step of the way.”

“In 2010, when after a 20-year marriage and six children, a divorce became absolutely necessary, the road ahead was frightening and challenging to say the least. After interviewing a few attorneys, I was then referred by a friend to Jim Hunnicutt. After that meeting, it was the first choice in a long time that was actually easy.

Jim’s patience and understanding in that first meeting, were only eclipsed by his precise clarity in explaining to me exactly where I stood and what my options were, going forward. Having someone that can, with confidence and backed by expertise, lay out a plan of action, (even including the unknowns and variables that are a part of any legal proceedings) was a tremendous comfort and safe harbor, especially during a time of such immense turmoil and uncertainty.

For clarity, I had originally offered my husband a simple deal, 50/50 across the board. Walk away, no attorneys, no money, no hassles. But when that husband looks you straight in the eye and says, ‘that he will make sure you lose everything’, your choices and options become much more defined.

Fast-forward a few years. After several ridiculous and fruitless court actions, all of which needlessly initiated by my husband. I can say with complete certainty, that Jim’s knowledge of the law coupled with his zero drama/no surprises philosophy, carried me through the entire process with the greatest chance for fairness and justice, and with the most efficient and least financial cost possible under my particular circumstances. As my advocate, his genuine interest in me, the client, was evidenced time and again by always counseling me appropriately on when not to pursue something that would most likely be a waste of time, money, energy and emotion.

Jim Hunnicutt is a brilliant lawyer, and a wonderful person. His associates and staff are kind, professional and capable. What more can I say.”

“Like many, divorce was something I never expected to confront in my life. Finding an attorney that resonated with me turned out to be difficult to find. After paying for a number of initial consultations, I appreciated Jim's candor with me and interest in being a partner in this process. He was straightforward with me, taught me about the process and was very responsive and innovative in his approach.

Jim and his staff were willing to work with me on my terms and to customize a settlement plan without the lengthy court process and to also customize his retainer and billing to accommodate what I wanted to achieve. He was willing to roll with the process and we reached a very quick settlement that saved both sides a lot of money and time.

The most impressive part of this process, however, was what happened when the settlement was called into question by the other side. This is when Jim's work and advice to me really paid off. Although it cost me some extra money to defend the settlement agreement, Jim was right there with me, confident and willing to stick to the work we had done. I appreciated, again, his candor with me and his clear instruction and transparency which all saved me costs without compromising the strength of our original work. Jim's careful attention to detail, his well-researched advice, and his very impressive letter of opposition and counter motion made the original settlement stick and hold solid.

Jim is an innovative lawyer and a straight talker and his work has proved to stand the test of time for me in my situation. I highly recommend him and his team."

“Jim Hunnicutt is the best divorce attorney in Salt Lake! He came highly recommended by several important people I know. He is even better than expected and a pleasure to work with. A+”

“Best Experience! Jim and paralegal Henna literally saved me from a mental breakdown throughout my recent divorce! They were consummate professionals, while at the same time, caring and down to earth. I can’t thank them enough and highly recommend them!”

“BRILLIANT, Compassionate, Kind, Thorough...SIMPLY THE BEST

Jim came recommended across state lines when our family was facing a very tough relocation custody case that included an abusive, very challenging party on the other side. He has been firm, compassionate, taken the time to really understand the intricacies of our situation, the children, who the other party is, and has been excellent at helping our family navigate this very trying time with humor, kindness and a killer strategy that focuses on the children first, a component that at times feels lost in this process. He knows his stuff, references additional information and draws on the facts to make powerhouse points that bring about positive action. You are in great hands with Jim and his team. And you’ll likely thoroughly enjoy your time with him as you navigate an otherwise miserable landscape.”

“When I was introduced to Jim Hunnicutt I could not have been in a more desperate situation. I had made the unfortunate choice of representing myself in my divorce. I thought it made sense because I needed to save the money and I really wasn’t asking for anything. Actually I was asking for less than the minimum the law allowed. Shortly after my divorce was finalized however, my situation changed unexpectedly and significantly. The good will I had shown during the divorce process was meaningless to my ex-husband. I understand that he was still hurt, but now he was taking it out on my children, and I was powerless to stop him. Jim stepped in and kept my ex-husband from taking everything, actually anything, from us. I only wish I had found him sooner.”

“I spent over $50k on lousy attorneys before hiring Jim. He doesn't have a huge online presence, because he doesn't push it. He has enough business without google. I don't review anyone or anything, but feel I'm doing Salt Lake City a favor here. Jim Hunnicutt is the best attorney I've ever worked with. Brilliant, compassionate, driven to win.

Jim wins. Every single motion, petition, or hearing has gone in my favor. He fights, reasonably. He understands the courts, and is well connected in the local legal community.

Jim is a good human. He talks me down when I am overzealous. He is patient, and deeply compassionate. It's hard to find competitive people who also retain their humanity. That's what you want in a lawyer. Jim is this."

“Jim Hunnicutt, what can I say? A LOT. Going through a divorce is a very hard thing, especially when you think it would never happen to you. The first attorney I hired did not have my best interest at heart and did not have my back, I had to fire him and start over. Not only did Jim Hunnicutt have my best interest in mind, he also had my daughter’s best interest at heart. He had me looking at the big picture, not just what was in front of me. It has been five years since my divorce, but I still go to Mr. Hunnicutt for legal help, and to check in just to say hi!”
