James Cronin enjoys defending small businesses. He began developing his understanding of the struggles and challenges facing small business owners while operating a landscaping company in high school. His passion is working with people of all backgrounds to reach common ground; an approach he takes daily in his practice.
While in law school, James was a Student Representative on the Student Bar Association and served as Vice President of the Business Law Association. He also did research for an adjunct professor that culminated in a publication of his Law Review Comment addressing alternative methods for businesses to raise capital for growth and innovation.
A transplant from Raleigh, James enjoys spending time on the coast. He is an avid fisherman, surfer, and boater.
