James Patrick Jordan is an associate attorney at Blank Kim Injury Law, representing injured people in serious and sensitive cases. Before entering private practice he served as a government attorney for the District of Columbia, which gave him a working view of how institutions handle litigation from the inside.
He practices injury law because he sees it as one of the more direct ways to help people who have been overlooked or failed by other systems.
What James handles
- Medical malpractice
- Sexual assault and child abuse claims, brought civilly
- Dog bite injuries
- Motor vehicle and truck collisions
- Explosions and catastrophic injury
- Assault claims arising from rideshare trips
Abuse claims are handled confidentially. We do not name individuals on this website and we do not publish clients’ stories.
From government practice to injury law
As a government attorney for the District of Columbia, James worked inside the kind of institution that injury claims are often brought against. That experience is useful in cases where the defendant is a public body, a hospital system or a large company, because the obstacle is usually procedural before it is factual.
