By James L. Cunningham Jr., Esq.
Welcome clients of Seaman & Seaman Law.
As Wareham Seaman, Jr. embarks on a well-deserved retirement, we at CunninghamLegal are both honored and excited to continue his remarkable legacy in the practice of law. Recognizing the significance of this transition, we are fully committed to upholding the same standards of excellence, integrity, and personalized care that you have come to expect.
The responsibility of serving Wareham’s clients is especially meaningful to me personally, as Wareham and I have known each other for 15 years. We are both pilots and both second generation lawyers—and I know it is a true honor that Wareham has chosen our firm to continue his life’s work.
In his letter to clients, Wareham said:
Attorney Wareham Seaman, Jr.
“I am delighted to announce that attorney Jim Cunningham and his team at CunninghamLegal will be taking the helm of my practice. Jim, a passionate and dedicated second-generation attorney, embodies the values and expertise that Seaman & Seaman has always stood for. Like me, Jim is a California State Bar Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Trust, and Probate Law and Jim’s qualifications are exemplary. His vibrant energy and commitment to our clients’ needs make him and his firm the perfect successor.”
