Attorneys From Diverse Backgrounds Focused on Excellence

For nearly four decades, our Founding Partner, Attorney James J. Bickerton, Esq. has advocated for and represented individuals in personal injury, wrongful death, and medical malpractice matters, consumer class actions, real estate and commercial litigation, products liability, professional responsibility matters, First Amendment and defamation cases, and in high profile litigation involving employment and government issues. Attorney Jim Bickerton was born abroad and lived in several different countries before arriving in Hawaii as a teen and attending Roosevelt High School. Because of these experiences, Jim has a unique understanding and appreciation of the American legal system. Recognized as one of the “Best Lawyers in America” and one of “Hawaii’s A+ Attorneys,” Attorney Jim Bickerton’s list of former clients includes a mayor, a governor, a university basketball coach, a princess, and many nationally recognized business entities.

Managing Partner, attorney Bridget G. Morgan-Bickerton, Esq., focuses her practice in the areas of consumer class actions, unfair competition, and commercial and bankruptcy litigation. Born and raised in Seattle, Bridget pursued her legal education at Berkeley Law before moving to the islands to serve a two-year AmeriCorps term with the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii. Named as a “Rising Star” by Super Lawyers earlier in her career, Attorney Morgan-Bickerton pursues justice for consumers, workers, and other ordinary people in cases against hotels, restaurants, and other businesses. She is equally experienced with and comfortable representing public figures who find themselves caught up in high-profile litigation.

Contact Bickerton Law Group for a Consultation

Our attorneys urge you to contact us as soon as you realize that you may be facing a legal issue, rather than attempting to solve matters on your own. A delay in hiring an experienced attorney to represent you can undermine the strength of your claim and prevent an efficient resolution. To get started on your case, call us now at 808-599-3811 or contact us online. Our offices are located in the Topa Financial Center on Fort Street in downtown Honolulu, but we represent clients throughout Hawaii. Many cases are accepted on a contingency fee basis, which means that we get paid only when your case settles or results in a favorable judgment.
