About Jim
Jim Rensimer is a litigation and trial attorney with 24 years of experience in complex commercial litigation, personal injury, and wrongful death, claims with high litigation risk, product liability, dram shop and liquor liability, premise liability, contractual disputes, and DTPA cases.
When not working, Jim loves the outdoors with their two dogs, working out to balance his love for eating, occasionally plays what is more recognizable with skilled players as the game of golf, and is SCUBA certified, although has stayed above the surface for years. Jim personifies the "fanatic" in "baseball fan," and is inclined to random outbursts during a good hockey game. Most days, he tests his wife's patience as a living room legend with his love of music, playing good old rock on acoustic guitar. And, after all these years, Jim and his wife still delude themselves into thinking their love for time with their three kids is mutually reciprocated.
