Who?
You might know me as "James Barger" or "Jamie Barger."
You might have met me at
Temple University Beasley School of Law, or at the
University of Florida, or at
Nease High School.
Or, maybe we worked together at
Landstar System,
America Online (AOL),
the Federal Reserve,
TPI, or a
small newspaper.
Then again, you might have run into me somewhere in my home neighborhood of
Chestnut Hill.
About Me
I live in the
Chestnut Hill neighborhood of
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
with a wonderful & patient wife (Charline),
two hilarious and delightful toddlers (a 4-year-old son and a 2-year-old daughter)
and an enthusiastic dog (Maggie).

I am attending the Temple University Beasley School of Law
in Philadelphia. I had merit scholarship offers at a few other law schools,
but I chose Temple Law because of its excellent reputation in the region and
great job placement success in Philadelphia,
a city that Charline and I really like.
My family's roots
run deep in Pennsylvania, so I have always liked the idea of living here.
What's Next?
My family and I
will be moving to Pensacola, Florida, where I'll be the newest lawyer at a very successful
civil litigation firm that mostly handles mass torts. Even though we'll miss Chestnut Hill and Philadelphia, we
are looking forward to living among the pristine beaches and relaxing environs of the Pensacola Bay area.
