• Delete, possibly a speedy a7. I'd normally go with a userfy in this case, but it's not appropriate for a user page, either. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:27, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Delete - Obviously an advertisement for the lawyer himself. Fails Bio. The creator is the lawyer himself. Cool Blue^{Light my Fire!} 23:45, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:BIO. JRHorse 01:35, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Keep a specialist in his field,as proved by the refs provided. Its not a familiar field to most of us, but that's all the more reason for considering carefully before we delete. Free of most spam. DGG 05:39, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - I don't agree at all with DGG above; there's nothing to indicate he's any more of a specialist in his field than any other insurance lawyer, and he's not been involved in any high profile cases etc which might make him of interest. I can't see any circumstances at present where a user would ever search for "James Davis" with the intention of finding him. - iridescenti (talk to me!) 17:01, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
• comment Any reader who sees his name in connection with a case might well want some background information. DGG 01:44, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Comment That could be said of anyone who's ever appeared in court - are we going to have a page for every lawyer, police officer & criminal? - iridescenti (talk to me!) 15:04, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

DGG, that's what an individual's state bar is for. It's also what a personal web page is for. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 19:35, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
