Excellent and Patient Real Estate Lawyer

I worked with Mr. Kirton over the past few months as we worked on a complex condo sale that occurred during the COVID pandemic. This caused plenty of starts and stops but Mr. Kirton handled them very well and was able to push to the close. I would definitely work with Mr. Kirton again.

Great Job with Buying and Selling NJ Real Estate

I have worked with Darren for the past two years. Darren helped me buy a home in 2018 and sell a home in 2019. Darren is very thorough, paying attention to all details and helping me as the client understand the pros and cons of every potential change in the contract. I have recommended Darren to ...other family friends. Darren will definitely at the closing table as my attorney for my next real estate matter.

Great

Darren was referred to me by a colleague. I needed someone licensed in New Jersey and my friend knew I had challenging circumstances for my home purchase. My deal was very nuanced and it took 4 months to close. So having an attorney like Darren who was able to help all parties manage their expectatio...ns and keep everyone on point was no small feat. Please keep in mind, this process spanned over Thanksgiving, Christmas and a government shut down. But Mr. Kirton helped make it happen. If you want to close with all of the nuts and bolts in place, call Darren Kirton ASAP.

Condo closing

Mr. Kirton assisted by representing me in the closing purchase of my out-of-state condo. He was extremely knowledgable and very professional during the whole process. Mr. Kirton is very cautious and asked the right questions up to the last documents signed. Recommend him without reservation to all...!

Child Custody Trial (Father Granted Custody of his Daughter from another State)

First of all I live in AL and my custody case was in NJ. I spoke to over 10 Lawyers and most of them were rude and rushed me off the phone. I spoke to my Pastor who reached out to a friend in NJ and the rest is history. When I spoke with Mr Darren Kirton , I couldn't say the same for him . He was p...atient and very attentive to all my questions. He took on my case at the last min. and was able to deliver great results. I am a father who was pursuing custody of my child who lived in a different state than me. I lived in AL and she resided with her mother in NJ. After talking to Mr Darren the first time, I had a good feeling that we would win this case. From the beginning, he proved to be very knowledgeable about family law and was able to give me a quick overview of his plan. The advice that he gave was good and gave me a sense of hope. Darren had 3 days to work on my files and come up with a final plan. Within those three days we were able to speak over the phone and he kept me updated each day with emails and text messages. I finally met Darren for the first time on the day of court and he was dressed professionally and stayed focused throughout the whole trial. In the end we won the trial and I was granted custody of my daughter. I would recommend Darren Kirton for legal representation!! Thanks for all your help and advice.....Keep up the good work.
