Very Satisfied

James was so helpful through my entire home sale process. Adviced me when I need it and even saved me a little extra money at the very end. Thanks again James

Helping a landlord evict a difficult tenant.

James helped us through a challenging eviction of a difficult and often abusive tenant of an apartment we wished to sell, as we no longer live in NJ. He knew what is possible in NJ landlord/tenant law and how it is applied by Bergen County judges. He advised us conservatively, but ultimately with su...ccess. He was always very responsive in his communications. We wish we had used him from the start in this very unpleasant landlord/tenant situation.

Knowledgeable and Dependable

I recently had the pleasure of working with James Caporrino, a fantastic landlord/tenant attorney, and I can't recommend him enough! When I discovered an issue in my apartment, like most people, I turned to online reviews to find the right attorney for the job. That’s when I found James. From ...my very first interaction, his assistant was incredibly nice and helpful. She scheduled my consultation in a timely manner, which I really appreciated. When I finally met James, he took the time to listen to my concerns and made it a point to explain every step of the process clearly, ensuring that I understood my options and potential outcomes. He laid out a game plan that made perfect sense. I followed his advice to the letter, and when it came time to retain him, I felt confident I was making the right decision. Thanks to his expertise and professionalism, I was able to reach an amicable solution with my former landlord, just as he had predicted. He not only met my expectations but exceeded them.

Wrongful Eviction Case

James is a great attorney that was incredibly helpful with my wrongful eviction case. He walked me through every step of the process along with potential outcomes in great detail during our initial consultation. James kept in contact with me on a daily basis throughout the case and was instrumental ...in helping me achieve a the settlement outcome we were seeking. Would highly, highly recommend to anyone seeking assistance with tenant / landlord cases. 11 out of 10 stars!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
