Intelligent, Extremely Knowledgeable, Responsive, Completely Fair, Very Thorough, Polite and Professional

My wife and I hired Mr. O’Kelly for the closing on our home. This man is nothing short of a lifesaver. He’s an absolute brilliant attorney who knows the “ins and outs” of the law and abides by professional courtesy all around. The seller of the home we were buying was oddly giving us a very hard time.... They would not respond, their lawyer was not responsive at all, but O’Kelly stayed persistent and did whatever he needed to do to get answers to move the process forward. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have been able to complete the purchase on our home. The lack of care and responsiveness we witnessed from our buyers’ and sellers’ lawyers only further proved that we made the greatest choice by hiring Mr. O’Kelly. He’s young, yet very experienced in closings as he does many. He “ran circles” around the other lawyers and wasn’t afraid to call them out on things they weren’t doing right. He made suggestions and raised serious potential issues during the process that saved my wife and I from being stuck with major future costs as well. We are very happy and thankful for his hard work and dedication. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, and the price is CHEAP compared to what he offers in return.

Jim was an OUTSTANDING attorney! We used him to purchase our first home and we couldn’t be happier with how smooth the transaction went! He was thorough and any questions we had he answered! We truly appreciate the work Jim did for us.

Absolutely Amazing

We recently hired Jim to help us sell our house and buy another. Our house sale & purchase was very complicated and Jim was extremely thorough and organized. He also had our back and ensured we were protected the entire way. He helped keep us on track (which we needed) and was available to answer ...our questions any time we needed. We absolutely could not have done this without him. We would hire him a million times over!!!!

The Best Attorney

I not only recommend attorney James O’Kelly, but I guarantee once you have used his service you too will look no further. He responds in an extreme timely matter, he is a very knowledge, trustworthy person. There is no other attorney that will work as hard for you. My husband and I used Mr. O’Kelly ...to assist us with the purchasing of our first house, he did a very diligent work from a not easy seller and with a house that had some issues. He is a wonderful attorney I could not have been happier and I will never go anywhere else.

Extraordinary

We were referred by our realtor to choose James attorney services and we are more than pleased. We are a first time home buyers and James was very helpful in guiding us at every stage. He was knowledgeable and guided us each and every thing that we need to be aware of when buying a house. He is very ...well organized and completed our closing process in 20 minutes.
