A Great Experience

Buying a home and selling a home at the same time can be extremely stressful. Thankfully, we hired Jim to guide us through both transactions and he reduced our stress considerably. I can't say enough about how easy he made everything. He patiently answered our numerous questions, and was always av...ailable to us. We highly recommend Jim.

Best attorney ever!

I needed to sell my home and buy a new home simultaneously. Atty O'Kelly made it seem so easy. Even when we ran into hiccups he still managed to get me out of my home on time. This would have never been possible with any other attorney. I would wake up to updates and sometimes late at night receive ...updates. Mr. O'Kelly knew how important this was for our family and treated me as if we were his family too. You will never get the promts responses and the dedication from anyone else. Mr. O'Kelly is here to stay on any future transactions with me or anyone within my family. I would 1,000% recommend him to everyone!!

Always professional, and reliable, Jim takes his time addressing each clients questions and concerns, offers his guidance every step of the process. His cli...ents are his top priority.

Thank you Jim!

I hired Jim to be my attorney with a real estate closings. He did two closings for me in a matter of five months. He also represented me for the purchase of my newer home. For the five months that I’ve dealt with Jim he’s been nothing but professional kind and treats me as if he would treat his famil...y if they needed an attorney.. I never had to once worry about if he followed through with with anything that needed signatures, more correspondence, phone calls, dealing with the mortgage broker and helping me with a solar panel issue I had if you want somebody that is professional kind thorough and has your best interest as if you were his family then then you want to use Jim.

Never again

We used him as our realtor referred us to use him. At our closing, he advised us to contact him if we needed anything regarding the house. There was a massive leak that was discovered that was not stated in the inspection. I contacted him and he just flat out ignored me multiple times until I called ...him out that he was avoiding me. He finally answered and stated he had a personal emergency and that’s why he was not answering me. He then continued to ignore all of my calls, emails and texts. I would not recommend James D O Kelly to anyone and I regret that he received my business.
