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.

Best Real Estate Attorney in NJ!!

James O'Kelley is absolutely amazing. I have hired James attorney services in buying a home to help me with attorney review and close the deal. His in-depth knowledge and experience about the real estate review process and the entire home buying process combined with his exceptional level of deta...il, organization, responsiveness, and ability to move things along efficiently and with care and compassion has been tremendously helpful in making the entire process so much easier and giving great peace of mind. I would never have imagined going through the house buying process without James' help. He explained to us each and every word of the legal papers, papers of closing and clauses in this transaction in lay-man language , making it super easy for us. The home inspection report had a bunch of repairs to be done by the sellers. James meticulously proposed each and every item to the sellers and was able to successfully get the responses in our favour. This was a tremendous win for us , in such a sensitive market. I would highly recommend James O'kelley's attorney services to whoever is looking for a genuine attorney.

Responsive and Knowledgable

James was a wonderful lawyer representing us for our home purchase. He answered any and all questions we had, made great recommendations, and got us through closing within only 45 days!

The best attorney I could ask for

I can't imagine my home-buying journey without this wonderful guy, Jim. Not only did he represent us in purchasing our first home, but he stood by us at every step and literally helped us close on our first home in a record time of 6 weeks. He is all ears when it comes to talking to his clients, he l...istens to them, understands the situation, and promptly acts on it in the best interest of his client. He literally went above and beyond to help me get things done on time without any hiccups. He takes a genuine interest in the client and makes sure that his client gets everything that was promised. The best part was the closing, he goes through all the documents and explains each and every tiny bit of detail to make sure you understand before you sign anything. I would highly recommend Jim, to anyone looking to buy their first home. Thank you so much, Jim! You are the BEST!

Great attorney . I would highly recommend.

James O’Kelly is extremely professional and is always accessible. He handled 3 personal transactions of mine and everyone was done expeditiously and represented me as a buyer and seller. He listens to the clients questions and concerns to figure out a fair way to resolve any issues. It’s refreshing... to have an attorney who is honest and is always looking out for his clients needs. And gets the deals done.
