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.

First time Home Buyer

James represented myself and my family in the purchase of our new condo and I couldn't have asked for a better ally throughout the process. He was always open and willing to answer any questions I had and strategize the best plan of action, keeping my best interests at the forefront of every decision.... I am so appreciative to have worked with James and highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling property.

Will put your mind at ease

Whether a first time home buyer or flipper buying a home can be stressful. One way to alleviate some of that stress is making sure you hire a good lawyer. James O’Kelly is that lawyer. Both his knowledge of real estate law and negations skills coupled with a very pleasant demeanor takes away tha...t stress so you can focus on a very big and happy life event. I would not only highly recommend James but will also use him again for any future transactions.

Review of James O’Kelly

James helped me in every aspect of the home buying process. Answered all of my questions throughly, and if he did not know the answer he found it out for me. Would highly recommend him to anyone. No complaints at all.
