"As a fellow attorney, I can say that James is an exceptional lawyer. He is generous with his time and counsel, provides critical legal insights, and understands both the commercial and legal aspects of building and managing a successful business. I recommend him highly for both his valuable expertise and genuine concern for his clients."
"James is a dynamic attorney to whom I would confidently refer clients to for legal assistance in corporate and litigation matters. He is a knowledgeable, creative and skilled litigator who fearlessly advocates for his clients. He is not only a top-notch attorney but also a pleasure to work with."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney DeCristofaro is a dedicated and hard working attorney. I have worked with him on several projects and all had positive outcomes. In the world of civil litigation it is difficult to resolve any matter with 100% success and Attorney DeCristofaro does a fantastic job of pleasing his clients with positive outcomes."
"James is a strategic thinker who anticipates twists and turns that accompany complex litigation, thinking several steps ahead. He has the important ability to decipher and focus on what matters to move cases forward efficiently and - most importantly - effectively. He brings key insights and the ability to cut through the "noise" and posturing to get at what matters to succeed. I have had the great pleasure of working side by side with James at a former law firm and would not hesitate to turn to James for bet-the-company litigation or other important litigation matters, especially where strategic thinking, and judgment, are key. I consider James an exceptional lawyer and effective advocate. - Jerrold L. Bregman (licensed to practice law in New York and California)"
"James Decristofaro is a top notch lawyer with a wide array of legal expertise. I worked with him at both Curtis Mallet and Morrison Foerster and saw him take the lead on Corporate, Litigation and Bankruptcy matters. He is a personable, efficient lawyer who is at his best in many areas, but particularly in the setting of in-person negotiations. This is a guy you want on your side."
"I’ve known James for at least five years and he is one of the best attorneys I know. He puts an enormous amount of effort into understanding the needs of his clients and brilliantly tailors his litigation strategy to meet those needs."
"James is an incredible advocate for his clients, and can navigate matters in both federal and state courts with expediency and proficiency. The personal attention that he gives to his cases serves as an example to all attorneys."
