James J. Nolletti
James Nolletti was my attorney for only a short time. I had changed lawyers midstream because my divorce was taking forever to be settled and I was not pleased with how my case was being handled. Mr. Nolletti took over my divorce and was very detailed in his consultation with me. He went above and...

Best attorney in town
Prior to hiring Mr. Nolletti I had 2 attorneys handling my divorce action. The first was not powerful enough and the second was too disorganized. After hiring Mr. Nolletti I had only wished he was my attorney from the start because my divorce would have been over long ago. Both Mr. Nolletti and his l...

Client Review
Jim and his staff helped me through a very long, difficult and public divorce from a prominent Westchester politico. I am impressed with his savvy and strategic sense and his willingness to listen to my opinions as well. I have and will continue to recommend Jim as my first choice to anyone facing a ...
"Exceptional attorney, dedicated to client success. Highly recommended."
"Family law is a very difficult area to practice and that is why a great attorney is needed to fight those heartwrenching battles."
"I have known Jim Nolletti for many years and in my opinion Jim's knowledge of the law, willingness to serve his clients, tenacity and finely honed legal skills make him one of the best attorneys around. As someone who has previously worked in the court system, I have encountered many attorneys over the years. I have seen Jim's expertise, both inside and outside of the court system. In my personal opinion Jim Nolletti is an attorney's attorney. Simply put, Jim Nolletti is a fine attorney who invariably does a wonderful job for his clients."
"Mr Nolletti is highly skilled and knowledgeable in Family Law matters, and has been effective for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. He is aggressive in pursuing his client's legal rights. His work is meticulous and he dedicates himself full-time to his client's matters. Being a lawyer myself, I would not hesitate to retain Mr. Nolletti for family members and/or close friends."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. James is a very fine attorney. I have seen his work first hand, and it is absolutely first rate. He is also a very saavy negotiator and trial attorney, who is very much respected by both the Bar and the Bench. He is partcularly skilled at handling divorce matters involving substantial and complicated assets, and he is always very well prepared. I know that he provides his clients with the utmost of service, and he is always availabel to them."
"Although Jim Nolletti is primarily engaged in family law matters, when I had a need for a criminal defense attorney for a client who had been arrested for a DUI / DWI offense and I sought suggestions as to whom to retain for this work, Jim's name came up with great adulations. Jim was glad to take on this matter and we arranged a date to meet in his office with my client to review pertinent facts. From this meeting there followed phone and e-mail correspondence through two court appearances resulting in the most favorable conclusion possible. Jim was always prompt and thorough with his attention to addressing matters of concern to my client. He is personable, respectful, and clearly knowledgeable and professional in his practice of the law. These are qualities which transcend the matter which I had brought to him and would extend, undoubtedly, to his primary area of practice, being that of family law. I highly recommend his legal services."
