QUIT CLAIM Process

Being a Connecticut resident , having just bought a house in Naples, I needed to Quit Claim my Naples house to my Trust. Atty Oliver discussed the process with me, advised me to make sure my Florida bank was clear about the process, consulted with my CT Trust Atty and cleared the paperwork for proper... filing through the bank in Florida . I was very pleased with all aspects of the transaction. Kudos to the office staff for their polite and professional communication to keep this process going . Thank you very much Jim

Best advise and gets you results!

If you need the most thorough and pragmatic legal advise, Jim Oliver is one of the best in the business. Jim has advised me with contracts, real estate, and employment legal matters. He is an expert with providing you the best legal advise to protect your interests. Jim made himself available to me ...late into the evening and on weekends.

Blessed to have him on my team

I have hired Jim M Oliver on several real estate transactions and disputes. He has reviewed and drafted several agreements that were fairly complex. Other attorneys presented with the same issues faltered. He is brilliant, organized, tenacious and always available. When you speak to him he listens an...d always thinks outside the box to protect your interest. In short the man is an "animal". I'm am glad he's on my side. If you have any legal issues you need to retain him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
