Hired Attorney Carmine Lo Faro

I can not say enough about my positive experience in hiring Carmine LoFaro as my lawyer. From the first phone call Mr. LoFaro was professional, kind, attentive, understanding and knowledgable. Throughout the time on retainer, Mr. LoFaro kept me updated as to what was happening in my case, returned messages promptly and had a way of making me always feel at ease. The work I had to do was minimal, as he took the reigns overall but with the ability to still explain what was happening step by step. I was so happy with the outcome of my case and the manner in which I was represented. I would absolutely use Carmine LoFaro and his team again in any legal matter I may come across as no one else could match the level of comfort he provided during a difficult time. He is absolutely the best in the business!

Had just closed on the sale of a house. I live out of state and Carmine handed everything in a professional manner. He kept me informed through the entire process and explained everything along the way. Would definitely hire him again. Went above and beyond my expectations.

Carmine was fantastic throughout the entire transaction. Always accessible, professional and respectful of my time, good at making the complex seem simple, and overall a good value for his services. I would highly recommend him to represent you when you are selling your home or if in need of any other legal service that he provides.

In my personal and professional life I have in one way or another had experience with dozens of attorneys. Some are much better than others. None has been faster to communicate with me nor more caring than Carmine. He has a detailed knowledge of what clients should and should not expect to gain from litigation. After gathering facts about an issue Carmine has provided me with a candid opinion of how to proceed even if his opinion is not to proceed further. Carmine has the experience, education

 
Response from Carmine Lo Faro
It is working with clients, particularly licensed professionals like you, that make the practice of law so worthwhile. Thank you!

We found Mr. Lofaro by Googling real estate attorneys and read his excellent reviews. We decided to use his services because of those rave reviews. In the past in dealing with real estate attorneys, those firms had their paralegals handle everything, but this time around, we wanted an actual lawyer handling our closing and real estate transaction. Mr. Lofaro was knowledgeable, and impressively quick in responding to all our questions, e-mails and phone calls. We never waited long for him to respond to anything we sent his way. He was professional, courteous, and pro-active in dealing with our entire real estate transaction from beginning to closing. He allayed any concerns we had. Not only that, he never made us feel as though any of our questions were silly or unimportant. At our closing, Mr. Lofaro was very prepared and efficient; thus it was quick and painless. We have been through two other closings before and neither of them were as impressive as his handling of ours. My husband and I were VERY pleased and we highly recommend using Mr. Lofaro’s services. If we ever need an attorney again, we would definitely use Mr. Lofaro’s services again without hesitation. He did an excellent job, made us feel super comfortable and explained every last detail to us. Use his services without hesitation!

I was a first time buyer who made an offer before securing an attorney... so I was not really on top of things as I should have been... Carmine came highly recommended and reassured me from our first conversation. He explained the process thoroughly and I knew I was in good hands from that point on. He was on top of things throughout the process and made sure to include me in all communications, he was very responsive to emails/phone calls. I will definitely recommend his services in the future.

 
Response from Carmine Lo Faro
I apologize for this belated response. Having wonderful and cooperative clients such as yourself makes my job easy, and most importantly, professionally satisfying. I am grateful, not only for your kind and generous words, but the opportunity to serve you.
