Jim is one of the best lawyers I have ever had the pleasure to deal with. I can not speak highly enough about this compassionate man. He was very devoted to my husband and I, he helped us out in every way possible. HIGHLY RECOMMEND JAMES SCOLA for whatever your real Estate issue may be.

Sorry but how can you recommend someone who took the most straightforward practice of refinancing a home and turn it into a ten month saga between two banks, title insurer, bar association and two lawyers? Jim Scola handled the refinance of my home in 2008. A month after signing the paperwork, my old lender still did not receive the payout. Lots of excuses later Jim finally revealed to me that he screwed up and lost the money from my new lender. His accounts were a total mess and he was way overdrawn. This violates many regulations for handling mortgages as I understand it. Mr Scola left me with TWO mortgages both who wanted to be paid. I hired another lawyer and lost more then $4000 in legal fees and a lot of sleep over this. We filed a complain with the Massachusetts Bar association and I believe that he was given some kind of legal warning but that is it. Mr Scola on many occasions said he would pay me back for the legal costs but he did not come through and is now ignoring my phone calls.
