"I do not recommend this attorney, Darryl Scipio. Although Mr. Scipio has a nice demeanor and is well versed in real estate law, he is a poor communicator and lacks follow-through. I am going to describe a recent incident in as consolidated a way as I can. I inherited a tenant when closing on a Multifamily home in NJ. Mr. Scipio, my attorney, arrived to the closing extremely late after all the documents had been signed (he did let me know he would be late but was 30 minutes later than he said he would be after the title company followed up with a call). I’d expected Mr. Scipio to have all the transfer documentation ready for my inherited tenant, but when I asked him for the documentation, he not have it, and then proceeded to tell me that he did not know there was a tenant there and that he thought that the house was vacant. I was stunned to hear this, to say the least. The attorney who has processed my entire deal should be aware of this vital information. In addition to this oversight, I never received the significant security deposit that was supposed to be transferred to me from the previous owner, and he did not coordinate the removal of debris from the basement in my property (for context - the sellers legally have to the deliver the property swept clean with no debris or provide a concession to cover it). I am now left responsible for debris removal which is very costly as the items left behind are large, bulky, and need specialized handling. I have been following up consistently with very little communication from Mr. Scipio or his assistant, and am afraid that I will also be left responsible to return the costly security deposit to the tenant (Mr. Scipio did let me know that I wouldn’t be responsible - however, there was written documentation sent to the tenant that the security deposit was already transferred to me, which is untrue). There were several other instances throughout this process where I was unhappy with his performance, but I do not have time or energy to detail them. I’m very sorry to have to give a poor review to this lawyer, but I cannot recommend him and would not want anyone else to go through the experience I’ve had."

"The time and effort applied to my case far exceeded my expectations. His approach was concise and without any hesitation. He commanded the process of executing case law in a way that kept me hopeful and positive with my decision to choose him to represent me. I continue to reach out to him first with any and all legal matters and questions."

"Darryl Scipio is a knowledgeable and skilled transactional law practictioner."

"I recommend this brother for your real estate needs. He has his own firm. He’s on top of everything, and he’s not a push over. He’s always ready to protect and fight for his clients. He’s also very professional. I would say he’s the best in the business when it comes to good business."

"Helped me with my business formation and documents- professional and super friendly in answering my million questions. Turn around was very quick as well. Highly recommended!"
