Leyden Capotorto was formed in May 2010. It is the successor corporation to both the Lomell Law Firm and prior to that Lomell, Muccifori, Adler, Ravaschiere, Amabile & Pehlivanian. These firms have continuously served the community since 1957. Through the years we have been privileged to serve individual, corporate and government clients and have earned a reputation for providing scholarly, dedicated and aggressive representation. Four of our former members have become judges in the Superior Court of New Jersey, with one having served in the Appellate Division.
We trace our roots to our founder, Leonard G. Lomell, who is a decorated combat Veteran of W.W.II (Distinguished Service Cross, Silver and Bronze Stars among numerous other honors) who served with the legendary Army Ranger 2nd Battalion. We are extremely proud of Mr. Lomell's lifetime achievements and in 2000 the firm name was shortened to Lomell Law Firm in his honor. Mr. Lomell started the firm in 1957 after completing law school under the G.I. Bill. He started as a sole practitioner specializing in insurance defense for carriers.
Arthur F. Leyden, III and Paul J. Capotorto have continued the insurance defense, commercial and civil litigation practice. The core values of service, scholarship, integrity and dedication instilled by Mr. Lomell and Mr. Ravaschiere continue today and are an integral part of the Leyden Capotorto & firm. Both Mr. Lomell and Mr. Ravaschiere are of counsel to Leyden Capotorto.
The firm has been at the same location since inception. Its building is a designated historical site in the County of Ocean.
With our office conveniently located in Ocean County, we are available to serve any vicinage in the state.
