Posted by anonymous | April 12, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Corporate & Incorporation

Extremely dedicated to his clients

Mr. Kozlowski came highly recommend to me by a friend. I used him in starting a small business. He was available to answer any questions that I had, and went above and beyond. He also took the time to refer me to another lawyer for a personal injury issue my family was dealing with. He's dedicated, p...rofessional, and one of the best around. Trusting your lawyer is key -- he is someone you can trust.

Pleasent & Professional

Mr. Kozlowski was very helpful with my business issue, extremely pleasant to deal with, very patient and went beyond the requested consultation . I'd definitely retain him or hire him in the future.

Contract Issue

Attorney David J. Kozlowski gave me superb legal assistance with a contract issue. I would highly recommend him to any of my family, friends and professional network. David came highly recommended to me by a very close friend and now I will be doing the same by referring him to anyone looking for a... great lawyer to work with.

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.
