Simply the best

Mr. Kasell is a great lawyer. He will work closely with you and answer all your questions thoughtfully. He was very quick to take my case, file it and respond to any questions I had, and over all very communicative with me. I never felt in the dark, or pushed to do anything and most importantly he... made all the legal proceedings very easy to understand. He charges a very fair rate, and settled my case quickly. If you have been wronged by a car dealer or car company, this guy is the best and I highly recommend giving him a call. Thanks Mr. Kasell !

Thank you David

A well professional attorney!

I hired Attorney David Kasell, he made sure justice was served on my behalf. Every step of the process to assist me he assured me and made me feel confident that I would be pleased with the outcome of my case. He is reliable and a great negotiator. I like how he made time to explain to me what can... or can not happen in my case. He was very thorough. I recommend his legal services to anyone that wants a competent attorney to work on their behalf. Mr. Kasell handled my case which was pertaining to my state lemon law. Lemon laws are laws that provide a solution for purchasers of cars and other consumer goods to be properly compensate when the product continuously fail to meet the standards of quality and performance.

Great Lawyer

David Kasell is extremely professional, gives straightforward honest advice, is prompt, reliable and responsive. He continuously kept me apprised of the situation without my having to contact him for information. My experience with him was superb. He helped make a stressful situation much easier know...ing I had someone advocating on my behalf. I recommend him highly!

Honest, effective, punctual

I called David's office on a bit of a whim, having decided to pursue a lemon law suit against my motorcycle manufacturer, but not knowing what any of the process would entail. My hope was that I might schedule an appointment to chat with an attorney about the facts of my case. Instead, David took my ...call and talked me through the process, before ever receiving a dollar from me. I was so impressed by his willingness to be of service, I knew I didn't need to look any further for legal representation. After our first consultation, he explained that my case would be sufficient under NYS lemon law and we started the process of filing suit against the manufacturer. Throughout the entire process, David was reliable, punctual, and transparent. When he said he would have paperwork filed by a certain date, he did. I never felt like I had to chase him down to get answers, never feared I was losing track of where we were in the process. Filing a lawsuit can seem like a major step to take, but David's firm made the process very manageable. In the end, the manufacturer decided to repurchase my motorcycle for the full retail price, including the trade-in value of my old motorcycle. I honestly could not have been happier with the outcome or my representation. I highly recommend Kasell Law Firm.
