Hire David Kasell!

We purchased a car from a used car dealership in NY, spent a ton of money to never actually get the car. The car had multiple issues and the dealership refused to refund us. The dealership kept making bogus excuses to why the car had issues and kept delaying dates to when we could actually get it. ...After weeks/months of being so frustrated we contacted Attorney Kasell who explained to us we had a Lemon Law case. David was honest and upfront about what he would charge, which was very reasonable, explained the actions he would take, and honestly it sounded too good to be true at first. He asked me to send him an email with details of what we experienced. Using our information, David sent a strong-worded letter to the dealership as well as contacting them directly. David kept us informed of the process and is an excellent communicator. David is easy to get in touch with, which is also appreciated. He was able to get us a full refund within a very short period of time. We are extremely happy we made the choice to hire Atty. David Kasell. He is professional, knows the laws, and most importantly GETS IT DONE! Highly recommended. You will be happy with your decision to hire him.

Absolute Best Attorney--Knows the Law Inside and Out

Had a new car which could not be fixed by the manufacturer. I contacted David after looking around for a lawyer who has experience with lemon law cases. David explained all the options to me. He wrote the company and asked for a prompt settlement. He sent me a copy of the letter, and it was strongly... worded. Even so, the company didn't respond as we asked. After explaining all the options to me, he filed a law suit on my behalf. The lawsuit forced the company to settle in accordance with the terms of the New York State lemon law. I was surprised by what we were able to recover--the full price paid for the car. David responded every time I sent him a question or asked for an update. I was extremely fortunate to have someone like him on my side. It pays to hire the best, and he is just that. I wish to publicly thank David for the great job done on my behalf.

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.
