Great experience

Kushner treated me with kindness and did not take advantage of my strained financial situation. I would recommend this law firm to anyone who needs a respectable lawyer.

"Mike is a very hardworking and competent attorney. The one negative review he has from a client is absurd since the reviewer points out that Mike won the case. As in not guilty - full acquittal - best possible result you can get. For the client to complain after Mike secured an acquittal shows us that it is the ungrateful client here that was the problem."

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.
