Fantastic Attorney
Mr. Nawash handled my car accident case. I was fortunate to have found a fantastic attorney. He was sympathetic, kind and understanding. He was compassionate and was willing to work within my budget where now a days attorney charge and arm and a leg. Mr. Nawash immediately went to work, he assured me everything will be fine and I did not need to worry. It was a great piece of mind that my case was in good hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He is an outstanding attorney.

Helped me a lot
I was in a car accident in which I was hit. Three other lawyers would not take my case even though I was in pain. Mr. Nawash did not hesitate and took me on as a client. I appreciate all his efforts. He was very good at explaining the laws and the best result for me. Very helpful.

Very knowledgeable and strong ability to achieve desirable results! RECOMMEND!!
Kamal is very professional and knowledgeable. Most importantly, Kamal has the ability to achieve desirable results in minimum time. My previous landlord tried to blackmail me, and threatened to sue me after I moved out a private owned condo. I was terrified and eager to find a lawyer specialized in landlord&tenant case. I talked to many other high profile lawyers but non of them can ease my anxiety until I met Kamal. Kamal quickly grabbed the key points of my case, and gave me very thorough law advice. He take appropriate action right away and settled the case with desired results in short period of time. Highly recommend!
