Excellent

I had a excellent experience working with Mr. Kakassy. Amy was very helpful to help me when I really did not understand what was really needed. I was a easy smooth experience and I would go to Mr. Kakassy again for any additional legal help I might need.

Avoid avoid avoid

He represented me in case where I needed to modify my parenting plan. He sat in another room with my ex and giggled and seemed to be more a friend to my ex's attorney than my representation. He kept calling me by another name because he couldn't even remember mine. He was nice until it was game ti...me and didn't care about my case or what was best for my child but rather to just getting it done quickly. I'm still dealing with visitation interference and he did a horrible job with the parenting plan. I absolutely would not recommend Mr Kakassy to any parent who is dealing with co-parenting issues. He's the worst I've ever experienced.

We are glad that Mr. Wagner is no longer anonymous. Perhaps it tells the tale that Mr. Wagner is apparently upset because we have declined to again represent him, after two requests on his part, the most recent being approximately 2 hours ago. It is also a tribute to our great life in the United States of America that anyone can say virtually anything without restriction, even after entering into consent orders which obviously were satisfactory. While a request for our representation is the greatest compliment, we do indeed decline to represent him further, and wish him well.

Worse Lawyer Ever!!!

He was hired for a custody issue and made me look like an idiot and made copies that wasn't legible. Lucky I had the originals in court and the Judge saw what he was trying to do!! Sabotage His own client!!! I would give him 0 stars if possible!!! He is by far the worst Lawyer ever!!

Absolutely immoral man

He is a real flake. My job referred me to him and he did the most horrible job ever! I went from having legal physical custody to one weekend per month no custody no say. He did absolutely nothing to help me, and when I started questioning his judgement he literally dropped me right in the courtroom ...because I didnt wanna sign an agreement but didnt want to wait another 3 months before I saw my kids again and his only words to me "were you wanted this". Ummmm no, nobody wants to see their kids theyve been raising from birth get handed over to a man who is thousands of dollars in child support debt and hasnt even bothered to see his kids in years! But now because he has a new girlfriend with more money, he got custody and me one weekend a month! He is the worst family lawyer ever and you will be surely disappointed and out thousands of dollars for nothing!!!!!!

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.
