Really cares, fights for his clients

Mr. Kest helped me with legal issues regarding my business. He is a fighter and really cares about his clients. He kept me informed throughout and was very responsive. Definitely recommend.

Amazing

Michael had a quick understanding of our case, did not waste our time, and kept us up -to-date with emails. He dealt with the issue very effectively and efficiently resulting in case dismissal. We were very impressed, which is something we've been unable to say about other attorneys we have dealt... with.

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.
