A lawyer who is good , and has integrity ? Yes, he does exist !

Larry represented me in a Chapter 11 case . Not knowing what to expect in this matter, and of Larry either ,after the closing of this case a year later, I must profess a lasting gratitude for his handling of a very complicated matter,an admiration of his skill, knowledge, integrity , care and atte...ntion. Overall, an outstanding attorney who will serve his clients equally well.

Larry's Advice and Excellent Lawyering Saved My Commercial Property

Larry was referred to me by another Orlando Lawyer who told me Larry had soundly beat him in a collections case. I have found Larry to be an excellent litigator with a sound understanding of the law and good writing skills. Larry is very personable and will tell you up front if he is the right lawy...er for your particular problem. I call Larry often for his opinion and advice on all kinds of matters. Over the years I have referred my friends to Larry because I know he is honest and will do a good job. Most recently, I told Larry about a problem I had with a lender on a commercial property. Larry suggested a chapter 11 bankruptcy (reorganization) for the property in order to force the lender to negotiate the loan and stop a foreclosure. He jumped right on it, stopped the foreclosure, negotiated down the lenders legal fees (from $10,000 to $3,000) and got my plan approved. Today I still own the building, the loan is reinstated and I have equity in the property.

Great attorneys are hard to find

Larry Kosto is a very knowledgeable attorney and always sticks to the facts and very consistent with his advice and ethics. He handled the bankruptcy case efficiently and treated us with great respect and courtesy. He handled our case locally and internationally with extreme professionalism. He is ...very knowledgeable in his field, trustworthy and highly recommended.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Kosto was right on-budget (per his original estimate of what it would take) and correctly identified errors in the action that was brought against me. The "hearing" lasted less than a half an hour and the judge found quickly in our favor. He saved me at least $30,000 and a lot of heartache. Very ...professional. Excellent communicator. Nice guy. Efficient and friendly staff. What a breath of fresh air - 5 stars.

my experience

Mr. Kosto did an excellent job. Not knowing what to expect with the system he clearly explained everything in detail. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a true professional.
