direct and hardworking

I was arrested for what looked to be a second dui, and definitely needed all the help I could get. After looking up different lawyers on this site, I really liked what I read about Mr. Hada and Mr. Bossin and called to set up an appointment. I wasn't able to remember every detail about the night... I was arrested. Not a lot of details, actually, which obviously wasn't helpful to the lawyers, but things still worked out for me. Mr. Bossin and Hadaworked very hard, and went above and beyond what many lawyers might do. They were always on time for court, and very prepared. They did not try to squeeze any extra money out of me, like some lawyers may attempt. He was direct and honest, even if I may not have always liked what I was being told, but in the end, isn't that what you want them to be? Mr. Bossin was very respectful and told me what may happen, and described things every step of the way. In the end, my dui was dropped to a reckless op, but there were still consequences, as there should be. I highly recommend Mr. Bossin to those seeking counsel. He won't sugarcoat things or baby you, but that isn't his job. He really does care, and wants to prevent his clients from going through this again, with possibly worse ramifications. I thank him for his time and tireless efforts.

Look no further....

SInce I live out of state, it was extremely important for me to find a lawyer who I could see asap before I left town. As a previous comment stated, I couldn't agree more that from the first phone conversation that I had , I knew that he was the right man for the job. Ken was/is extremely professi...onal and knowledgable about the laws concerning dui cases. You can tell he is very experienced when it comes to these types of situations. Ken has a true gift to be able to explain the complexities of the laws in layman's terms! He gave me the situations I would potentially be encountering and again, never led me to believe otherwise. He "shot me straight" and was very prompt at returning any of my phone calls and always kept me in the loop. I truly appreciated his professionalism in returning my emails in a timely manner as well. I will have to say that Ken knew the intricacies of what he could leverage in our favor and went above and beyond with my case,too. I knew without him telling me that he has solid relationships and is very well respected within the court system! Whether you live in-state or not, you cant go wrong with Ken as he is one of the best! You dont need anyone else to handle your DUI case!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I Strongly endorse this lawyer. Not only is he an excellent trial lawyer, he is the ONLY lawyer who I would let handle an appeal. For those of you who are not Lawyers, this is what it means: ken tells the trial judge what the law requires of them (the court), if they don't do it, he goes to the "higher level" and tells them what the trial judge did wrong. Again, if/when I have a case that should be appealed I call Ken Bossin !"

"I endorse this lawyer. This lawyers contributions to this site are invaluable. I happily endorse this lawyers work, ability and charity to those asking for advice. Further, I like to endorse good lawyers, because I find the AVVO rating system to be dishonest and corrupt. Frequently, disgruntled litigants on the opposing side (not your clients) will bash a lawyer on this site, pretending to be "your" client. When this situation is brought to AVVO attention, Avvo refuses to do anything to investigate and remove the false, slanderous "client" reviews. AVVO is a mean petty internet blog site trying to make money off of lawyers, and does not care if the public receives truthful information."

"Ken is, in my opinion, Ohio's best D.U.I. lawyer. If I had to hire a lawyer or refer a family member for a D.U.I. he is the only lawyer I would choose. I have worked with him, I have attended a number of D.U.I. seminars where he was the keynote speaker, and when the chips are down and you need the best Ken is the lawyer to call."
