Business and Personal Legal Services

I have used Attorney James Kocka for business and personal. In both situations I felt relieved to have him represent me. He helped my business take care of a collection from a client that I didn't want to lose in the future and took all the stress away after I was in a car accident. I would high...ly recommend Jim to anyone in need of legal services!!

His knowledge of the legal system as well as his professionalism and ability to solve issues in an expeditious manner are just a few of the reasons I would recommend ...Mr. Kocka. We have all been 100% satisfied. If you are looking for a great attorney who will do his all out best for you found him right here.

Review for Jim Kocka

Jim did a great job and was successful in getting inappropriate traffic charges dropped that were associated with a minor accident my daughter was involved in

One of the best young attorneys in Cleveland!

Jim is a great attorney has helped with personal injury cases and miscellaneous traffic cases. Jim will fight on your behalf to get the best settlement or taking the case to court if the settlement is not satisfactory for what you're obligated for. Jim has great connections in the legal system and is... always available to talk or meet face to face. I really enjoyed Jim's enthusiasm and passion that he showed on my cases.

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.
