Modification of Child Support

“I used Atty Kozlowski for my modification of parenting time and child support. She was great. I personally appreciated the quick responses from her office through Lisa, her assistant. It was nice to have someone return my emails, texts or calls within a day with answers to my numerous questi...ons. They even responded to me after hours and on weekends. Attorney Kozlowski was “spot on” and had my best interests protected. She was definitely on my side. ”

Excellent attorney!

Sue helped me to finalize an agreement that involved mediating the payoff regarding real estate, co owned by myself and a another individual. She was very helpful in her knowledge, skills, and abilities, in making sure I understood all the legal aspects, involving the expected outcome, if mediation ...was not acceptable. I would highly recommend Sue and her assistant Lisa for future legal matters. She was compassionate, prompt, and very common sense in the process from the beginning to the end.....she always accepted my calls and worked hard to move the situation along, which always is in everyone's best interests....thanks Sue and Lisa for your help! I appreciated all you both did for me!

Above and beyond!

Thank you Susan for all your advice and exceeding my expectations. Not only was she proficient and knowledgeable about the challenges I am dealing with, she even reached out very late into the evenings to make sure my needs were being address. Highly recommend Susan to anyone needing real estate lega...l assistance. Thank you Susan!

When Only The Best Will Do

I needed sometime to guide me , legally, through a probate situation and a Legal Trust left after the death of my father. In addition I also had to contend with an uncooperative family member. Attorney Kozlowski, of course, handled the legal aspects with ease. However, I needed a lot a personal gu...idance in relation to my rights, about which I knew nothing. She is an excellent guidance and family counselor about legal matters as she was able to stabilize me and the uncooperative family member and keep the entire process on track. She was always available to answer questions and explain in detail the pitfalls of a particular decision. I was able to understand her suggestions although she made it very clear that the final decision would be mine. I can not imagine how many mistakes in judgment I would have made without her guidance. I was only too happy to listen to her recommendations which all turned out to be good for all concerned. I recommend Attorney Kozlowski without reservation and shall forever keep her on my personal list of special people who helped me a lot.
