Outstanding Lawyer

I could not have asked for a better attorney than Todd Kaluzny. He helped me so much during my case and found every possible way to get me out of legal trouble. I would and will recommend him to everyone and anyone that will legal help from now on. I am so grateful for Todd!

Above and Beyond

Todd took on my case at the last minute, with little time to prepare and in the middle of a snow storm. Through interrogatories and a trial he was calm, patient, smart and a great listener. As an abused woman, he represented me extremely well. I will seek his help in the future and would recommend... him in a heartbeat.

Best legal outcome possible

Todd was an amazing lawyer to work with! He worked on my case and I was able to avoid criminal prosecution. Todd was honest, respectful, thoughtful, and really listened to my background. He took all of the information that I provided and made a great case out of it. I would recommend Todd Kaluzny to ...anyone who is in need of a great lawyer.

Amazing Attorney and Amazing Person

Mr. Todd Kaluzny represented me in both family court and criminal court for separate matters. He is not only an extremely thorough, well-versed, experienced and highly intelligent person especially in all legal matters, but he is an extremely kind and understanding person as well. He spent a great ...deal of time working one on one with me for my cases and, while his main focus is on the legal preparations for the courtroom, he always took the time to answer any and all questions I had. He was very straightforward and honest with his answers, which I appreciated because it helped me in the decisions I needed to make as things proceeded and also allowed me to be as prepared for the situations as possible. He was also very reassuring that I would make it through the process and it was an extreme comfort to know I had (and have) him in my corner for the previous matters I needed his counsel for as well as any future matters that may require legal counsel in the future. And having an attorney that is so well versed is so many aspects of the law is extremely helpful! Also, if for some reason, he doesn't already have the answer or it happens to not be an area of law he specializes in, he always seems to have a contact (usually on speed dial) that knows the answer or does specialize in the area of expertise you may require. Mr. Kaluzny is not only an incredible and very talented attorney, but he makes you feel like you have a friend in him as well which is not something you find often in attorneys. I can't recommend this man enough and I could go on much longer in my praise so I'll end here and simply say: if you need legal representation then Mr. Kaluzny is who you should call. I, personally, couldn't be happier with my own experience.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Todd and i had one of the most difficult divorce cases i have ever been a part of. Our clients had limited resources yet were willing to fight over any and everything, even when it made little to no sense, blinded by their angry for one another. Fortunately, though my adversary, Todd was able to work with his client to get her to reach a peaceful and fair result, to help cool her tempers, and allow her to see the bigger picture. Despite our clients intense emotions, he was always level headed, reasonable, and willing to work on a solution, he was a wonderful attorney to work with, and should I ever need a divorce attorney i know who to call"
