Excellent Service

Mr. Kaluzny did an excellent job with my situation. He provided information on what would happen each step of the way and provided sound guidance on how to handle and prepare for each situation. He suggested some things I could do to be proactive in my case which helped get a sentence less than tha...t recommended from the probation officer. I highly recommend Mr. Kaluzny for any criminal defense needs.

A Personable and Professional Lawyer who is not just another "Lawyer", and where you are not just another "Client"

I hired Todd Kaluzny to assist with my divorce case. He made a great impression on me from our very first meeting. He was professional and handled my case thouroughly. I liked that he didn't handle my case, as just another case. He took the time to learn about me, my family and career. Todd built a c...omfort level with me, allowing me talk openly with him. He made a difficult and stressful time for me easier. He was available and provided answers, and feedback to all my questions, rather by email, phone, or text. If at any time he was unavailable, I didn't have to wait long for his response. Todd definitely defies the "common myths" about lawyers, as he is open and honest. During my case, he provided me with honest, accurate facts about my case whether good or bad. I was given all scenarios, and valuable opinions with supporting information for any decisions that needed to be made. Whenever I was unsure, confused about any process, he listened and was patient in providing me with explanations and clarifications until a level of satisfaction was reached. It was just as important, that there weren't any hidden fees, and he was detailed concerning his services and pricing. Meeting Todd, and having him to represent me was a valuabe experience though it was due to a tough time in my life. I would recommend him to anyone, and would eagerly use his services again should I ever have the need.

Best Attorney Ever!

Todd Kaluzny gave me the professional advice that every defendant should have. He was very personable and forthcoming with the experience I was facing. The advice I received was extremely helpful in the preparation of the unknown...which I took to heart. I listened and exercised each of his recommend...ations to better myself and make the right decision for the situation I put myself in. He was by my side all the way, including driving me all the way upstate in a snow storm to make my sentencing. Not only that, we were able to finish the process in one visit. Thankful to my Brother-In-Law for recommending Todd Kaluzny as my personal representative in such a challenging situation. I don't how I would have gotten through this without Todd! You represented me like a true friend...Thank You!

"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"
