Mr. John Cenusa

I recommend Attorney Mr. Todd Kaluzny to anyone who requires legal services, especially in alcohol related court cases. He responded to my first call immediately, and he maintained our discussion for approximately 45 minutes. He scheduled an in-person meeting with me within only a few days. He ...is experienced in the depth and details of the legal realm, his knowledge and authority. He is a very good listener and advisor. I felt as if he knew me, and my case, very quickly. Mr. Kaluzny will inform you of the truth of what you are facing, provide the necessary steps and actions you should follow, with positive reinforcement. I have followed his advice for my pre-court and continued court, actions, and this has been extremely beneficial to me. He also recommended a counselor in the specialty of alcohol cases and we have become a very comfortable and supportive trio. We keep in contact on a regular basis. I am extremely fortunate to have hired Attorney Todd Kaluzny, and recommend him to you.

Great Experience With Kaluzny Law

I hired Todd for a very serious charge pertaining to operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol. This was a Felony matter and the possibility of an extend jail sentence was real and highly probable. From the first visit with him in Oakland county Jail he was honest and upfront with me ...on what he felt he could bring to the table. I couldn’t be happier with his services from the day of retention all the way through to sentencing. He was always very responsive and fought hard against the prosecutor when they tried to make a case for a harsher punishment. Todd was also very fairly priced for the experience and knowledge of the Judges and Prosecutors in Oakland county. I truly believe he got me the best possible outcome in a situation that could have turned out very ugly. Great guy and a great lawyer – worth every penny!!

Mr. Kaluzny served as my attorney for my divorce hearing. He was very professional, respectful, and he responded to my questions in an expedient manner. I appreciate him being forthright and very transparent. I would highly recommend him to others who are in need of a competent and humane attorney. ...

Thankful

My name is Branden Robinson a former client of T. Kaluzny. Todd represented me in a case against police officer which he treated me fairly, he cared and he did a lot to get the best outcome for my case. I am thankful for Todd, he was skillful and courage to help me with my care. I think Todd is a won...derful human being outside of being an amazing attorney he fought for my rights in my case and I am glad he cared enough to go against some people awful injustice. Todd cares, he's easy to contact, very knowledge and has tons of years of experience. He gardened some worse counsel in my case. I believe he's a super attorney and I would encourage others if need be to consider his guidance on any case.

"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"
