Knows your rights!

David was extremely helpful. He was able to assist in a difficult unemployment issue I was having the very same day. Helped prepare professional letters, answers to my questions and responded to text messages immediately. He was able to reinstate my unemployment within a matter of days during stres...sful times. Highly recommended!

David was not only extremely professional but proved himself to be knowledgeable with litigation as well. He was the support that I needed to get me through a very tough tine after losing my job. I trust him implicit ly.

Forever grateful I had David Kotwicki by my side

I filed a disability discrimination with EEOC and EEOC schedule a Fact Finding Conference. I didn't know where to turn and was overwhelmed trying to address the matter myself. I searched and searched for a lawyer but either they would not help me or they were too expensive. I finally found David Kotw...icki. David immediately saw what was happening to me was unlawful, David was empathetic, compassionate, and supportive. From my first meeting with Mr. Kotwicki I knew I could trust him, he was attentive and concerned about me as a person as well as my case. Mr. Kotwicki was able to negotiated a monetary settlement for me and negotiated other benefits for me such as health insurance. If I went to the EEOC's Fact Finding Conference without Mr. Kotwicki I would of walked out of there with absolutely nothing, not even a job. I would definitely recommend David Kotwicki to anyone and everyone. I was 100% satisfied with Mr. Kotwicki service and advocacy. When you meet David Kotwicki you will see immediately that he's knowledgeable and an experienced lawyer. Mr. Kotwicki will work to protect your rights and get you the compensation you deserve.

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.
