Worked for Free, Work Was Priceless

Mr. Kasalo generously offered to help our family with a case when our mom couldn't afford to hire an attorney. He used his own contacts to help us not only achieve our goal, but MORE. He was unfailingly polite through the process, too; some lawyers we contacted were intimidatingly gruff, like they ha...d no time for us. Just a wonderful experience.

A Great attorney

Mario is an amazing attorney. After dealing with a very dire situation, I found Mario. Everything changed from there. He got things moving quickly and handled all of my problems. Not only is Mario the best at what he does, he is a very kind compassionate person. During one of my early conversation...s with Mario, he said "be patient and have faith". That is what I did. I did have faith and I did believe in Mario and he surely did not disappoint. Thank you Mario for all you have done for me and for renewing my faith.

Mario is an great lawyer. Mario's communication was very hepful and delivered the best results. He did everything we discussed and promised me. He was very reassuring that we would win, and that's exactly what he did. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. His honesty and character showed how de...voted he is to his clients and his work.

Gets highest grade from me.

So glad to have Mario on my side. I was sold a car with a duplicate title and paid in cash. When i applied to transfer the title in my name, i found out there was a loan on the original title! I tried to give a chance to the seller to make it right, but he was just coming up with excuses and empty p...romises. I was looking not just for a good, but for a great lawyer and Mario came highly recommended. He took the case on as if it was his own. I was kept updated on the process and eventually everything got resolved to my satisfaction. My impressions: Master in his field, honest, personable, tenacious, very good at 4d chess. Therefore from my personal experience, without a hint of a doubt i recommend him.
