A Great Lawyer with a Compassionate Heart

I contacted Attorney Kofoed to review matters relating to my criminal case. Although the case was not one of his areas of expertise, he was extremely nice and thorough in reviewing all major aspects of my case. Russ took the time to listen and see if there was anything he could do to help. Prior t...o this occasion, I had used Attorney Kofoed's services in the past on a number of issues relating to educational and administrative law. On each of those cases, he always kept in direct communication with me and explored every avenue on my cases in an attempt to win them. For these reasons, I have no problem in recommending Attorney Russ Kofoed in the areas of administrative or educational law.
