Consultation

I found Attorney Kadzai extremely knowledgeable during our consultation regarding a civil matter. He explained the process thoroughly, including the steps required from me as a potential client. I was able to also follow-up with questions via email, and found him very responsive.

Horrible unethical attorney

I hired him as he presented himself in a professional manner. I was mislead. He had no knowledge of the courtroom. He didn't file documents in a timely manner and looked overwhelmed in the courtroom. I ended up have to switch attorneys and he still wanted additional money when he didn't do anything ...to earn the retainer. He's not worth used toliet paper.

I understand your concerns. Hiring an attorney is a big decision and can be costly in terms of time, effort and financially. I always like to follow-up with my clients that are unsatisfied. Let's discuss this offline and see if we can resolve your concerns. -DAK

Aggressive, Well Prepared and Diligent

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in 2016 and didn't know what to do. A family friend referred me to Attorney David Kadzai and at the initial consultation it became clear he was very knowledgable and ready to handle my case. After a few months my case was resolved satisfactorily and I didn't... have to go through the hassle of waiting years before receiving a settlement. Attorney Kadzai held my hand every step of the way and provided justice. I highly recommend him!
