Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Kolokoff prosecuted my client, a licensed attorney, on a mortgage fraud case. My client was also prosecuted by other jurisdictions. Mr. Kolokoff investigated the claims against my client and others thoroughly. He was well prepared. The greatest compliment I could present to him was he was firm to his position and committed to representing the citizens of Miami Dade county while display compassion and understanding to my clients issues. In the end I believe justice was served. I would endorse without hesitation Mr. Kolokoff for his intellect, knowledge and discretion. Mr. Kolokoff is deserving of this recognition for his handling of my clients case."

Criminal defense lawyer | Jul 18

Relationship: Co-worker

"I worked with Jeff at the State Attorney's office every day while we were in the same division. Jeff handled a huge case load while he was there -hundreds of cases. Jeff is one of the brightest lawyers I have ever worked with. Moreover, Jeff exhibits the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, compassion, and most importantly, common sense. I have personally tried cases with Jeff, and watched him argue many motions on a daily basis. Jeff was always able to understand the key concepts of a case and/or motion and effectively convey his argument to the court. Many times Jeff had to argue motions "on the fly" which he always appeared to handle with ease. I highly recommend Jeff. Sincerely, Michael Tichenor, Esq."

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.
