great attorney

Louis always works diligently, calls back quickly, and cares about whatever case I work with him on, which have been several in the past year alone.

Posted by Nayeli | April 12, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Excellent

Louis’ services were great. He is a good person and very knowledgeable. He helped me with my case and ensured that I understood everything that was going on. I was on a little budget but we were able to work things out. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again as a lawyer as he is a skilled person and m...akes sure that you are happy with the results.

Great Job, 2 cases handled

Louis is a very good person and gave my cases, which were petty on a broad scope, great attention and ensured that each of my three pending misdemeanors were dismissed. Affordable, too. Never had to stress about the cases while they were pending.

Louis is a credit to the legal profession

Mr. Kosnett is great attorney who knows the law well and is not afraid to "go to bat" for his clients. He is a skilled negotiator and a very effective advocate. I highly recommend him and his firm.

Excellent representation

I had a great experience with Louis Kosnett and his firm. Timely, available, on top of the issues I needed to have dealt with. Great with negotiation on my behalf. Pleasant to deal with. Were patient even when I overlooked details in correspondence. Great guidance. Would highly recommend.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
