James Victor Kosnett, Esq.

I was immensely impressed with Mr. Kosnett when I first met with him. His demeanor was relaxing and caused me a calm that I had not experienced with a previous attorney. His professionalism was truly representative of a dependable attorney. He presented himself as someone that you can confide in ...and depend on to represent you in a time of need for legal matters. He demonstrated that to me. I feel that, even if it was not a legal matter, Mr. Kosnett has the inner workings of an impecable individual. To add more, I was astonished with his court room proceeding, which left me with great humility for his ability. Thank you Mr. Kosnett.

Mom with son on 504 plan fights for her son to walk in graduation ceremony do to school unfair decision not to allow him

I hired Atty.James Kosnett to assist me in a issue with the Principal @ Orville Wright Middle School- Mr. James Stapleton & LAUSD regarding my son. I had tiredlessly tried to get the principal Mr. Stapleton to allow my son the opportunity to walk in his 8th grade graduation due to their error in not ...following a 504 plan that was implemented do to my son's physical disabilities. He was given unfair grades which The school along with heads of the LAUSD ignored my letters, phone, calls & even when I physically went to the principal my request fell on deaf ears. It wasn't until I retained Atty. Kosnett & with his expertise, persistance & the power of his letter that was submitted to the principal & LAUSD I then received a call from the principal personally stating that my son would be able to walk in the June 16th graduation ceremony. I had been denied for weeks & was told they would not change there decision, well after being contacted by Atty. Kosnett that was certinaly not the case anymore. I recomend Atty. Kosnett very highly 100% to anyone. He will get the job done & you will be satisfied of the end results. Because of his expert knowledge my son who had lost faith in the school system can now know he will be able to walk with his twin sister & his fellow class mates. Thank you Atty. Kosnett for beleiving in my son & his dream to walk in his graduation. You gave us hope when all else had failed us. From a very greatful Mom. Beverly
