The Lawyer You Want

I consulted with Mr. Koussevitzky about a project I'm undergoing and he was able to provide me with all of the information I needed. He stepped in and really broke a lot of things down. I'm very excited to be working with Mr. Koussevitzky this year.

Excellent Lawyer, excellent person !!!

He is extremely upfront and to the point. No wasted steps or money. He cut to the chase told me what I needed to hear not what I wanted to hear but most importantly helped me reach my goal of becoming licensed. Overall experience was amazing, was easy to get in touch with , easy to understand what w...as needed of me , allowed me to get back to work while he handled the paperwork and legal side.

Avvo Rating

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.
