Kos & Associate initiated its practice in February 1996, when Edmund P. Kos formed the firm to implement a concentrated practice in the areas of bankruptcy, creditors' rights, commercial litigation and transactions, corporate law, real estate and secured transactions. While Kos & Associate's primary client base is in Fort Wayne and surrounding communities, it also maintains a state-wide practice with clients in major population centers as well as in outlying areas. The firm serves a diverse client base, including manufacturers and service industries ranging in size and scope from small, in-state businesses to multi-state banking companies to international corporations, as well as individuals. To expand the firm's capacity to serve its clients, Edmund Kos is licensed to practice in New York. The firm's goal is to provide expert, timely, cost-effective and result-oriented legal advice and representation to their clients. To assist in achieving this goal, Kos & Associate utilizes degreed paralegal personnel and state-of-the-art technology. As a further service, the firm publishes a newsletter with case extracts and practical commentary and advice.
