Hired Attorney Thomas B. Kakassy

I needed advice on a life estate, when the will was made online, as to what the true meaning was. I had issues with some of the beneficiaries not willing to comply with the will. Mr Kakassy explained everything to me and what the consequences could be before we continued. When we had to go to court, he was very supportive. Never having been through any of this, he was always there to answer and assist with questions I had, and I had alot. Even though I didn't take all of his advice at the time, I should have. Things he said would happen did, I should have listened to him. He is very knowledgeable of the law, and obviously has been through alot of different scenarios. I will continue to use his law firm for all legal issues I have, and will refer him to anyone seeking legal advice, for any situation. His assistance Amy and Thomas have been a great help to me.

I had a very difficult divorce with several factors to consider. Tom and Amy were absolutely wonderful. I can not recommend them enough. They are on your side, fighting for you and want what is best for you. Tom is straight forward and honest. They are very responsive and understanding. They helped me by making a difficult time a little easier.

Hired Attorney Thomas B. Kakassy

I am so pleased with my experience as a client of Tom Kakassy. Tom was incredibly attentive and helpful. He gave me the unvarnished truth and provided unbiased insight based on the law and his experience. I don't know about you, but I'm not paying an attorney to tell me what I want to hear. I'm paying for guidance that prevents loss or hardship and benefits me. While Tom gave me feedback to burst my bubble, he was gracious and sympathetic. I am grateful he prevented me from making a mistake.

Mr Kakassy was very professional and at the same time welcoming. He listened closely to what I wanted to do, but also suggested things I had not thought about. I believe I received value and quality service for my money.

Hired Attorney Thomas B. Kakassy

Several years ago I hired him to rep me in a legal case concerning professional employment. He talked at good case, filed necessary papers, and looked good. But the day prior to the court hearing, he quit. No explanation other than he did not expect the other party to fight. When they did; he just walked out. I lost $1000s by this action.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
