I have always been passionate about helping the underdog and standing up for the little guy. When you feel like the world is against you and no one will hear your side, it is my goal to make you feel seen and heard. When you search for a lawyer for yourself or a loved one, you may feel like you are at one of the lowest points in your life. You deserve an advocate who will ensure that your voice is loud, clear, and resounding in the courtroom. In my practice, each client is treated as an individual with his or her own unique story to tell. 

At the Kutsenok Law Office, we are dedicated to understanding the results you want and helping you achieve the best possible outcome. We work with you every step of the way to make sure that you understand the choices you are making and feel empowered to make them.
