Very satisfied very professional keeps you updated would recommend to anyone needing help

Sean was a great help in assisting me with a dispute with a former apartment complex! Very professional and quick to respond to call/email. Highly recommend! Thanks for all your help!

Tim Cook is knowledgeable and efficient and can see the big picture. I would highly recommend his services.

If you are in need of a lawyer who is very thorough, knows the law and is committed to ensuring that their clients are treated in adherence to the law, Sean Kohl is your man! He was an absolute pleasure to work with.

Greetings to all that read this review. My wife and I have been victims of a mortgage company that had been deliberately mishandling our account. First we contacted them directly with no results. Then, they stopped accepting payments from us and move forward with foreclosure on our home. I then contacted Attorney Kohl and explained the situation to him. SO GLAD I did! He informed me that what they were doing was illegal and went to work for us! His professionalism, constant communication and hard work put my wife and I at ease. He is the reason that we still own our home . He never gives up and will advise you in all the steps you need to take to reach the goal at hand. Attorney Kohl is A1 class act and believe me a wise choice indeed! Thanks again! Mark Anthony Jones Sr

I was very pleased with the all the hard work, representation and the favorable outcome Tim Cook provided me with in my court case. He was very helpful keeping me posted as to how things were progressing before our court date. I have never needed an attorney for dealing with a mess caused by hiring an incompetent contractor, after hiring more than 20 contractors over a 30 year period. Unfortunately, the Ohio Attorney General's Office and the Better Business Bureau were of no help. I had to deal with a mess I never thought I would be in. Tim on more than one occasion helped calm my concerns about matters. He did an excellent job of preparing my case for review by the judge and achieving a favorable settlement for me. I was very impressed as to how he handled dealing with the judge and how he made me feel at ease in court. If it had not been for Tim’s help, I would have been forced to pay almost $22,000 for a window install mess and then paying for another window purchase and install again.

In my initial consultation with Troy, he gave me good indications that my case was strong, simple and straightforward. Based on the information he provided and those I read on his website, I was under the impression that his firm has previously handled cases similar to mine. I felt confident that my case would not be a novel undertaking for the firm. Once I signed the fee agreement, I never once again met or spoke with Troy. At the start of my case, I found out that the attorney assigned to me had quit and I was told the new person handling my case would be “J” (name withheld), who I later found out was a law clerk (but billed as attorney, even though he was licensed in another state at that time), and his boss, Andew Gerling, who had to sign off on everything. Maybe that’s why my first two billing statements show an inordinate amount of time (about 24+ hours) spent on the (enumerated) complaint filed with the court, not to mention the repeated review or meeting with senior or supervising attorneys regarding my case. I communicated mostly with “J” throughout my case, who was nice and personable, and I spoke with Andrew twice, mostly about billing issues and my concern that I would not fully recover my loss because of the mounting legal expenses. First call, he was very reassuring. Second time, he went back on his assurances as I understood them and was pretty rude, in my opinion. In the end, the total legal bill was about 70% of the settlement award. After negotiating with the firm, they discounted their fees so I would get 40%. I think it is disingenuous to say that I got 100% of the award just because the settlement amount was split into two payments: one check was made out to me and the other was paid to Troy’s firm. I understand that law firms have to earn money. There are fees associated with all the services they provide. I do not begrudge them that and they did work on my case. However, I feel like they could have accomplished the work needed with less hours. And it really didn’t reassure me when I saw the opposing counsel had even questioned the reasonableness of their fees in their court filings. Maybe this was just a trial tactic from the other side, but it reinforced my concerns. Overall, it was a very stressful experience for me to worry constantly whether I would be worse off than when I started and I felt strongly enough to leave this review based on my actual experience, how I felt I was treated, and what I know to be true for my case.

I hired this firm a year ago to handle a tough situation. Troy Doucet was honest upfront and very knowledgeable about the laws related to my case. He confidently told me in an initial meeting that they could help and indeed they did. All the attorneys I dealt with were informative respectful and understanding. Would definitely recommend this firm to others.

I was in a very bad position with a VERY uncooperative bank that I had a loan with. Due to a recent divorce it was crucial that I resolved this issue. Andrew and his firm was very attentive and actually took the time (and interest) to listen to me and the situation. They were very polite and timely in all of their responses to my many questions. I can't thank Andrew and Doucet and Associates enough for their professionalism and kindness throughout this nightmare. I am pleased to say everything has been resolved thanks to Andrew
