We all know how to complain about attorneys, but it’s important to point out the good guys. Mr. Kogut knows the law, & he takes it seriously. He used his intelligence and integrity to fight for us in a difficult and complex custody case. We wasted valuable resources on another attorney, & got nothing. When Kogut took over, he got it done. He answers emails promptly, so we were kept informed, & never had to guess what he was thinking. Never underestimate an attorney who knows how to use his grit and brainpower when the time comes to navigate a trial. Thats when the rubber meets the road. He was respectful but knew the crux of the case and spoke the hard truth. We are grateful.

Took a simple contested divorce, spent a year, and got me nowhere. If you want a divorce, get someone else. Always rushed me on the phone and never showed any empathy to my situation. His paralegal was amazing though and he never charged for her time. He should have just told me to wait for settlement conference from the beginning. Grow some compassion and care for your clients and you might get a better review.

William Kogut is a man of honor and a great attorney. He was more than willing to take the time out of his morning to help my father free of charge with advice he needed to be able to see his wife before she passed away. Do to family issue with adult children. Knowing he may never hear from us again. But we did retain and have him for our counsel and he is fair honest and very up front We thank him for the great service we received and appreciate him and his staff. As our situation was a very usual and difficult matter he would be the one I recommend to anyone who is need of excellent counsel.

William is an experienced attorney, with broad knowledge and dedication to his work, who was able to help our family with a complex guardianship situation. His professionalism was always in the forefront, while he kept my aging parents’ interests and needs in mind. His knowledge, forthright approach, and honesty were always strong, as he carefully anticipated the nuances and consequences of each family situation, and planned the Court steps and collateral efforts needed. Always filing motions and declarations in good time, after carefully working through required details. I was very glad to have William’s help in the extensive case we worked on over a three year period, and can recommend him as an excellent resource.

Mr. Kogut was instrumental in ensuring a fair outcome with the guardianship of my son. The situation was very heated and emotional until retaining Mr. Kogut as my attorney. I will continue to use Mr. Kogut and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who asked.

I was referred by a lawyer I know to William Kogut. I was overwhelmed by all the legal stuff related to probate and surprised that the will did not cover some of the most basic things. William said we could do things as slow as I needed and explained things so I could understand them. When we needed the letters testamentary the court room filled up, but he just took mine and one other up to the judge and we were done and out of there. I expected at least half a day but it was done in a few minutes. He and his office were very clear, transparent and consistent about billing so there were no surprises. I re-hired him after the first retainer was used up because there may be more things that I need to get squared away. He is reliable, honest and easy to work with.

Mr Kogut was patient, understanding and reasonable. He was always able to give thoughtful insight into each and every situation that arose and was respectful even when opposing counsel was not. He worked hard for me and was able to reach a successful outcome for my family. I was amazed at his ability to respond to my emergency emails during off hours and to use his resources to investigate. He had vast knowledge about the environment he practices in. He was reasonable in his fees and worked with my financial situation. My family is truly grateful for his guidance and counsel.

I retained and have worked with Mr. Kogut for well over a year. I originally retained Mr. Kogut in a very complicated guardianship case, concerning my mother, against my two brothers. Mr. Kogut saw me through several heartbreaking moments. He always kept me informed and helped me to understand what was going on. He was concerned and empathetic in dealing with me. The case went on well past a year. During that year my mother passed away and I was then embroiled in a Tedra against my brothers. William pushed for Arbitration to help resolve the issues. He successfully maneuvered through the Arbitration. Without his finesse I would have ended up losing my entire inheritance just fighting court battles. Another issue that was extremely important was how fair minded Mr. Kogut was in his billing. If you are looking for a steady, knowledgeable, fair minded and result driven attorney then you definitely want to give William Kogut a call.

I was in need of an attorney for handling my divorce, I happened upon Mr. Kogut by chance as the EAP through my work suggested his office. Mr. Kogut and his staff were professional and handled my case with compassion and respect. Mr Kogut Is a family man and was very helpful in helping me make difficult decisions when it came to my own children. The term of my case lasted a year and a half with many meetings with my ex and her attorney that were fruitless, it was frustrating to say the least yet Mr Kogut always had an appropriate response to help me make sense of what seemed a complete waste of time and money. I never once felt that Mr. Kogut was after my wallet he was conscious of my financial situation and was fair in his billing and time working on my case. Mr Kogut handled my case from beginning through trial, the whole process lasted much longer than I had ever anticipated. In the end I felt the money I spent in hiring Mr. Kogut was worth every cent, when a person must face such difficult times and decisions that will impact the course of their lives they need to be treated and talked to by a professional.
