• DUI/DWI
  I came to James with two DWI’s and 2 refusal hearings. My job with sanitation, after 18years, was in jeopardy because my license was suspended. James worked for three years. We won both refusal hearings, one DWI was dismissed and the other resolved with a non-alcohol related plea. I have my license and my job back. But even more important, James helped me get in an alcohol program. I am 18 months sober and I have my life back. My friend and attorney, I thank you.

• Fraud
  Approximately for a total of four years my company was being investigated by the Attorney Generals office....they raided our facility....we called Mr. James Kousouros immediately. Our charges ranged from the involvement of organized crime, to insurance fraud and tax fraud. After two years of dealing with these allegations, Mr. Kousouros had the [most serious] charges dropped, and we pled out to tax fraud with no jail time. Although our situation was very stressful and very serious, he always made us feel that everything was under control. I offer the highest possible recommendation for Mr. Kousouros to represent anyone that requires a criminal defense attorney. He was always available to answer any and all of my questions and concerns. He goes above and beyond for his clients and explains everything in detail, Mr. Kousouros thinks and acts accordingly “on his feet”!... (Read full Avvo review)
