Do yourself a favor and stay away from this lawyer. Unless you want to go to prison for a long time !!!

Everything Mr. Michael responded to this post is true. He just chosen to leave out the part where he got mad because I wrote the bar association because he wasn't doing his job. He decided that he was going to get even. On my big day in court we negotiated a deal with the prosecutor in which she agreed. It was for a much lesser sentence than I received. The prosecutor explained to the judge why she was agreeing to the deal. Once Mr. Michael took the floor, he brought my criminal history up to the judge. She never asked him to explain anything about my history. But my criminal history was the first thing that came out of his mouth. He read off every charge I ever had to the judge before she decided to make her decision. I have never seen nothing like it in my life. I felt super betrayed, it's almost like the prosecutor was my lawyer and Mr Michael had turned into the prosecution. Needless to say, I ended up with a much harsher sentence than what was agreed upon. Everything I just explained are facts. If you're thinking about hiring Mr. Michael then go right ahead but you're better off taking your chances with a public defender. This is your warning, that's the experience I had with Mr. Michael. He might have gotten better over the years, who knows.

I hired Jim Michael on a serious felony charge a while back and he held my hand through the whole process he always stayed in contact and always returned my call. And the price I paid to retain him was very reasonable considering my case. He's very understanding and considerate he will work with you. Not to mention he's well known through judges and District Attorneys which in my opinion is helpful because at the end of the day "Its who you know" that determines certain outcomes

Do yourself a favor and don't hire this man. He's a racist and a bad lawyer I hired him to defend me and I wasn't satisfied so I ended up firing him he ended up going to the judge and having me locked up.

Very grateful to Mr. Michael for helping us navigate the court process for a traffic violation. We had a very favorable outcome thanks to his ability to prepare and negotiate with the court solicitors. We would not have been able to do it on our own.

Wonderful experience. Great customer service highly recommend ❤️

Attorney Jim Michael did an amazing job for our Family. He successfully guided us through one felony issue and we glad that we been out of all those troubles after great help from him. Grateful!

We had a very difficult issue with respect to a family member that had long term potential impact if we did not get a positive outcome. We were familiar with Jim Michael from another matter he had handled for a non-family member. Based on that, we decided to engage with Jim.

Jim was awesome, providing us with a clear understanding of how we will navigate the issue, potential outcomes with a realistic outlook, and mentoring for our family member. In the end, after following Jim's advice all the way through, and Jim's clear knowledge and understanding of not only the law, but also of the judicial system, judge, clerk, etc., we had an excellent outcome. Now our goal is to never speak to Jim again! :-)

A big thanks to Jim and his help.

Jim Michael really knows his way around the legal system. He is a great attorney!!!!

Very responsive and effective representation.

Mr.Michaels is a hard fighting working attorney.. He will try his hardest to get you fair justice.. I'll give him a WELL RECOMMENDATION ....

I hired Jim Michael as I was referred to him. I hired him for two separate issues in 2015 and 2017 and he did an amazing job. I was represented better than I could have ever imagined.My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained. Jim fought hard for me. He went above and beyond and did everything he could to ensure a great outcome.His office was highly professional and responsive. As a person of colored I never experience racism from him. I would highly recommend Jim to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest, knowledgeable, and will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. Should any situation arise, I would not hesitate to seek representation from Jim Michael again. Thanks again!!

Attorney Jim Michael did an amazing job for our Family. He successfully guided us through some very dark, drug related times, involving one of our children. Grateful!

Good lawyer Highly recommended. He communicates well and is a straight shooter. I seen reviews saying he's a racist and I can say I have never seen any indication of that. As a matter of fact upon my first initial visit to his office I was pleasantly surprised that the receptionist was a African American Lady his interaction with her was very warm and polite. and that made me comfortable.

Please do your research. My experience with Mr. Michaels was not the best and his avvo ratings seemed to be bought and paid. I gave him 10,000 to handle a case for my boyfriend and honestly feel as though a public defender would of been ten times better. He had a burglary charge and the other people involved got probation. My boyfriend got 7 years in jail. Never even had any priors. He was not even as involved as the other people. I feel like he miss handled his case. He was not prepared the day of court and smelled like he was drinking. He assured us that he would be fine. We were not prepared for 7 yrs. All and all if I had a chance to do it over I definitely would not of hired him. I hired another lawyer for an appeal and they even said the deal my boyfriend received was crazy.

Racist

Jim Michael has worked with me for many years. He defiantly went above and beyond my expectations. His willingness to strive to do the very best for you and your situation is fantastic.
Thank you Jim for all you have done for me and my family.

Omg... He is a racist. I hired him to do some legal work for me and just his whole attitude was malicious. The stuff he said to me was horrible after he received full payment. The other comment is very true.

Used Mr. MIchael over a year ago on a referral from another attorney. Best thing we did was choosing Mr. Michael. I felt, and know he did way more than just what he was hired to do. Also to this day I can email him, and get a quick response. Wouldn't hesitate using again or blink when he mentions his retainer (which was more than fair.). Thanks Jem.
