“NOT Guilty for DUI & Reckless Driving”
“I called Mike’s personal phone and was in touch with him right away. He always responded to my phone calls or emails in a timely manner. He outlined my options for defense and explained what he thought would be the best defense for my case. I was very nervous, but Mike made sure I understood every step of the process, what was expected of me and what he would try to do at trial to defend me.” -AVVO client review
