5 months ago“I’ve been knowing Michelle for about 6 or 7 years, when I hired her initially I was not even getting in trouble yet in life, my kids father was and serious things that she had got him off on, or probation and always has her client best interest! She has always helped me my friends, and family a lot and I trust her with my life! Plus too know you have someone who genuinely cares to handle things that are out of your/my control, all I do is just pay and know everything is took care of literally! I couldn’t ask for a better attorney that is communicative and concerned and that actually knows how to do there job, she is helping me with a case as we speak and I know my lawyer has went over and beyond for me! I appreciate her. love you Michelle “
I’m very pleased in my decision to retain Michelle in my case. She was superbly attentive of my individual needs. She respectively advised me of choices I had that would be beneficial to me, short and long term. Being the professional she is, she exemplifies what I feel all people would want in a person of her skill-craft. I was speechless with her logistics in court. If you need someone who takes care of business. Call her. Thanks again, Michelle”

Our first goal will always be to try to get your case dismissed. We do not just “roll over” and recommend you take a plea when dismissal may be possible. But, if a negotiated guilty plea with probation is what you want, and dismissal is not likely, we will get you the best probation terms possible. And, if you want a trial, we will proceed to get you a jury or bench trial to present your defenses to the allegations against you.
