When you are worried about losing your case call mike

I was having a difficult time dealing with a horrible landlord issue and Mike made sure my case was handled the best way possible. Took care of making sure that I was prepared for the outcome and even worried enough to let me know what to do if we didn’t get a good outcome. Would definitely hire agai...n if I ever had legal trouble . 20/10

Impressive

We recently used Attn. Shivick for a very complicated ordeal with our landlord, when we were withholding rent for unsanitary and unsafe conditions. He stuck by us through the good, the bad, the ugly, and fought tooth and nail for us. We ended up winning the entire case. He is very detail-oriented, fo...cused, and intelligent. He could cite the laws off of the top of his head and reference cases from decades ago that applied to our scenario. I was very impressed! He can be a little intimidating and wants to get straight to the point, but that is exactly who you want in your corner when things go awry. We are so happy that we found him, and how helpful he was. I highly recommend Attn. Schivick if you ever have to deal with a headache of a landlord, because he will certainly make your life so much easier!

This is the housing lawyer you want.

Attorney Shivick has helped my family twice out of no fault evictions. It was not easy by any means or process but Attorney Shivick handled it in a professional and diligent way. I would recommend him to anyone in an eviction or housing dispute.

Attorney Shivick Works for YOU!

I contacted Attorney Shivick after I won a small claims case, but the defendant's attorney appealed and started to file motions I was not familiar with. Attorney Shivick went right to work on gathering all of the evidence I presented to the magistrate, preparing himself to be ready to speak to the d...efense motions. He stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process, always keeping me confident about our case. The appeal trial lasted over six hours, but never once did I worry. I found Attorney Shivick to be much more prepared than the defense attorney; sighting case law and precedence to help our case. We ended up winning the appeal through his hard work and dedication to my case, no matter how small it may have been.
