Criminal charges dropped in an accident case

Mike stood by us from the day we met him regarding our case. He was very prompt in answering calls \emails which kind of built our confidence about our case. There were criminal charges in an accident case which were dropped because of Mike's efforts. We are very much happy with the outcome.

Miracle Worker

Michael is a very knowledgeable and well known attorney. He looked out for my best interest and managed to get me off charges that nobody thought he could and he did..

OUI and Child Endangerment

I was arrested and child endangerment and also operating while under alcohol influence, I took breath test at time of arrest and had very high alcohol in me, twice the legal limits. Mike was very reassuring and did guide me through every step, He is highly respected in the court rooms, on final tri...al day, my child endangerment charge was dismissed and for the OUI i got a CWOF. Mike is a great lawyer, I highly recommend him.

Professional, courteous and Well Respected

My decision to hire Michael was almost immediate. I interviewed three other attorneys before meeting with him and made my decision after 30 minutes of conversation. He responded to my call personally and immediately. He is a straight shooter and knows the system well. The three prior attorneys I i...nterviewed were looking to book a trial out six months which wouldn't have worked for me. At the arraignment my pre- trial conference was scheduled for January 2014. I retained Michael and within 15 minutes he called me back and changed my pre trial date to December 2013 and my trial went forward in January 2014 with a Not Guilty verdict. So from the date of the offense to the date of the trial it was not even two months and I got my license back with no restrictions. Not to mention I refused the chemical test which is an automatic suspension of license for 180 days. This speaks volumes to me and confirms that Michael is well respected and knows how to get things done. This was my first offense and my life changed drastically for those two months I can't imagine waiting six months. Michael is a fair and honest man and I appreciate all the effort he put forth on my behalf. So I thank him and highly recommend him to anyone experiencing the same type of situation. One thing to remember even though you are found not guilty the process is not over. I still had to appear before a Hearing Officer at the Registry and in order to reinstate my license I had to pay $500.00 because I refused the chemical test. Michael does not handle that portion of the process. I was impressed with the obvious respect from his peers. He explained the two ways we could defend my case and it went exactly as he said. It is very difficult to put you trust and life in the hands of a complete stranger but I did and I was very happy with my choice. So if you need a trustworthy professional attorney you cannot go wrong. Thanks again.

THE BEST ATTORNEY IN WORCESTER COUNTY!!

All I can say is Mr. Erilich is the BEST attorney I have ever done business with and cannot say enough good about this man. He gets the job done and actually cares. I have done business with other attorneys for my son who has a mental illness and needless to say was not pleased. Called Mike and ...got an appointment next day. He actually gives you his cell phone number and I have called MANY times and he actually answers and if he is busy calls back right away. NO lawyers do that. Can't say enough about this man. My son had several charges and ALL were dismissed. Thank you Mr. Erlich. God Bless you and so happy Worcester has an attorney that actually does what an attorney should do and keeps his word. Final note........was in my doctors office on phone and mentioned Mr. Erlich's name. A man waiting in office heard me and said to me "I have Mr. Erlich as my attorney and you made the right choice." Also left his office one day and the people before me were raving about him and saying how wonderful and caring he is. THANKS MIKE! Hope I don't need a lawyer again but if I do you are on my speed dial and you are the FIRST one I will call. One a scale of 1 to 10 I give this man 100!!
