Professional knowledgeable. All actions are with clients beat intent

I would highly recommend Sergey Mikhiln to anyone facing criminal matters involving domestic abuse or the like I had a very complicated situation involving a very conniving ex girlfriend who relapsed on opiates. She wouldn’t vacate my home and as an act of desperation fabricated a DA Laws in Ma are... very strong in favor of “the victim “, especially in a male vs female accusation I was removed from my home while she stayed there on my dime for almost a year Sergey was prepared knowledgeable and always cool under pressure We were prepared to go to trial but the “victim “ showed up too high to testify and when she finally came out of it told the court she didn’t want to testify Didn’t want to perjur herself is more like it So the case was dismissed before trial which is beat case scenario, but had we gone to trial, not only did I feel Sergey was fully prepared I was fully confident the case would be dismissed Huge thank you and my strongest recommendations to anyone ever in need of legal council

Best lawyer for criminal matters Plymouth County.

Sergey, truly thank you for professional treatment of my case. A complicated case involving family and pushing, in turn charged with felony assault and battery. Sergey came up with a masterful defense which definitely helped in my case. I recommend Sergey for any criminal case. My ca...se was dismissed before trial which was the best possible outcome. You want this guy in your corner, smart, knows the system and the courts and fought hard for me, tough and persuasive! Sergey Mikhlin is my lawyer ongoing no doubt if ever the need comes up!

My Trial

I want to say thank you to Mr. Mikhlin who represented me on assault and battery charges. I am very satisfied with my experience. Mr. Mikhlin is a true professional and very through. Due to his diligence we were able to win the trail. He was with me every step of the way and made sure that I felt co...mfortable. He impressed me with his knowledge of criminal law, attention to detail, integrity and hard work ethic. I highly reccomend him.

Trusting Caring Lawyer and We Won!!

He sincerely cared about my case and what I was going through. He was extremely responsive whenever I needed him. He went above and beyond. He is very fair with pricing and it was worth every penny. He is extremely knowledgeable and I believe he had prior experience working as a DA. I told him the tr...uth, for I really got myself in trouble and looked guilty for leaving the scene of an accident and everything pointed to me being guilty. I even further incriminated myself went to the cops against his counsel and lied to them. However, he got the entire story from me and he believed in me and what I said. He believed I was innocent no matter how much I looked guilty. The clerk had it out for me and kept looking at my record with intent to issue a complaint. My attorney stuck to the facts showed him the pictures of no damage and the clerk dismissed them saying it could be any pole. My lawyer persisted and showed my phone calls to AAA right after the accident and my Lyft ride to prove I was on scene for an hour. He told the clerk the truth in regards to my lying to the police, which was I elaborate the truth when I get nervous and made it seem worse than it was. The clerk said I got an excellent lawyer because he was going to issue a complaint and did not that day. We won!!! I high recommend him he is the best. He really cares and will fight for you!

OUI - Drugs matter

Attorney Mikhlin represented me on an OUI-drugs (2nd offense). He immediately pointed out all of the weaknesses in the Commonwealth's case, including the holes in the police report itself and the deficiencies in the roadside tests the officer conducted, and recommended we take it to trial. While I ...waited for trial, he was prompt to return calls and emails when I had questions about the case. He filed motions in limine to exclude evidence before the trial, all of which were allowed. He was prepared for trial and, frankly, he destroyed the police officer during cross examination by taking the officer's vague notes in the police report and forcing the officer to go through each step of each test the officer conducted, what the correct way to administer the test was, and how the officer failed to administer each one correctly. After the Commonwealth presented their four witnesses, Attorney Mikhlin requested a required finding of not guilty from the judge because the Commonwealth had not proven their case. The judge agreed with Attorney Mikhlin and found that I was not guilty without hearing any evidence at all from Attorney Mikhlin. I highly recommend Attorney Mikhlin.
