Michelle Holmes Changed My Life

Michelle worked tirelessly to win my case against a former employer. I was referred to her through family friends and upon meeting her for the first time, I immediately knew we had a connection and that she was the attorney for me and my case. She worked with me financially through a tough case and a... rough patch in my life while I was unemployed, and she was there for me whenever I needed her. We were up against one of the "best" employer defense firms in the state and Michelle stuck to our strategy - no matter how long it took or how many times they gave us the run around. She is realistic in setting expectations and was 100% transparent through the entire process - working WITH me while working for me. One thing I can say for certain is that she takes no prisoners when it comes to her clients and her persistence and rigorous follow through never ceased to amaze me. The outcome of that case couldn't have been better and she changed my life with her results - no thanks to her patience and belief in me. Shortly after my first case, I hired her to represent me in a civil case and again, I couldn't have asked for better results. I can't imagine what I would have done or what my life would be like had I not had her as my attorney. I highly recommend Michelle to all my friends, family, and associates (and I don't take that lightly).
