Review Michael Cuellar

Good Lawyer

Michael was very professional and polite while handling my case. Easy to talk to and isn't hard to contact. He was on time and handled the matter in a sufficient amount of time. Michael turned 3 offenses into 1 minor offense. If you're looking for a good lawyer that cares Michael is your guy.

Best Lawyer!

Posted by

Michael helped me get thru a terrible car accident that left me injured. It's a very confusing process dealing with insurance companies and coverage, and he helped me navigate thru it every step of the way for over the past year! I'm honestly so thankful I had him to back me up and guide me thru this process and fight for my well being. He's very personable and really cares about his clients and overall outcome---I wouldn't have had my injuries taken care of this well without his support! I highly recommend using him for any kind of car accident and injury cases. Thank you, Michael!

Update your contacts with Mike Cuellar's information

Posted by

Mike has been extremely proactive with my husbands case. He asks questions you would never think would be relevant to the case and provides details as to why such information is relevant. If we had issues with getting information from a third party he will jump to assist in getting such information. Most of all he cares about the well being of his clients and doesn't judge you for the reason you need his help, he our attorney who is now a friend. He's worth more than he charges.

Super Professional

Posted by

Michael did a wonderful job and really helped me out. I never had to actually a lawyer before, but he made the whole process a lot less stressful, while assuring me that he would take care of my legal issues. I could easily say he is a great lawyer and the only one I trust because he immediately responds and gets the job done right.
