Mike Slukka is the man!!!
I was facing some pretty serious charges, won't go into specifics on that but a good friend of mine who hired him for his cases recommended Mike Slukka, to which I considered and glad I did. He had my charges brought down to misdemeanors. Money well spent. Too bad he is retired..God bless him

Great lawyer
He got me out of serving time on a burglary case. Very professional but explained things that weren't clear as well. Very smart lawyer and I do recommend his services to anyone.

Awesome lawyer!
The motor vehicles wanted to suspend me for 3 years and I hired Michael to fight it and I ended up with NO Suspension at all! I drive for a living and he saved my job! He is also a great person and very kind!
