Outstanding Legal Counsel

Michael Baer is extremely analytical, creative, determined and wise. He has fantastic interpersonal skills and is able to make the most nervous client at ease in his presence. He fights for his clients rights with tenacity yet balances this determination with good will and humor. He is one of the bes...t attorneys I have ever worked with and recommend him for all your legal needs.

The calm needed after the storm...

When I was in my traffic accident a while back, I had to hire a lawyer to advise me. Michael was wonderful. He understood the stress and tension I was under -- and he handled the situation with a professionalism and calmness that made the whole situation tolerable. He handled the situation with ...my best interest at the heart of every decision. I highly recommend Michael..

Traffic Ticket.....

When I got a traffic ticket recently I was so nervous until a friend of mine referred me to Michael D. Baer. I consulted with him and immediately liked him and hired him. I knew instantly that he would take care of my matter having my best interest at heart. Indeed, that was the case. We went to cou...rt and he worked out a plea bargain deal with the prosecutor and got my 3 Point Ticket downgraded to a lesser charge with NO POINTS. I was so happy and even happier to have met such a great lawyer. I will always go to Mr. Baer for any legal assistance I may need in the future (hopefully, not a traffic ticket thou). Very professional, kind and easy to talk to.

A very good Attorney, and more importantly a great man.

Mr. Baer is very focused and thorough. He is truly an advocate for his clients. He helped me and my family through some very difficult circumstances. Without him, the outcomes would have not been as favorable as they were. He is compassionate and professional. I was impressed to see how respecte...d he was by other attorneys we came in contact with. I thank Mr. Baer and highly recommend him.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Michael and I have worked together on a great many cases. He is diligent, creative, responsive and ultra reliable. I not only work together with Michael, I also refer clients to him. This to me is the highest praise that I can show towards another professional. That is to refer to him a relative, friend or client to have Micheal work on a matter for them. He really knows how important it is to keep his clients fully informed at all key phases of each case. Further, Michael knows how to and does obtain great results for his clients.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
