Very Professional and Knowledgeable

I recently closed on my first house and as a first time home buyer I was really nervous about the whole transaction. I was extremely lucky to find an attorney that actually cared about the process. Michael was very professional, knowledgeable and he guided me through the process with ease. I feel M...ichael and his staff go above and beyond to put their clients first. This firm is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend Mike and the team to everyone!

Posted by Dana | June 05, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Highly recommend!!

I was looking for quite some time to find a reputable and trustworthy lawyer to handle my Estate. I am so happy I waited and did not rush. I then got Mr Baer's contact info through my sister's friends. And boy oh boy... good things DO come to those who wait..... Not only is Mr Baer a well accomplish...ed professional, who is knowledgeable and with a lot of experience, but he is delightful and the kindest human being! He genuinely cares about his clients and their families. Always there to help and advise either as a professional or as a friend. That's almost unheard of from a lawyer these days! Mr. Baer handled my Estate in the most swift and comfortable manner and I feel truly blessed to have him as my lawyer!

Posted by Susan | September 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Highly Recommended

I recently hired Michael on behalf of my parents. They needed a lawyer to update their wills and power of attorney. Michael responded promptly and prepared all the documents in no time. He even made a house call to my parents house as my mother cannot get around. Michael is professional and knowl...edgeable. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs legal services.

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.

Michael Baer is a go-to guy!

Michael Baer was great! He is extremely helpful, understanding and generally a great person. Whenever I have a question about anything I never hesitate to ask him. With him, you aren't just another client. He knows all of his clients by name and cares about you as if you are a personal friend or he's... known you for a long time. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs any kind of legal help.

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. I highly recommend and endorse this Michael Baer."

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.
