Posted by James | December 09, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Abuse

Handling my case with big brother bis sister an abuser

A few years ago I looked into what my rights were to get compaction for the nightmare as a child of abuse. Being now in my late 40s an have tried to forget the past, I reached out an Mike was great very compassionate to my feelings an very easy to speak with. Mike DeRuve as helped me every step of th...e way. With that being said even as my psd an nightmares to this day continues he helps finding help for me. The only fear I face now is the court hearing or deposition. This is a every scary thing for me because I don't like talking about it an Mike has really helped me overcome that. Mike really seems to care about his clients, I know this first hand because in the time he started working with me my husband was diagnosed with cancer. Mike asks about my husband just about every time we speak. An even calls my husband by name. Well as stated I can't thank Mike for all he has done an doing to help me through this very difficult time of my life.

If you need an attorney to hit a home run for you Michael Deruve is the guy.

From the time Michael Deruve signed up to be my attorney I knew I had a fighter on my side. I learned quickly that Michael was ready to go all 12 rounds for the win. A brilliant legal mind combined with true compassion for his clients make Michael Deruve the full and complete package.
