If you ever get charged with a crime if ur lucky you'll get Michael Rooney as your attorney

I was Falsely accused of a robbery assault charge and arrested by a warrant squad 1 month after the accusation without being aware or notified by any detective about a warrant, at the first arraignment not only did Mr. Rooney convince the judge to release me on my own recognizance but shockingly Mr.R...ooney exposed the accusers criminal record proving this person to be a convicted felon who has lied in a court room a number of times before, as the proceedings went on Mr. Rooney was able to get the charges against me dismissed & sealed. Thank you Mr. Rooney for your excellent defense and for saving my record. During a court case theres alot of pressures knowing you have a good lawyer such as Mr. Michael Rooney takes alot of those pressures away when it comes to defending his clients Mr. Rooney is always at the top of his game hes prepared with all the tools needed for a good defense he's professional, sophisticated, very knowledgeable & out spoken for his clients and has the reputation to prove it Mr. Rooney is taylor made born to be a lawyer.
