Michael Dreishpoon

Back in June of 2001, I was an electrician’s helper and was injured when I received an electric shock and fell off of a 6-foot ladder. I hired an attorney to help me out, but I did not feel comfortable with him, so I hired Michael Dreishpoon, Esq. to take over my case. From Day 1 I felt as if ...Michael Dreishpoon cared about my case. He listened to what I had to say and thoroughly explained how he was going to get me compensated for all of my pain and suffering. After 3 years of litigation against 2 large Manhattan law firms, Michael negotiated a one million dollar settlement on the brink of trial. Since that day, I have recommended Michael Dreishpoon to several people who needed good legal representation. I found him to be honest, hard-working and available to answer all of my questions.

In July of 2009, my ex-girlfriend falsely accused me of stealing money from her checking account and threatening her via e-mails and text messages. I told the detectives that she was lying, but they didn't care what I had to say and arrested me on Petit Larceny and Aggravated Harassment charges. I ...hired Michael Dreishpoon to represent me on both cases. Michael worked hard and eventually convinced the district attorney to offer a plea bargain deal wherein the cases would be dismissed and sealed in 6 months if I stayed out of trouble. As part of the deal, my ex-girlfriend would have an order of protection against me for those 6 months. Rather than telling me to take the deal so that he could move on to the next case, Michael advised me to reject it and see if he could convince the judge to dismiss the cases by submitting a motion. I wasn't thrilled about having to go back to court a bunch more times, but I didn't like the sound of an order of protection hanging over my head for 6 months, so I agreed to take his advice and roll the dice. After a few more court dates, Michael got both cases dismissed! I would recommend Michael to anyone that needs a lawyer. He's bright, honest, courteous, always available via phone, text or e-mail and knows his way around the courthouse. I've dealt with other attorneys in the past on business transactions and some of them left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm happy to say that Michael does not fall into that category.

I was invovled in an automobile accident of February 8, 2009. About two day later i was contacted by the other insurance company. I looked in the phone book and called Mr.Dreishpoon and told him that the other company was planning a visit to my house. He said whatever you don't open your door to th...ose guys they are not there for you. I listened to him and that was one of the best decisions of my life. I retained him as my lawyer that day. We met in person a couple of days later and it was official. From the first day he was knowledgeable and very responsive to my needs. He let me know all the options that were avaailab
