Exceptional Lawyer

Words cannot express how thankful I am that I hired George Albert Michel IV as my lawyer. He went above and beyond for me and was there to explain and answer any questions I had, and I had several! I was arrested for a DWI with a speeding ticket. The DWI was my first the speeding ticket was not. He m...ade several calls and spoke to the judge/DEA and was able to get the speeding ticket removed. My DWI was knocked down to a driving while Ability impaired which is a traffic Violation thank god. He went through every aspect of my case, walked me through when I had court and what I needed to do and also what would happen. I was very nervous since this was my first DWI and my last! I had a lot of questions and he was ALWAYS there to answer them, he made me comfortable and not stressed I cannot tell you how important that was for me. I would highly recommend him for any case and would use him again in a heartbeat.. I cannot thank him enough for all he has done for me, he is very educated and knows his stuff!!! Thank you so much for all you have done for me!! Words cannot express how thankful I am for him!!

Review - George Michel

Having to "lawyer up" can be a very frightening process. George was very professional and made my decision very easy. We sat down for about an hour to discuss what had happened. We then went through each and every possible outcome. While we were conifdent that I wasn't going to receive the worst char...ge possible, I respected the fact that he took the time to go through all outcomes. George takes every clients situation seriously. He supported me with monthly payment options, resources to be utilized prior to court dates to look better before the judge, and consistently communicated with myself on a bi-weekly basis. George is very professional and has a wealth of knowledge based on his past experiences. He even walked me through the benefits and challenges I might have by choosing a different lawyer (example: better to set final price rather than pay per appearance). Due to that fact that I landed on a fair price with George, I truly believed he had my best interest and wasn't going to steer me wrong. My experience with George resulted in my charges being dropped for a simple ACOD all within the few appearances as he predicted. It's true what they say, "you get what you pay for." George is worth paying for.
