Great Man

Recently, my family had to retain Mr. Mohun to represent my Son on a felony criminal charge in which my Son was innocent. Not an easy job when everyone had my Son convicted before the ink on the ticket was dry. Thanks to Mr. Mohun's legal knowledge and quick action, we got the news two days ago tha...t all of the charges against my Son have been dropped and charges filed against the "real criminal". On top of Mr. Mohun's knowledge and skills as a remarkable criminal defense attorney, he is a compassionate and caring man. He put my family's hearts and minds at peace through this entire process. We knew we were in great hands. We cannot thank him enough!

Michael Mohun- An Criminal Law Expert and Pioneer

I hold Attorney Michael Mohun at high esteem and regard. My story and case were unique in nature; circumstances that only Mr. Mohun could handle. His expertise in criminal law, specifically DWI practice, is unmatched. The moment I walked into Mike's office, I knew I found the right guy to defend me. ...He treated me with kindness and welcomed me with open arms. He fearlessly defended me like I was his own son. Mr.Mohun went to war for me and due to his unabashed efforts, the entirety of my case was dismissed and the charges were dropped. I cannot thank Mike enough and nothing gives me more satisfaction than to write this review and recommend Mike Mohun to any and all of my friends should they find themselves in a bind. Thanks again Mike!

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.
