The Right Choice..

I was facing jail time for driving a vehicle without an interlock device when I was supposed to be driving a vehicle that had the device. Long story short, my car that had the device was suddenly broken down & I had to borrow a friends car to pick up my son because I received an unexpected call that ...his mother was in the hospital & my son would have been stranded had I not gone to get him. My friend was working at the time & could not drive me himself. I cannot say how stressed out I was throughout this whole ordeal, as jail time would have meant i would have lost my job after i just received a huge promotion. Michael was a calming voice throughout this process, even though the ADA was making me out to be a criminal. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome, as Michael was able to have the major charges dropped at trial & i was able to plead guilty to a disorderly conduct offense with no fines!! Michael wanted to go to trial as he truly believed that we would get the entire case thrown out, but i was ok with the disorderly conduct and chose that route. Michael was tenacious at the prelim hearing, and i watched as he represented other clients while i was awaiting my turn in court, and i couldnt help but believe that he would have delivered had i chosen to go to trial. Either way, i am beyond happy that i chose Michael to represent me and now myself & my family can breathe easy knowing we made the right choice. I would recommend Michael to anyone in need of representation without any hesitation

Outstanding Lawyer

My son was fausely accused of a crime that he did not commit. We talked with the officers and dectectives because he had nothing to hide. But he was never officially cleared of the crime and finally it was time to get legal representation. I spoke with Mr. Parlow, who came highly recommended from ...multiple people. He spent a lot of time listening to the charges and situation. Mr. Parlow called over to the police department and spoke with the dectective and called me back within minutes. Told me he would follow the case and get me updates, telling me from the beginning there should be no case against my son. He stated I needed to be patient while they go through the process. It was a long process, but Mr. Parlow was there along the way and letting me know it will go away as they keep digging. He was 100% right the whole way. But as a parent it's tough to live through. Mr. Parlow spoke with me many times as well as the dectective to get information. I would recommend him to everyone, he is caring, professional and very personal. Per the officers and dectective he is well respected and knows the system well. I can not thank Mr. Parlow enough for his support and guidance, he knows his business and is the one to call with any legal issue!

One of the best

I was referred to Michael Parlow by a couple of people. I was very happy with my choice. Being that this was my first charge I had absolutely no clue what had to be done, but Michael Parlow did. He explained to me every detail that I needed to know and had an answer for most of my questions. He also ...worked with my schedule the best he could. His staff is very professional, as well as him. In the end the DA withdrew all charges against me. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a criminal defense lawyer. Thank you Michael Parlow.

Bucks County’s finest!

We knew Michael Parlow from the community, and knew of his impeccable reputation. When my son was facing DUI charges, he was the one I reached out to without hesitation. While Michael immediately put us at ease and calmed me down, he was also honest, sincere, and walked us through everything step by ...step, explaining all of the possible outcomes. He met with us on several occasions, explaining everything in such detail, that I️ just knew we were in great hands. Today, we had a favorable outcome. I️ cannot thank Michael enough, and would recommend his services wholeheartedly!!

Simply unbelievable!

Michael Parlow truly exceeded my expectations. He spent time meeting wit me, understanding my situation and background, and hit the ground running. I was facing a DUI situation and due to some extenuating circumstances, at first I was denied ARD. As a result of his tireless effort and influence an...d his knowledge of the system, I was subsequently approved for ARD. This was NO small task and he went out of his way to make this happen. I am thrilled to have had him and would recommend him to ANYONE!!! Thank you sooooo much Michael. Truly the best.
