TOP NOTCH LAWYER!

I was referred to Mr. Parlow several months ago for a situation with my 19 y.o. son. I was informed he was the BEST attorney around and # 1 in Bucks County. My son and I met with Michael within a day of contacting him and I was immediately impressed by his thoroughness and professional manner. He ...especially made us feel very comfortable and 'at ease'. The scary part for my son was the fact that he already had an open case in Philadelphia, which an ARD was pending and was now looking at a DUI in Bucks (which pretty much was a weekend in jail and a years suspension of driving privileges if charged. Our attorney in Philly was totally aware of this second case and not until Mr. Parlow brought to our attention that there is also a first time offenders privilege known as a Section 17, and that it would be in my son's best interest to decline the ARD that was pending in Philly and ask for a Section 17. This opened up the opportunity for him to go for the ARD in Bucks for my son. Just the fact that he was willing to offer us some verbal advice (at no extra charge) in reference to a case he had nothing to do with, was very impressive to my son and I. So we ran into a problem with the DA in Bucks not wanting to give my son the ARD since he felt my son obviously didn't learn from his first mistake. Mr. Parlow was not settling for that and set us up for a new court date. He fought for my son and in the end he was approved for the ARD program which only involved a 60 day license suspension and some fines and community service. I have spoken to many people who have been in similar situations and much less fortunate with their outcomes. They all say they wish they had known Mr. Parlow for their case. Michael has also contacted me since just to check and see how my son is making out. He has always made sure to let us know that we can contact him at any time in reference to any questions we may have. Bottom line, I would recommend Michael Parlow, ESQ to everyone I know that has any legal issues. He's TOP NOTCH in my book.

A season veteran worth every penny

Mr. Parlow is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but he genuinely cares about his clients. He will fight for the best possible outcome for you as he has done for me. I came to him with two criminal charges including a DUI that I was incredibly nervous about fighting. From the door I was comfortable b...eing 100% honest with him, and he never looked on me with judgement. He was very specific and patient in explaining EVERYTHING until he was sure that I understood it step by step. As of today, Mr. Parlow was able to have my charges taken care of. I am incredibly thankful and 110% satisfied with this attorney. He is very well known and respected within the system as he was referred to me by a constable I greatly trust in Bensalem. I'm happy that I didn't go to anyone else, and I guarantee you will be 110% satisfied with his service as well as your outcome.

Exceptional/Outstanding

Not only was Michael P. trustworthy ,responsive ,knowledgeable and kept me informed, he was truly thorough in his actions. From the first day i stepped foot in his office til the day my case was over his word was as good as gold. I was facing a few years in jail, spoke to several lawyers and kept get...ting the same answers "because of your background you'll have to do some time". After reviewing my situation Michael P. said" there's clearly something wrong here" and piece by piece, motion by motion he broke down the accusations against me. Even though settling for a far lesser charge i am not doing any jail time and i am thankful for the knowledge and advise of Michael P. Thank You!!!

Rescued from a stressful situation

In meeting Mr Parlow he made me feel like the situation was under control. Repeatedly counseling me on what to do once I was in court. When it came to the day in court, I was well prepared and had no problem with what we went over in my case. I received phone calls from his office reminding me when m...y next appointment was . Overall ,Mr parlow and his office helped me tremendously in a bad situation which turned out to my favor. He was thorough on court day and to me he is a Super Lawyer.
