Michael Parlow saved my future when I was found with 80 grams of cocaine

I was caught up in a situation where I was charged with delivering 80 grams of cocaine. Through an ex friend I hired Parlow and he didn't promise me anything other then his best effort as I didn't want to go to jail or end up with a felony on my record as I am in my 20's and have the rest of my life ...ahead of me. I was scared to death as I have never been in that kind of trouble before. Parlow met with me and kept me updated on the progress of my case all the time. He told me to trust him as he had a plan and I am glad I did. He was able to keep the evidence against me suppressed as he found a case from the past that showed I should not have been searched or arrested. I got no jail, no felony and no misdemeanor. I walked away with a ticket for disorderly conduct for 80 grams of cocaine. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a great lawyer.

Very Knowledgeable Lawer

Michael is an exceptional and very hard working lawyer for his clients. Reached out to his office because I knew his associate Paul Lang (who also helped with my case). It was the smartest call I ever made. I was falsely arrested/accused for driving under the influence. After meeting with Michael & ...Paul for the first time and explained what happened with evidence proving that I was not driving under the influence, they both agreed I had a strong case. I believed in both of them to get me justice right then and there. It was not a slam dunk, and there was some slight gray area to my case, but I have a family of 5 and my livelihood would be directly affected by a conviction in this matter. They explained that it would be a fight, but a fight they felt they could win. Michael had a clear game plan and because of his extensive knowledge of the case law was ultimately able to get all charges dropped. Michael got me justice and kept me from losing a job that would have directly impacted me and my family. We all are happy and thankful that he was my lawyer. Thank You; Michael, from me and my whole family!

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.

Undisputed Heavyweight Champion

This is a man I know on a first name basis! This is a man I trust with my life! When I enter a courtroom, I'm able to stare any judge and da in the eye because I'm standing next to the best in the business! I'm sorry to say our judiciary system don't work! It's prejudice and corrupted! When I'm in co...urt Mike demands I get treated fairly and is not scared to set any judge straight about what they're allowed and not allowed to do when it comes to me! I told him this personally, I don't walk in court without him! Me and my family greatly appreciates this man ! Thanks Mike for being my " My Super Lawyer "
