Montgomery Counties Best Legal Team

I was referred to Michael Parlow through a business associate and could not be more thankful for hiring truly the greatest legal teams in Montgomery County. When I was first introduced to Mr. Parlow I had just been arrested for my 2nd DUI in Montgomery County and feared my consequences would be life... shattering. With a career in sales my job was 100% dependent on my ability to drive and meet with clients, finding a lawyer who could help me maintain my drivers license for as long as possible was my number one priority. From start to finish working with Michael and his partner Paul was a dream. They fought hard for my cases, handled all of the paperwork and details required and were all around a true pleasure to work with. Michael was able to get me registered back into the ARD program for one of my cases and lowered the charges of my second case, basically an unheard of outcome. I would and will recommend this legal team to any and every person I know! Thank you again to truly one of the greatest attorneys!

Couldn't find a better lawyer if I tried!

At 19 years old, with 2 pending charges against me that could dramatically affect the rest of my life, I put my trust into Parlow. Never once did I feel unsure, or think he didn't have my best interest in mind. Not always being the easiest person to deal with, he was beyond patient & worked with me t...hroughout the entire case, no matter how big or small the issue. He made me feel more like a family member than a client with his genuine personality & the fact that he showed me he ACTUALLY cared about my cases - I never once felt alone or lost hope. Without a doubt, Parlow is the BEST at what he does & I would never recommend another attorney to anyone in need of one. He single handedly saved my life & I'm forever grateful!

Awesome

I was doubtful the first time I met Parlow. I didn't have much of a good experience with lawyers, and thought this would be much of the same. I was quickly shown WHY he had some of the top ratings of any lawyer I've seen. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a legal help. He blew my expectation...s out of the park.

DUI

After I had Michael represent me in my first case involving my DUI where he was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable of my situation he got my case dismissed. The charges were refiled and of course I went to Michael again with confidence, he has restored my dignity and was once again superio...r in court, I would recommend him for his confidence, knowledge of the law. If you need a lawyer, while that is unfortunate, he is the lawyer for the job.

Driving while DUI suspended.

I was all worked up when I got caught driving on a DUI suspended license, because I didn't know at the time that I was gambling with possible jail time. I contacted Mike, after being referred by my DUI lawyer, and Mike put me at ease. He oozes confidence in and out of the courtroom, and his tactics w...ork... at least for me, in this particular case. He definitely prefers to be paid upfront, before seeing a courtroom, which is understandable. I was unemployed at this time, and I was going through some very rough times financially. Mike found a way to make it work, and that really meant a lot to me. He charged a very reasonable fee, and again, he worked with me a lot, despite being a pain in his ass! at the end of the day, he had the case thrown out, because the officer that pulled me over didn't show up on time. Mike had made a mental note of this, and asked the judge to get the traffic citation out of the way first. the judge obliged, looked at the clock, and then threw it out. Mike then turned around and told me to get the heck out of there asap. if he hadn't, and that cop showed up, the judge would have had every right to overrule (or whatever the proper term is) the case and proceed with the hearing. now THAT, my friends, is the epitome of thinking on your feet, and working with what you have at hand. best money I ever spent! hopefully I won't be putting any more in his pocket, but I'll keep his number handy, just in case I drop the ball and screw up again.
