CONFIDENT, COMPASSIONATE & EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONAL DUI LAWYER

Mr. Parlow/ Michael, thank you! To everyone reading this 1.) you are doing the right thing, do your RESEARCH 2.) take a sec to breath, think clearly and find the right person to be on your side during this time. During a major Holiday Weekend I made a mistake, I was DUI, I was selfish, but I'm no...t bad person. The Best Advice I received was to speak with multiple lawyers, "you will know when you feel comfortable"...The 1st 2 where professional, experienced, but they scared me...they wanted me to commit to them on the spot, start journaling all my sobriety, go to AA...and maybe I can get it reduced...for many people that is necessary, but not for all. I F-d up, I made a stupid choice, why was a being made to feel like i needed to apologize to a lawyer? My 3rd meeting was with Mr. Parlow...his genuine review of the case, CLEAR explanations to all of my options and just that been there, done that way of speaking instantly provided a relief (a little at least) and I knew I had the help that understood what was at stake, but confidently let me know we are going to get through this... Hire a Professional, don't settle, the investment in finding the proper lawyer is the most important thing you can do now...for me Michael was that and more...I wish you luck, make the right choice...it does get better...thank you Parlow & Lang and Team...thanks again Michael!!

Best of the best, Don’t look no where else

I want to start off by saying, i started off with a different lawyer for my case (not naming who) Very good lawyer as well, but with the seriousness of my case i quickly found out i had to change lawyers and had to call Mr.parlow, i had been recommended to him through several friends and family who... also thought i should go with Mr.Parlow, communication is key in these situations and parlow makes sure you are up to date on everything, i was going to have to do 18-36 months in a state prison for a firearm and drug possession charge. Parlow quickly took action and although it was a lengthy process, he made sure i got probation and could continue changing my life for the better as he understands that one makes wrong decisions during life, but one must change in order to not commit the same mistakes, i am forever grateful for Mr.Parlow he was my only hope to fix my life and being able to be with my family and reconstruct my life

Best Lawyer - Law Firm

Our Son was falsely accused of a crime in 2020. A close personal friend recommended Michael, and it was the best decision we made. Michael worked very closely with us throughout the process. He routinely checked in to update us on the current situation and what was going on with the legal process. We... met with him often to walk through options and plans moving forward. Micahel made himself available to talk whenever we needed it or had a question. As we neared the trial,Michael filled us in on all the research & preparation he had been doing. We felt very confident going into the trial, and Michael did a wonderful job during his cross examination of the accuser. The accuser had withheld evidence that Michael had requested at an earlier hearing and the case ended in a mistrial. Instead of going through the whole process again we were offered a minor charge that would not limit our son's future. Because Michael was very prepared and with his extensive experience in the courtroom - I would recommend him 1000%. Our family cannot thank him enough.

20/10 Highly Recommend!

I had the best experience using Michael Parlow as my attorney. I had gotten a DUI with a charge for not consenting to a blood test. I went into everything knowing almost nothing about the legal system because I had never before been in trouble. Mr. Parlow and his exceptional secretary guided me thro...ugh everything and explained things to me in a way I would understand. I could have gotten 3-5 years with a suspended license but with the help of Mr. Parlow i got 2 months.

Exceeded all expectations!!

My son was arrested for drug distribution and a friend recommended Michael. Our biggest fear was jail time. Michael met with us in person, explained how the process works and walked us through every step. His fees were fair and he always returned our calls whenever we had questions. He reassured us... but never made any promises. In the end, thanks to Michael, my son got no jail time and charges were dismissed. He's an exceptional lawyer and did exceed all expectations!
