Highly effective and experienced

I hired Mr. Parlow at the recommendation of a firm that I've done business with for many years when I ultimately needed a criminal attorney. He came highly recommended and met with me on weekends and evenings to prepare for my case. Mr. Parlow gave me a feeling of confidence about the process, wha...t to expect and how to proceed. When I had my court appearance Mr. Parlow was able to negotiate a very serious charge to a summary offense and close my case in the process. I would not hesitate to recommend him highly to to anyone who finds themselves in a situation where they need an excellent criminal attorney.

Very Professional and Confident

I hired Mr. Parlow because I was facing stalking and harassment charges by my neighbor who filed a civil criminal complaint against me with the District Attorney. Mr. Parlow was able to get the stalking charge dropped and at the trial for the other charges, he was able to show that my neighbor was l...ying and that her testimony was over exaggerated and not credible. He knew what questions would catch her in a lie and counseled me and prepared me for my own testimony with confidence. He was very professional and kept me calm throughout the process. I was found not guilty on all remaining charges. I would highly recommend him.

The Lawyer of the Era

Michael Parlow is an excellent lawyer. In my personal experience, I was facing two separate charges. One for possessoin of marijuana and the other was a DUI. I had no clue what would happen to me or who to go to for help. When my charges came in the mail so did all the lawyer letters, as most of ...you might know, asking to represent me. Once I was done reading them all I settled on two different law firms to choose from. Michael Parlow was willing to see me and hear me out for a free consultation while the other one wanted to do things by phone. Once meeting him, Michael knew what to do right away. He immediately took action to help me out with my case without seeing a penny from me up front. All he had to go on was my word that I would be able to pay him and he took my word. A couple of days later i made my first payment only to find out that he has already written letters and made phone calls to people to help me out. He than set up a meeting with me to explain what he was trying to do. While he explained to me that nothing is a guarantee, he assured me that he will do his best to make things go the right way. Michael Parlow knew what i had to do and when i had to do it and all the time he told me to try not to worry and just focus on what is important in my life such as family and rehabilitation. Through his efforts, i was able to get both cases lumped together and i became eligible for ARD. Thanks to him, along with staying out of trouble on my end, I will have nothing on my record after all is said and done. If anyone out there is looking for an amazing lawyer and reads this, choose Michael Parlow. He is hard working, extremely knowledgeable and won't beat around the bush for what needs to get done. Thank you Michael for all that you have done for me.

Best Lawyer in Bucks!

If I could give Mike Parlow more than 5 stars I would.... My husband had an accident with a gun. Luckily no one was hurt. The local DA not only charged him with endangerment, but also attached a felony charge when we didn't plead guilty to the initial charges. Mike Parlow was so helpful with helpin...g us make decisions. He showed confidence in the case from the moment we met him. Never in trouble with the law ever we were scared, nervous, and unsure of everything. Mike was reassuring and made us feel comfortable. He never made promises he couldn't keep, and always gave us worse and best case senerios. Final result was amazing. The possibilities of jail time and he got 1 yr probation and no felony charges. With this being the first time we had to hire a lawyer we didn't have any trust at first. It's hard to trust someone with your future that you don't even know. After just a few visits we were confident that we made the right choice with Mike. He was always available for questions no matter how minor they were. And believe me we had a bunch. I can't thank him enough for all of his help. We will hopefully never need a lawyer again, but I'll be sure to only refer him to friends or family.

Amazing Super Lawyer - Highly Impressed

If you are looking for the best lawyer to fight your case I strongly suggest you choose Michael Parlow. I was facing over 100 years for a rape case tried by a jury. The strategy and skill that Michael Parlow displayed was amazing. Even the judge was impressed. This case went on from 2013 to 2016 b...ecause of the amount of charges that were against me. Throughout the whole case Michael kept me confident that things would work out. The DA would not give me a deal so the case went to trial. Michael Parlow was very strategic in how we chose our jury. He had an eye for those he knew would be good for the jury. It was a long hard journey but I was acquitted of every charge. No probation and no jail time at all. I walked out a free man. I promise you if you're facing any kind of situation Michael Parlow is the best criminal defense lawyer in the business. Choose Michael Parlow.
