The Best Choice.. The Only Choice! ! He saved me and my family years of heartbreak!!!

July 2015 I was arrested for 4 felony charges of delivering a controlled substance Percocet. About 10 years previously I started abusing prescription narcotics for back pain. I became addicted and heavily involved in networking pain meds with so-called "friends" for over 10 years. I was turned in by ...one of these "friends", he set me up with an undercover police officer which I sold some of my prescription too. I am a 47 year old divorced man with 5 children and I work very hard for them. When I was arrested I thought my life was over. I had given my ex-wife the tools to keep my children from me and I was going to jail, or so I thought. Like my divorce I interviewed four lawyers, giving me about 5 minutes of thier time three lawyers told me I was facing a mandatory 6 months and probation, One told me 2 to 4 years in prison?? Michael Parlow was recommended to me by 2 people. He sat me down and basically interviewed me, he asked me what I wanted in my life he didn't make me feel like a criminal he made me feel like a man that made some bad decisions in my life and deserved another chance. He asked me if I wanted to continue with prescription pain medicine use or if I wanted to get away from it. He gave me three directions that he could take the case. One of them were Drug Court Rehabilitation Program which is what I decided I wanted. He led me through the process and told me exactly what I had to do whenever I was in doubt he was thete for me. DC rehabbed my life and with completion of DC he had all four felonies dropped. : ) Michael worked with my custody lawyer as well because my ex-wife kept my children from me because of my arrest. Working with my custody lawyer they were able to get my children back to me and keep my custody order in tact.. Because of Michael Parlow and his team my life is better than it has been in over a decade. If you do interview other lawyers do yourself a favor and see him. Your life matters to him. Within 5 minutes your choice will be Michael Parlow. Stephen N.

Best of the Best, truly cares about his clients.

Last summer I was looking at multiple felony charges and most likely 20-25 years in prison if convicted on these charges. Thank God I found Michael Parlow!!! I had consultations with roughly 8 different lawyers and after I sat in Michael's office, told him what was going on and listened to how care...fully and methodically he laid out our plan of attack against these chargers, I knew he was best lawyer to have in your corner. Almost a year has gone buy since the initial charges were filed and I'm happy to say that due to Michael's hard work and dedication and the hard work of his entire team, my felony charges have been dropped down to a Simple Assault Misdemeanor and instead of 20-25 years in prison, I am looking at 2 years of probation. I couldn't be happier with how things turned out and I would definitely recommend Michael Parlow and his team to anyone who may find themselves in legal trouble.

A Godsend

While shopping with my daughter at a local pharmacy, I was accused by the store manager of stealing a cosmetic item. The manager told me never to come in the store again and she wouldn't call the police. I called the local police for help as I felt I was being falsely accused of shop lifting. Very l...ong story short, the police decided, they would charge me with 1st count of corruption of a minor and second count of retail theft . I was in a complete panic and didn't know where to turn. My life had been turned upside down that quickly. Mr. Parlow was referred to me through mutual acquaintances. He met with me immediately and put my mind at ease on how the process was going to play out. He even predicted the outcome based on his experience and knowledge of the system. Throughout this 17 month, painful ordeal, he's been nothing but attentive, responsive, compassionate, and exceeded my expectations in every way. For a lawyer with a VERY busy practice , you would think I was his only client. I had no choice but to take the high road and go for the ARD (he negotiated with the DA as I was not even eligible) which was the safest outcome for me and most importantly my family and their future. I am forever indebted to Mr. Michael Parlow. He is truly a class act- human being.

Great

Ive been dealing with Mike since 2012 and him and his team are great. He helped me beat a fve year madatory sentence on a Robery and Possesion With Intent case. And was great in getting evidence surpressed not only in county court but supierior court as well. He is on top of all proper paper work and... Motion's from preliminary to Trial. No matter how big the case i wouldnt recomend anybody else but Michael Parlow. And he will be my defense anytime i have legal trouble's

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.
