CASE DISMISSED

I was pulled over by a state cop while i was traveling on route i95 north. The copped pulled me over saying that i was following too closely and as he approached my car he says he smells a strong odor of marijuana. He asked me to get out the car, asked me a series of questions until i told him there ...were drugs in the car. He arrested me and charged me with several charges. I was charged with possession of a controlled substance in the intent to deliver, manufacturing drugs, drug paraphernalia and so on. While i was in the bucks county jail i over heard a gentleman talking about Mr Parlow and how Mr Parlow is currently the attorney on his case. I asked him was Michael Parlow a good lawyer and he said yes. He also told me about a friend of his that had charges dropped after Mr Parlow represented him on a major drug case. Once i was bailed out i looked on google to find Mr Parlow, called his office and set up an appointment. The next day i was in his office meeting him in person and we started discussing my case and what are the steps we need to move forward. Once he felt like i had a good chance of winning my case we then talked about how much it would be for him to represent me. He kept me informed, he made sure i understood everything that can happen, he stayed in touch with me though the whole case, from the preliminary hearing all the way to trial. He allowed me to make my own decisions but he also made me feel like he was fighting this case as is he was the defendant, and that there let me know i could trust him. When i had a chance to take the deal he looked at me with confidence and said i know i can win this. He went far and wide to get the dash cam video from the police officer. He gathered research from similar cases. He did everything he was supposed to do in order to let it be known that even though i did have illegal drugs on me, i was wrongfully stopped by that officer. I never felt left out or in the dark about anything because he made sure he mailed me every piece of paperwork pertaining my case,he made sure i understood everything in the paperwork and made sure we had meetings before and after every court date just to make sure i was OK and understand what was about to happen next. Once he seen from watching the video repeatedly that i was wrongfully stopped he knew there was no case against me so he filed he motions and got my charges dropped. CASE DISMISSED Thank You Mr Parlow

Aug . 9 2016 Daniel Medina Vs Common Wealth Of Pa

Yesterday was like my 10th court case in front of my 5th judge , which I been going through for the last 2 years . I started off with 3 felonies & a couple misdemeanors. Aggervated assault & a gun charge just to name a few . The DA offered me a 18 Month deal if I plead guilty , we obviously declined... & mike took it from there . Over the next 2 years my case would continuously be dismissed , over and over again , each court case my charges were getting smaller & smaller . In November 2014 I was looking at a good amount of Time in jail , as of yesterday August 9 2016 I am officially charge free , my last Court case I had no felonies on the docket anymore & I was just fighting a small marijuana charge . Michael was also able to get that dismissed for what it seems the be the last time. DA's & the common wealth of Pennsylvania are nothing to play with , If it wasn't for Mr. Parlow I probably be sitting in jail right now . #BestinPA

A few months ago my fiancé got pulled over in someone elses car the police had found some pot that did not belong to him.. They let him go, couple months later we recieved a letter a mail for him to go to court. We were so worried about what was going to happen and if he was going to get locked up du...e to the fact that he was probation so we hired a Michael! The day of, he told us not to worry that he got it. We had a lot going on at the time, financially. He understood all of us. I would really recommend any one to him! He is lawyer you could definitely count on! Thank you so much for helping us Micheal!

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.

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.
