Stop looking i've found the BEST!
Micheal Doyle is an Honest Lawyer, not too many of those left, everything he did was in my best interest. The advise he had given me was to help me and no one else. "The Peoples' Lawyer" I would recommend him to anyone.

An attorney worth our money
Mr. Doyle handled my brother's criminal case about a year ago. He came highly recommended and with reason. We found that not only was he knowledgable but pleasant as well. My family was definitely happy with the outcome thanks to Mr. Doyle's hard work.
