Excellent

I am so happy to have Mr. Garagozlo represent my DUI case. Usually, I am not too fond of wiring reviews. However, I know this is one review I need to write to help others in my situation. Mr. Garagozlo has an impeccable understanding of the law, including immigration. I had a pleasant experience wi...th the way he handled my case. I was so afraid that my case would impact my ongoing immigration case. However, Mr. Garagozlo put me at ease by contacting and speaking to my immigration lawyer about my case. He was very mindful of my immigration case and did his best to provide me with the best outcome that would not affect my immigration case. I found Mr. Garagozlo to be very meticulous, knowledgeable, and caring. He worked diligently on my case, and I was thrilled with the outcome of my case. The case was dismissed in court. I highly recommend Mr. Garagozlo to anyone who needs the best legal guidance.

Best Lawyer

I moved to Maryland from Detroit and I didn’t know anyone I caught some serious driving charges facing some serious time including Oui, I was scared outta my mind and Mr. Garagozlo helped me threw all my questions and worries he responded threw all my calls and emails and to top it off he got my seri...ous charges dismissed. I have major trust issues including the law and I highly recommend Mr.Garagozlo.

He’s a must hire not 5 stars at least 10 stars if it was possible !!!

Definitely recommend hiring Micheal! He’s the real deal! He doesn’t sugar coat anything to you he’s always straight up and gives you the best advice moving forward in your case ! I was facing my 2nd dui with serious jail time and he gave me the best possible outcome I could get . He exceeded my ex...pectations as a lawyer because I felt like when he defended me he went above and beyond. If I could give him more then 5 stars I would ! Anyone reading this I’m telling you do not hesitate he’s the best lawyer not only for Montgomery county but probably in the state of maryland

Great Lawyer

I knew from meeting Mike the first time that he was a good guy. Made me feel at ease and tried to relieve my anxiety by reassuring me how to get through this DUI process. He told me the steps that I needed to do in order to ensure a successful outcome. Very helpful!

Great Advice

I called Michael with a question regarding my pending DWI case in Virginia and he was so gracious with his time and response. I can tell that he's very knowledgeable and good at his craft.
