Michael M Garagozlo

Michael Garagozlo represented me in a couple of sticky situations over 20 years ago when I got in trouble for some fairly serious youthful indiscretions. He did an excellent job and struck deals with the judge to keep a conviction off my record. Today, over 20 years later, I contacted him to obta...in some information about these cases and he responded quickly and professionally, providing what amounted to additional legal advice at no additional charge. This is a sign of someone who truly cares about his clients! Highly recommended!

I received my first (and last) DUI in MD a few months ago. I researched lawyers online and setup a few appointments. Mike was my first interview. I was very nervous and afraid about the entire process and possible outcome. Mike explained the whole process, made me feel at ease, and explained h...is fixed price fees. Based on the meeting, I hired him on the spot. He was very up front with me and did not promise me I would be completely absolved. Over the next few months, Mike guided me through the whole process with the MVA and the Courts. He kept me in the loop of where we were and was very respnsive to my questions. You could tell Mike has been doing this for a long time since he knew almost all of the people involved in my case. I received the favorable outcome he thought I would at both the MVA hearing and District Court. Others at court today with similar charges did not receive as favorable outcome and I attribute that to Mike's expertise and knowledge of the process. I highly recommend Mike if you find yourself in a similar situation.

Michael represented me in my first (and only) offense- a DUI. From the beginning, he was a calming force and was very reassuring and informative during our first contact over then phone, and then later in his office. Before signing a contract, Mike even gave very thorough legal advice and made sure t...hat I clearly understood what was to come. I decided that I wanted him to represent me in that same setting. Mike gave me clear instructions and wisdom on what to get done prior to my court date. He advised that if I completed certain steps, that I would be positioning myself for a more favorable outcome. Leading up to court, he was very responsive and answered emails very promptly. The day of my hearing, Michael advised me again prior to entering the court room. He reassured me again and coached me regarding my poise and responses before the judge. It was clear that he had done his part. I got an even better outcome than I expected that day. I am sincerely grateful to Michael and never once regretted my decision to have him represent me. It was certainly time and money well spent. Even further, I appreciate that he is a down-to-earth individual, who never seemed to judge me or look down on my me because of my irresponsible decision. He encouraged me to look forward and change my decisions for the better in the future. Looking back, I can see that he is a reputable attorney in Montgomery County, and has established a rapport with judges and other legal personnel within. Words alone cannot convey my gratitude for his professionalism and thorough work. Michael is definitely the right attorney to represent your case!

Mr. Garagozlo was very understanding and put me at ease from the consultation all the way to the trial. He gave me a plan of action to work on before the court date and he was very reassuring the whole time which relieved a lot of my stress i had over my serious DUI charge and other offenses related... to the charge. He kept in contact and checked on me frequently and answered all of my questions the whole time. He worked tirelessly to have the best possible outcome for me and i could not be more happy with the outcome. If you are looking for representation from an excellent, personable and caring Attorney please contact Mr. Garagozlo and you won't regret it. Thanks to him, i am moving on with a happy outcome from a very stressful period of my life.

Michael Garagozlo was critical in my DUI case. Terrible incident took place and thanks to his brilliance, preparedness, and ambition I got an outcome I couldn't be happier with. The result wasn't just favorable, his outstanding work resulted in what feels like a miracle. Michael was comforting and kn...owledgeable during the entire process, but most of all he was available at all times with prompt emails, texts, calls, etc that went above and beyond anything I could've asked for. I'll forever be grateful to have had him as an attorney and this entire experience has grown me into a better man. For more specifics: I got a DUI double the legal limit with many other traffic infractions. Michael returned my call immediately and invited me for a consultation. I was immediately impressed with his confidence, experience, and comfort and agreed to hire him. He gave me advice and pushed me to be proactive about getting the most favorable outcome available. He urged me to get an interlock device installed on my car before court and had a discount for the installation, helped me enroll in education classes to get them done before a judge would issue it, and pushed me to complete a substantial amount of community service so when the hearing rolled around the judge would see I've already completed most of what would be court ordered and could enter an incredibly favorable plea. He was able to get me a PBJ on the DUI with minimal probation requirements, freedom to travel, no supervision, only 1 point from another traffic offense, and a mere ~$250 fine with all the other charges null pros.
