Good Lawyer

I hired Michael Coyle after having another attorney screw up my case. You know what other attorneys do, they focus on money and delays. Well Mr. Coyle put air back into my case lungs and got me not only a favorable result, but something you would almost never see from the courts, JUSTICE. I feel g...ood and would recommend Mr. Coyle.

Lawyer

I hired Mike as my lawyer , he was all about " show me the money " before he was paid he responded fast , once paid he took for ever to respond to emails or return phone calls , he truly is all about him being paid and really doesn't care once he is paid . Do not hire him

Available and Experienced

Mike took the time to see me outside regular working hours in order to accommodate my schedule as much as possible and listened to my individual situation to provide valid and objective advice. Brittany made sure that all my forms were correct, contacting me to explain where changes were required an...d both took the time to make sure I was comfortable with the information before submission. Mike showed the depth of his experience at every stage and made sure I was comfortable and understood everything that was going on.

Attorney that works with diligence to meet client's needs

Attorney Coyle is an extremely competent lawyer. I retained Mr. Coyle regarding my dispute with a bank. Mr. Coyle’s legal representation and guidance are excellent. Mr. Coyle explained, the law, available options and risks pertinent to my situation. Mr. Coyle listened to me instead of taking a cookie...-cutter/one size fits all approach and made suggestions. I highly recommend Attorney Coyle’s legal services.

Never performed Legal Service

Michael Coyle never filed my bankruptcy case in the alloted time frame. I hired him in January of 2016 and he requested immediately $2,500 all at once. I brought him the $2,500 in a few days. In March 2016 after the court approved foreclosure sale. I told him again to file bankruptcy case. He did not... do so. I had met with him to ask him to file bankruptcy case, but to no avail. Two months later in May he still refused to file bankruptcy case even after I told him the mortgage servicer had trespassed onto my property leaving a flyer on door "Relocation Assistance." He still didn't file bankruptcy case and mortgage servicer begins running ads for my home for an auction sale in May. By June he still had not filed my bankruptcy case. Mr. Coyle has poor communication skills, meaning he does not return clients calls, texts or emails. He allows emotion to get in way of performing his legal duties.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy lawyer | Sep 17

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mike is a very good lawyer. What separates Mike from many bankruptcy lawyers is a willingness to litigate his cases. The simple fact is that most bankruptcy lawyers process paperwork for their clients in a robotic fashion. Mike is different. He thinks about his cases from a litigator's point of view and then finds the appropriate bankruptcy remedy. I absolutely recommend Mike to anyone that needs bankruptcy help."
