We hired Michael to help us with a very important law suit against a big company when many other attorneys refused to help us. Michael helped us for over 2.5 years and successfully negotiated a settlement that we are very happy with. Not only did he get us the settlement we were happy with, he helped... us throughout the process with dealing with creditors that were coming after us for bills we ultimately weren't responsible for paying. It was a very emotional situation and he was very understanding throughout the process, very sympathetic to our feelings, and backed us up 100%. We would highly recommend Michael Santa Barbara.
