DO NOT HIRE!

Run Away From this Guy! See Michael Naughtons Suspension. Mr. Naughton took our money! He represents with out knowing the laws. I would highly recommend seeking another attorney. If you are currently using Mr. Naughton PLEASE FIND ANOTHER ATTORNEY! He is a SCAM!

Can’t thank him enough!

I’m so great full with Mr. Naughton. He didn’t give up on my case. He went far and beyond to follow trough. Every time I felt like this was a lost cost, due to it being a case where the other party lived in Another country. He was always reassuring. To him this case was a piece of cake. At my lowest ...point. I will never forget his words. “I will do what ever it takes to get you divorced and get what you deserve.” And I definitely did. I got everything. I can’t thank him enough! I Definitely recommend 100%

Always had my best interest in mind!

Michael is an amazing human being. He truly cares for his client and understands the sense of urgency that it takes when dealing with some of life's difficult issues. I hired him for both a divorce and as an elder care attorney. In both cases he explained to me different routes we could go, but at th...e same time letting me know about different consequences that could happen. I never felt uninformed but instead confident because I knew he had my back. In my elder care case dealing with protecting my family's assets, Michael again explained every step to me. He has been practicing law for 30+ years and I will continue to use Michael as needed. He is truly a great man!

This man has completely changed my life. First he cleaned some youngsters record so I could become a Medic. And then he got me custody of my daughter and then we adopted her sister.
