Appeal Won – All Thanks to Michael Ufferman Law Firm!

Working with the Michael Ufferman Law Firm was the best decision we could have made for our criminal appeal. His staff were wonderful - always professional, kind and answered our myriad questions. Michael combined deep legal expertise with genuine care, guiding us through every step and making a comp...lex process feel manageable. His written briefs were powerful, his courtroom advocacy was compelling, and his dedication never wavered. Thanks to his skill and commitment, we won our appeal—and we are forever grateful. Michael Ufferman is truly one of the top attorneys in his field and should be your first choice when seeking an appellate lawyer!

Highly recommended

With Mr Ufferman’s legal representation, my daughter’s life sentence went to a 30 year sentence on one appeal and then to a 25 year sentence on another appeal. I cannot say enough good things about our experience dealing with Mr Ufferman. He is extremely knowledgeable, has a good repor with judges an...d prosecutors and was always upfront and forthcoming with us regarding my daughter’s case. I highly recommend him!

Marion Michael O'Steen - Review of Attorney Michael Ufferman

I don’t even know where to start when it comes to thanking Michael Ufferman. Hiring him was the best decision I ever made during the toughest chapter of my life. When I was facing the weight of my conviction, I felt lost and hopeless, but Michael gave me something I hadn’t felt in a long time—hope. F...rom our first meeting, he listened to me like I was family, not just another case. He took the time to really get what I was going through and explained everything in a way that made sense, no matter how complicated the legal stuff got. Michael’s brilliance as an appellate attorney showed in every step of my appeal. He fought for me with a kind of passion and determination that’s hard to put into words. Thanks to his hard work and incredible knowledge, he got my conviction overturned in the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. I still get emotional thinking about that moment—it gave me my life back. He wasn’t just my lawyer; he was my lifeline, always there to answer questions and keep me grounded. What sets Michael apart isn’t just that he’s a top-notch lawyer (though he absolutely is—board-certified and all!). It’s his heart. He treated me with so much kindness and respect, like my future mattered to him personally. If you’re looking for someone to fight for you and truly care, Michael Ufferman is your guy. I owe him everything, and I’ll never stop recommending him. Five stars don’t feel like enough!

Thank you!

Most knowledgeable attorney I have come across during this very stressful ordeal. Somehow, when all hope was lost, Mr. Ufferman managed to get my sentence reduced following several unsuccessful appeals by other attorneys. I can now return to my life much sooner and put this tragic mess behind me. He ...has earned my thanks and respect, and most importantly my trust. He and his staff were extremely attentive, even when my family and I became borderline annoying. Thank you, Michael and thank you Audra. For everything.

The 1%

The old joke goes, "99% of Attorneys make the other 1% look BAD!" Well, Michael Ufferman is absolutely in that "1%". My name is Jeremy Brown and I retained Michael Ufferman and his firm to represent me in my appeal of a false Federal Conviction. Having worked with numerous other attorneys over the co...urse of 19 months, I had been disappointed at nearly every turn, but working with Michael and his staff was a breath of fresh air. Michael gave me the sense that, not only did he care about the outcome of my appeal, but that he actually cared about me personally. Our meetings were open discussions about not just the letter of the law, but also legal theories, philosophy and intent, as a team, not an "I'm an attorney and this is the way it is" ego session. Michael's knowledge, professionalism and ability to explain complex legal scenarios meant the world to me and provided a level of comfort and confidence that's priceless when your waiting has to take place in a jail cell. But as important as all that was, nothing was more important than the fact that WE WON and I write this review as a FREE MAN! If I could, I'd give him 50 stars! My gratitude for Michael Ufferman and his Team can never be captured in words. He easily gets my highest recommendation and deepest respect. Thank you Michael and Team!
