A top-notch, knowleable attorney with a very caring, compassionate and personalized touch . . .

Mr. Michael L. Boswell is a top-notch, knowledgeable attorney with a very caring, compassionate and personalized touch, which is why I highly recommend him. There is no way that I will ever be able to thank or repay Mr. Boswell for his kind and much needed legal advice and assistance. He could see th...at I was very distraught and anxious over a very personal family legal matter, which required the legal expertise of an attorney who could understand and personally relate to my situation. Mr. Boswell was that attorney. He is a very kindhearted, legal professional, who connects with his clients, who connected with me on a very personal level. Though now retired, I used to work with numerous, various attorneys on a weekly basis for about two decades, who either worked for the county or the state, or who were in private practice. My point being, I am well familiar with attorneys. Of the hundreds of attorneys that I worked with in that two decade time span, Mr. Boswell is one of the top three attorneys that I have had the pleasure to work with and who I hold in the highest regard. Take my advice. If you need an attorney who cares, who understands and who you want to work with you on a personal level, Mr. Boswell is the attorney that you need to see. Thank-you, Mr. Boswell! I will never be able to thank you or repay you for your much needed legal advice and assistance.

Integrity - you either have it or you don't

I have months' of email history showing how unresponsive Michael Boswell is on important matters. Likewise, he has exhibited a bad habit of not returning his voicemails... of dragging his feet on time-sensitive issues. In email he has said he would do something, then never does it and never explain...s or answers why.

This client had a valid complaint, as the Paralegal working on his case (who is no longer with us) was hiding information. Once this was discovered, she was let go and his case bankruptcy was completed and closed. We took full responsibility for the delay and absorbed any costs relating to such.

An Exceptional Attorney Who Consistently Goes Above & Beyond

Michael Boswell is representing our disabled child in a Special Education case. He's a very experienced attorney, immensely knowledgeable, and extremely ethical. This is a man who has strong committed principles (and was definitely the answer to our prayers) combined with a relentless drive to vigoro...usly protect the rights of children with special needs. He is always responsive (allowing - obviously - for his other responsibilities including frequent court appearances) to my often lengthy emails and he has kept us informed every step of the way. I am completely confident that we (and especially our child) are in safe, dedicated, capable hands. Kids with special needs are particularly vulnerable so having such an effective force for good safeguarding our son' rights is incredibly reassuring and we would highly recommend Michael Boswell without hesitation.

An Individual Dedicated to Justice

Michael Boswell has represented me in a case which has gone on for almost seven years. I am a little guy fighting a massive legal machine which has caused damage to me and hundreds of individuals. He has never faltered from continuing my representation where it has far exceeded my capability to s...tand my ground on my own. His staff is equally as dedicated. And while he is not always in a position to return calls immediately, his assistants assigned to individual cases are responsive to repeated inquiries and have kept me informed.

Michael Boswell and staff have been great with helping me so far !

Michael Boswell and staff have been great with helping me so far !I talked with 6 other lawyers before a neighbor told me about Michael L Boswell. He told me how he helped with his legal problems. Neighbor said he would use him again and was very happy with work they did. I called and Mr.Boswell was ...lawyer number 7 I talked with. The other 6 lawyers were out to scam me or not very smart! You will be happy with Mr Boswell!
