Horrible Criminal Trial Attorney

Micheal Kelley, Esq. Is a horrific criminal trial attorney. His “bed side” manner in communication with his clients are non-existing to say the least. He constantly lies and Sugar costs information to his client. He puts on a fantastic show for his closing arguments. However, his ability to cross exa...mine, object to the states evidence/witnesses or supply any beneficial evidence on the behalf of his client is a big fat ZERO on a scale of 1-10. DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN!!

Great defense!

Great defense attorney here. I couldn't ask for more. While I got myself into the situation he helped me navigate the confusing process. I recommend him.

Great Criminal Lawyer

Mr. Kelley helped me with my case. I was very lucky he took my case and he got right to work. It was not a short process but he explained that the system moves at it's own pace and I was patient. I am very happy with how it turned out even though I had fines to pay and stuff but he got me a great... ending and I'm lucky. He's great.

Very experienced criminal attorney

I would not have had the result in my case that I got without the help of Mike Kelley. While I did qualify for the public defender I would have been needled into a settlement. Instead I had the experienced attorney needed to fight for my right and go to trial if necessary. Fair treatment is a...ll I wanted and that is what Mr. Kelley got me - my obligation has been satisfied and now I am moving on along a better path. Call Mr. Kelley, don't use those public defenders and be another number in the giant stack of files on their desk.
