Positive Hard Working Lawyer!
Michael was an amazing lawyer! He got down to business and worked hard for me since day one of him taking my case. He kept me updated on everything about the case, he would always answer my calls and questions in a timely manner. If it wasn't for Michael, I would have been very stressed about my case...
Hi Amanda. Thank you for both your kind words and positive review. Your case was interesting because it involved a great deal of strategy. There were legal issues ("stand your ground" / self-defense), factual issues (your alleged victim provably unlawfully seeking compensation for a pre-existing medical condition) and practical issues (you having been a tourist when you were unfortunately arrested in FL and being out of State while I prepared your defense). Please know that your constant availability and meaningful participation, coupled with your flying down and preparing for trial testimony, were significant factors in getting the State to decide to dismiss their (bogus) case against you at the 11th hour. Congratulations on your victory. I am happy to have been able to have helped you achieve justice.

DUI Case
Life changes literally in seconds. Here I was on my way home from a business dinner one early evening when I came across a DUI check point. My lane was randomly picked. I was asked where did I come from and if I had drank any alcohol. I replied, a business dinner and I had a glass of wine. Well, t...
Thank you very much for your positive review. Not that I do not laud my experience and knowledge, but I do take particular pride in being a lawyer who "will always get back to you as quickly as possible to answer your questions and/or concerns" and who will "return your phone calls timely, respond to a text and or e-mail". Communication (honest communication) is one of the keys to any successful relationship, and attorney-client is no different than any other. So no, I will not "not sugar coat your situation" (or, as I like to say, "I won't blow sunshine up your skirt / pant leg")... What I will do is take a comprehensive look at the facts and the circumstances of the case, then apply my experience and the law to lay out the options as I see them, help you to choose a reasonable litigation objective and then make every reasonable effort at securing a dismissal, suppression of evidence or an acquittal by any possible factual, legal, procedural or substantive means or mechanism. Thank you again for your kind review and for your heartfelt recommendation of my services,

Helpful and best
Was very helpful
Awesome. Thank you very much! I have no idea who you are or what I might have done to have been helpful enough for you to have taken the time and to have expended the effort at authoring a review for the world to see but I am much obliged. I speak to a lot of folks in writing on AVVO, through my website (www.criminallaw.miami), on Twitter (@Sharky910) through my Criminal Defense, DUI & BUI blog (habercriminallaw.blogspot.com) on Facebook (HaberPA) and on my YouTube Channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/michaelhaberlaw), the vast majority of which I never actually meet, much less represent, so I'm going to chalk this Client Review (#110... ) up to Karma! Thank you again!

Worked Hard for me
Mr. Haber worked so hard that I got the best results, I messed up but he helped me so much, I am so thankful for all his hard work, i got the best possible out come.
Thank you Anonymous. I appreciate the props. I wish that you would have offered just enough information for me to have known who you are and so that I could have addressed your case (without revealing anything about your identity). Still, I am grateful for your taking the time to acknowledge my "hard work" and effort at achieving your "best possible" outcome. My primary objective in all cases is the client's complete satisfaction with my legal services, and this only happens though hard work, open lines of communication, keeping the client fully informed, encouraging participation (to the extent that a given client wishes) and then going full bore at the government in an effort to achieve the agreed litigation objective. Given this, and although I don't know who you are or what case yours was, the fact that we did achieve your goal necessarily means that I also achieved mine. So, congratulations and thank you again!

An Amazing Lawyer
Michael Haber did a great job for me. I had never been arrested before until a recent DUI. I was pulled over and did not blow. He was very helpful and suggested the Advocate Program (which was a great option for me due to the fact that in my line of work I do need to drive to appointments). Michae...
Thank you very much for the props and for your recommendation Jorge. In all honesty your case was much more difficult for you than it was for me. After evaluating and fully vetting all of the evidence in your case (police reports, dash cam video, DUI paperwork, arresting officer's personnel file, etc.) I merely laid out the options; at that point it was you who had a tough choice to make (one with clear equities on both sides). On the one hand you had the option of completing DUI-diversion (jumping through a series of hoops designed to allow you to earn and guarantee a dismissal of your DUI) and on the other hand you had a very good trial case from a defense perspective (no breath, reasonable performance on FST's and all based upon a routine speeding stop). The choice was one of pride, willingness to run risk (a permanent criminal conviction and jail time) and cost (financial, emotional and physical), and it all boiled down to whether or not you were willing to gamble your liberty and record. I know that the choice to enter into diversion was a tough call for you (and it was entirely your call), but now, in the end, you are on the road to having your arrest record sealed, your DUI was dismissed and you are 100% free. ¡Felicitaciones!
"I endorse this lawyer. I first met Mike about 20 years ago when I was a Special Prosecutor in the Narcotics Unit at the Miami Dade State Attorney's Office. He was and still is a hard working and knowledgable attorney, who fought for his client then and still does today. He has always been honest, fair and ethical. He is always fighting to achieve the best possible results for his clients. When I left the Miami Dade State Attorney's Office to start my private practice, I maintained my relationship with him and he and I would consult each other on some of our individual cases. He is a wealth of information and our friendship has grown over the years. Currently we co-host a podcast on Mondays at 2p.m. on Miami's Community Newspapers on Facebook Live titled "At Your Service with Haber and Martinez.""
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Haber in my opinion is an attorney that is truly for the people. I have followed him for a few years now, and remain inestimably impressed with both the amount of knowledge he has in criminal law and also the amount of knowledge he gives to anyone in need of legal guidance. Attorney Haber has a way of breaking down complex legal concepts into very understandable pieces that can be easily digested by someone not so familiar with legal phrases and wording. To have the career he has and the number of years he has dedicated to this craft and still be willing to help out the community at large at a second's notice is what I feel makes him a continual asset and resource to both the legal community and the state of Florida."
"I endorse Mike Haber. He is a knowledgeable, zealous attorney with decades of experience helping his clients. His answers on this platform showcase his wealth and breadth of legal knowledge, as well as his direct and sound advice. Although we practice in different areas of the state, I have spoken to Mike at length about his practice. After having done so, I am confident that Mike is a lawyer you want on your side in the courtroom. When hiring a lawyer, be sure that lawyer has the experience, knowledge, and skills necessary to effectively defend your case. If you are worried about a crime, know that Mike is one of those lawyers."
"I strongly endorse this lawyer. Mr. Haber is a brilliant legal mind and respected by his peers. I have had the pleasure of co-answering many legal questions on the Avvo platform and Mr. Haber always has an insightful answer to share. I would not hesitate to count on Mr. Haber!"
"I have consistently seen Michael providing detailed and thoughtful responses to the many questions that pop-up in the Q&A section on Avvo. I have no doubt that he provides his clients with the same great legal advice."
"Simply put, Attorney Haber knows criminal defense. He is familiar with criminal statutes, the case law and criminal procedure. But what sets Attorney Haber apart is his mastery of strategy. Make no mistake, you are in excellent hands with Attorney Haber defending you. I fully recommend him."
"It has been my pleasure to work with Mr. Haber in the Avvo forums answering legal questions. Mr. Haber always has a grasp for the client's needs and his vast knowledge and experience lend to his ability to offer sound legal advice. After reviewing his astute legal guides, I was even further impressed. It is my pleasure to endorse this lawyer."
"A shark. I'd recommend Mr Haber to my family if they needed criminal defense, without a doubt. Highly experienced and well recommended."
"Mr. Haber is a skilled and experienced lawyer whose legal expertise is displayed through every answer he has written on Avvo and through the awards he has earned for his legal work. The reviews he has received reveal his dedication to applying his talents to the betterment of the lives of his clients. He is an asset to our profession, and it is my pleasure to endorse him. If either myself or any family member were arrested, the first call I would make would be to Michael."
"Attorney Haber and I met when I noticed that there was one attorney on Avvo that always answered the criminal law questions that come out first. I have reviewed hundreds of analyses by attorney Haber from injunctions to bond issues, and everything in-between. There is no attorney with a better conceptual understanding of the law and promptness in its truest form."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Haber possesses the knowledge, expertise and dedication to help his client's navigate through the criminal justice system."
"Mr. Haber is an incredibly skilled criminal defense attorney. I am constantly amazed at the depth and breadth of his criminal defense knowledge. One needs to look no further than his Avvo guides and YouTube info videos to see that Mr. Haber is able to boil complex legal issues into terms that non-attorneys can understand. This rare and important skill allows Mr. Haber to more effectively communicate with juries to deliver favorable results for his clients. If I, or someone I cared about, was ever in trouble in the Dade County area, I would not hesitate to seek out Mr. Haber for representation."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is extremely knowledgeable about all areas of criminal defense. When other attorneys do not know how to resolve an issue, Mr. Haber always does . His clients love his aggressive demeanor that surely puts the Assistant State Attorneys he works with at a disadvantage. This area of law is constantly changing and you can bet Mr. Haber keeps up with all of the changes. I can't think of another lawyer I would recommend for criminal defense in Florida."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Haber has shown consistent mastery of criminal defense topics and is an asset to the community."
"Mr. Haber is always willing to provide advice to both lawyer and clients alike. His answers are straightforward and pragmatic. Since I don't practice in the Miami area, Michael is an attorney that I would refer clients to without hesitation. I strongly endorse him."
"I endorse this lawyer. Extremely knowledgeable and generous with his free advice to the community. I look forward to reading his responses to community questions. Never disappointed."
