Outstanding Legal Advocacy: 5 Stars for Michael Haber!
Michael Haber is a true gem in the realm of criminal defense attorneys. From the moment my husband enlisted his services, Mr. Haber exhibited an unparalleled level of strategic prowess and dedication to our case. Throughout the entire legal process, Mr. Haber's responsible and reliable nature shon...
Dear Anonymous, Before I say anything further (including expressing my gratitude for your kind Client Review, #HaberPA's 241st on AVVO) I must recognize your exceptional writing skills (either that or thank Chat GPT as, while I appreciate each & every Client Review, this one was particularly delightful for me to have read). That said (& hoping that your Hubby will author his own review, to which I will reply & address the specifics of his case, but only if he also does so anonymously) I'm going to react to your observations by paragraph. "Michael Haber is a true gem in the realm of criminal defense attorneys. From the moment my husband enlisted his services, Mr. Haber exhibited an unparalleled level of strategic prowess and dedication to our case." Insert blushing face emoji here. At #HaberPA we strive to stand out by providing "boutique" (i.e. "a small company that offers highly specialized services or products") services. As such we effort at coming to know as much about our Client as we do about our profession (to wit: Criminal Defense Litigation). "Throughout the entire legal process, Mr. Haber's responsible and reliable nature shone brightly. He meticulously planned each step of our defense strategy, leaving no stone unturned in his pursuit of justice. His attention to detail and unwavering commitment to our case instilled a sense of confidence and reassurance in us during what was undoubtedly a challenging time." This paragraph has much to unpack but my topline thoughts are that it's easy to be interested at the outset, but remaining equally concerned & attentive through a case's resolution is part of what makes #HaberPA a boutique law firm, differentiating us from many others who are all about "the pay day" & who become far less concerned after the Client's check has cleared. I'll also add that Lee Child's character Jack Reacher is spot-on each time that he says "details matter", as they do, especially in Criminal Cases. "What truly sets Mr. Haber apart is his ability to exceed all expectations. Not only did he deliver on his promises, but he also surpassed them with his exceptional courtroom performance and legal expertise. His strategic maneuvers and quick thinking were instrumental in securing a favorable outcome for my husband." I don't have ESP, a crystal ball, Tarot cards, an Ouija board or any other way to guarantee what will happen, but after 32+ years I can & do foresee the reasonable probabilities in each case, strategically wield & manipulate the Rules of Criminal Procedure & Evidence & am not above employing guile & taking advantage of loopholes & technicalities which inure to my client's benefit (as "we're in it to win it"). "Beyond his remarkable legal acumen, Mr. Haber demonstrated genuine care and empathy towards our family. He took the time to listen to our concerns, providing both legal counsel and emotional support throughout the entirety of our case. His genuine compassion and dedication to our well-being were truly commendable." Of this I am most proud. I recently replied in part to prior Client's kind review stating: "A large portion of #HaberPA's mantra is to "take a 'Global Approach' to the Client & the case & come to understand the Client & her/his situation", & we stand by that blueprint in each & every case." I care (admittedly in some cases & for some clients more than others), always have regard for & some degree of altruism for my clients, but when it's recognized by the Client (as here) it's heartwarming. "Thanks to Michael Haber's outstanding representation, my husband received the justice he deserved. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate criminal defense attorney. If you're searching for legal advocacy that goes above and beyond, look no further than Michael Haber. Five stars without hesitation!" All I will say to this is "thank you" once again, both for you kind words & exceptionally moving Client Review. Gratefully, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA

Client
You were referred to me by a trusted friend/lawyer who doesn't typically handle BUI cases. You promptly met with me at my convenience in my home; you explained in detail the process and protocol, as well as the possibilities and probabilities. You assessed my case, my interests, and then we establish...
Dear Client, Thank you for your very succinct, bullet-point styled Client Review (#HaberPA's 239th on AVVO) hitting many points of interest to prospective clients. As you've not identified yourself (& I know who you are) I'll share a something about the facts, circumstances & resolution of your case with the folks (so they'll understand "the why" of your praise). You were stopped at dusk for "planing" in a Manatee Zone (excessive speed) while captaining a vessel (your father's boat). After running you around the boat like a marionette (a tactic which Marine Police employ as de facto "Field Sobriety Tests" / FSTS), & not withstanding your appropriate compliance with most everything (the 2 things that you did "wrong" were not having any ID on the vessel & not having your FFWWC "Boating Safety Education Identification Card", both of which you should have had onboard) because they claimed to have smelled alcohol on your breath you were directed to board the FWC vessel to take marine sobriety exams. You agreed to take them (aside alert: be it on land or sea, in Florida FSTs are 100% voluntary, you do NOT have to take them &, unlike refusing a breath test your Driver License is NOT effected by your refusal to take FSTs - that said, & also unlike breath, where the Cops must advise you of the consequences of a refusal, they don't have to with FSTs & thus they almost never will) &, not surprisingly for anyone who's been boating all day, your performance was adjudged to have been "below standards", after which you were formally arrested for BUI (Boating Under the Influence / DUI on the water). When you arrived at the station you wisely refused breath & invoked Miranda. Without a BAC printout the State's theory of the case had to be "impairment of your normal faculties" & as a consequence of your refusal to blow (just like in a DUI) they'd be entitled to both a rebuttable presumption of impairment & to argue "consciousness of guilt" (i.e. the reason you didn't blow is as you knew that if you did then your BAC would've been >.08). That said I promptly met with you & your parents at your home, debriefed you, vetted your version of events against the Probable Cause Affidavit, explained the charge, the State's burden of proof, the protocol moving forward, the various options available to you & the most critical thing, to wit: That the BWC would tell the tale sans passion or prejudice, & what we see and hear should guide our trajectory. That proved true as within a few weeks we watched crystal clear video & audio which captured everything from FWC lighting you up to your "perp-walk" into the Jail, after which the toughest thing about your case was deciding what to do after analyzing the BWC footage as, while we couldn't refute the alleged odor of alcohol, if you were impaired then, not withstanding the FSTs (which I myself couldn't've aced on land & stone cold sober), it wasn't patent (i.e. you were responsive, respectful, appropriate & not visibly impaired), thus leaving us with a dilemma. With no viable Motion to Dismiss (the "stop" was lawful, the requisite "reasonable suspicion" for a BUI investigation existed & once you refused breath you were lawfully arrested) we had to decide whether to take our chances in a Trial or negotiate a plea. Fortunately we had a reasonable Prosecutor who agreed to offer you a "Deferred Prosecution" agreement (de facto "Diversion") & you chose to take that safe path, whereby in 9 months time & after jumping through a few proverbial hoops you'll earn a dismissal. The choice was yours to make & while it was torture for me (as your case screamed "Reasonable Doubt" & I'd've loved to have taken it to Trial) I expect that you made the right decision (for you - & that's what matters). I was honored to have been referred to you by another lawyer, for the trust placed in me by you & your family & I look forward to you case being dismissed in short order. Thank you again for your kind words. Fondly, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA

Expungement
Mr. Haber is very professional and always on top with everything. I knew I could have relied on him with multiple cases. Very great gentlemen and always on point with everything he does. I am very thankful for everything he has done, I highly recommend hiring Mr. Haber with any legal issues.
“Dear Anonymous, Thank you so very much for your kind words (in the form of #HaberPA's 237th Client Review on AVVO). #HaberPA loves taglines and over the years we have conjured and pushed many. For example, "#UPx2" is a modified acronym that stands for "Shut-Up and Lawyer-Up" and is a quick and easy way to remember both to and how to invoke your 5th Amendment Right to Remain Silent and your 6th Amendment Right to Counsel. "The Three Wrongs", is a reference to being in "the wrong place at the wrong time and coming into contact with the wrong cop", the point of which is to suggest that you have some degree of control over both where and with whom you choose to go / to be but there remains a variable ("the wrong cop") over which you have no control and which can quickly ruin your day (in any event there's no denying that the convergence of these "three wrongs" definitely will not make a right). "The Three Ms" refer to "Motion" (in the year 1686 Sir Isaac Newton's masterpiece, the "Principia Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis", was published postulating his Three Laws of Motion, the 3rd of which is that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction"), "Merton" (Professor Robert K. Merton coined the "Law of Unintended Consequences", which holds that while you may act intending "X" result, unanticipated or unforeseen outcomes can and do happen, and when they do, despite your lack of intent you remain accountable) and "Murphy" (in 1949, while working at Edwards Air Force Base on United States Air Force Project MX981 - a project designed to see how much sudden deceleration a person can stand in a crash - Captain Edward A. Murphy, an engineer, would first find an transducer which was incorrectly wired, then locate the responsible / irresponsible technician and reportedly say: "If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it", thus coining the now infamous "Murphy's Law"), together these "Three Ms" remind us of three things, to wit: No matter what you do sh*t is gonna happen, it's not possible to anticipate all of the potential sh*t that might happen and if "bad sh*t" can happen, then it will happen. Finally "The Three Cs" are a simply reference to "Cops, Courts and Constitutions" (as in: "When it comes to "The Three Cs" remember to #UPx2 and call #HaberPA, stat!"). If you're wondering why I just wrote 379 words using up 2,199 of the 4,000 characters allotted to me to respond the answer is simply that your Client Review just now inspired a similar catchphrase, to wit: "The Three Ss" - "Short, Succinct and Sweet" - as was your kind Client Review. That said you hired me to prepare and to file a Petition to Expunge your previously dismissed criminal case, which is far from rocket science but, still, is a painstakingly detailed process. Having done hundreds of these over 3+ decades I have streamlined that part of the process that we can control (note that I have no control over how long or efficient either the State Attorney's Office or the Florida Department of Law Enforcement chooses to be); specifically I have all of the forms handy and ready (they are "plug and play", simply needing to be personalized to the client's specific case), once tasked I customize and email them to the client with detailed step-by-step, "childproof" instructions. The quicker that the client accomplishes the few things that I cannot do for her/him (e.g. execute the prepared application and affidavit in the presence of a notary and get fingerprinted at a local police station) the quicker that I can get the ball rolling. All things equal (again depending upon the SAO and FDLE respectively) the expungement process can be expected to take 3-9 months but, again, the client can either assist or obstruct, and in your case it was absolute assistance. Being the responsible client you were allowed me to be an effective advocate, so please accept my gratitude (both for your help and kind words). Wishing you a Happy New Year! Fondly, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA ”

Great Strategy, Great Outcome!
After a short, celebratory weekend in Miami, and a run in with Miami PD in the 305, I found myself in need of council for two misdemeanor charges. With no criminal background and no first hand knowledge of the criminal justice system, I returned to my out-of-state home to begin negotiating the charge...
Dear Anonymous, Thank you for your kind Client Review (#HaberPA's 235th on AVVO)! As you've not identified yourself & for the benefit of those who read this I'll elaborate a bit on your now closed case. You were arrested, booked & released after posting bond while a tourist in The 305. Upon returning to your hometown you began a long distance search for representation. I don't know how many lawyers you spoke with before choosing to hire #HaberPA but when we spoke, having reviewed your Arrest / Probable Cause Affidavit & with the benefit of your version of events, I took the time to thoroughly explain the possibilities, to field all of your questions, & to outline a plan of action (with contingencies). Once you agreed I embarked upon achieving your goal (to wit: a Dismissal without entering a Diversionary Program). Because you reside out of State & as yours was a Misdemeanor case the Rules of Criminal Procedure permit for remote representation; as such, together with my written Retainer Agreement I prepared & emailed you a Verified Motion to Proceed in Absentia (seeking permission for you NOT to have to appear in Court), a Verified Change of Plea in Absentia (to maintain in my file as a proverbial emergency parachute, albeit with no plan on using it) & when you returned the original notarized documents to me I waited until a day before your Arraignment to file my Appearance, Demands for Discovery & Trial & the Absentia Motion (waiting until the day before Arraignment guaranteed that ⅓ of your "Speedy Trial" time would have ticked &, knowing both the Miami-Dade County Clerk of Court & State Attorney's Office as I do it was a good bet - albeit not a certainty - that a large portion, if not all of the remaining ⅔'s, would be eaten-up before the case was set for Trial & before the Prosecutor sent out the discovery). As the 90th day neared (90 days being the Speedy Trial time for a Misdemeanor arrest in FL) we had no discovery & your case was not yet set for Trial, leaving us in a dilemma. Do we file a Notice of Expiration, clue in the State & give the Judge an opportunity to ramrod us into a literal Speedy Trial or do we wait for the Trial Date to be set, see if discovery is tendered & then react accordingly? I chose the latter path, your case was set for Trial shortly thereafter (in front of a Judge who does not conduct "Sounding" / Status Hearings before Trial settings) & the State had still not provided any discovery. One week to the day before Trial I filed (but did not calendar) a Motion to Compel Discovery & a Request for a State Charged Continuance (thus preserving your Speedy Trial rights while leaving the door open to seek a dismissal at the Trial call should the State not have it's witnesses in the Courtroom & at the ready). I appeared for Trial in your absence, the State was not ready, I withdrew my Motion to Compel & to Continue, the Court denied the State's "ore tenus" (oral, in Court, without notice) request for a Continuance & your case was Nolle Pros'd / Dismissed. Why / how did that happen? Experience, that's why / how. Knowing - make that "mastering" - the Rules of Procedure & Evidence, employing guile, being aware of, attuned to & alert for loopholes & technicalities allowed me to serve you precisely as we contemplated. Had we chosen another path (such as filing the Notice of Expiration) then we may not have achieved the desired result (not as sweetly as we did anyhow). As you noted, during the course of the case (which was about 3½ months start to finish) we spoke, emailed & texted regularly (hopefully I never kept you waiting long), I kept you fully informed, you were able to live your life "as if" there was no Miami criminal case & within a reasonable amount of time I secured your Dismissal in your absence & with no further inconvenience to your life. Your trust in me both paid off for you & is greatly appreciated by me, as is your kind Client Review. Wishing you all the best! Fondly, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA

No regrets at all after hiring Marc Haber's services, excellent diligence, very professional and transparent,he will keep you notified in every step of the process, he will go straight to the point and will answer any inquiries you might have at any time,im very grateful I took the decision to work w...
Dear Anonymous, Noting that my forename is "Mike" not "Marc" (but also that both are 1 syllable, 4 letters words including 3 consonants & 1 vowel), I want to thank you for your kind words (in the form of #HaberPA's 233rd AVVO Client Review). As you've not identified yourself & as I am well aware of who you are, I will share more about your situation with the folks so that they understand the dynamics of what led you to author this client review. You were arrested & charged in a Drug Trafficking Sting Operation. While you were pretrial detained your family hired another lawyer to represent you in the substantive case, for which you agreed to a plea deal involving probation. After serving ½ of your probationary term you found & reached out to me to assist you in securing Early Termination. (I should note that you contacted me because you were not satisfied with your original lawyer, an attorney whom I know, respect & who, from my review of the case file, in fact had done an excellent job - as an aside you went from being arrested for Cocaine Trafficking, Conspiracy to Traffic in Cocaine, Possession of Cocaine, Possession of Marijuana & Possession of Unlawful Proceeds from a Financial Transaction to receiving probation & a Withhold of Adjudication for Possession of Cocaine & Unlawful Proceeds from a Financial Transaction with all other charges Nolle Pros'd / dismissed by the State... a disposition which, all things equal & admittedly not being intimate with the facts & circumstances, is impressive... but I digress...) Anyhow, I discussed your situation with you (most especially determining your understanding of the status of your conditions of probation, i.e. what you knew / believed to have been completed & what was outstanding), I had you provide me with your POs contact information, explained that I needed to verify everything that we had discussed & that as soon as I was certain that your case was ripe for Early Termination I would prepare, file, calendar & litigate the Motion to ET Probation (aside alert: before making representations to the Court, & as President Ronald Reagan famously said, I "trust but verify"). After first securing then reviewing your disposition / sentencing documents & having a conversation with your Probation Officer I discovered that there were both outstanding obligations (court costs) & an issue with regard to your Community Service Hours. With your assistance (i.e. you promptly zero-balanced your case with the Clerk of Court & you provided your PO with proof of compliance with the CSHs), we straightened everything out & then proceeded. During the course of my representation you were Cc'd on all of my various correspondences, filings & emails (i.e. with your PO, the State, the Court, etc.) & within a few weeks time we had successfully applied for & you were granted the relief sought. Due to your own diligence you are now a free man (my role was, admittedly, "de minimus" as you were the one who had to "walk the walk", & you did so, in both a flawless & responsible fashion, thus arming me with all of the tools that I needed so as to get the desired Court Order). For the further benefit of the folks (but also as "props" for you) probation is not "easy" to survive. It is properly viewed as a a gift from an "Indian giver" in the form of a proverbial noose with just enough rope for a probationer to hang her/himself. The State knows that where one violates the hammer drops hard, the deck is stacked in their favor, the alleged violator has extremely limited rights (far fewer than in the substantive case) & most all Violations Of Probation are a veritable "slam dunk" for the State. You accepted that burden, acted prudently & dutifully, did not VOP, complied with all conditions & special conditions & as such you literally set yourself up for success. If you wish we can Seal your record but in any event you are now, once again, righteous, & I am grateful. Wishing you all the best. Fondly, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA
"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."
