violation of probation\ Warrent
Micheal Harvard was very professional and fought for me. Thankful to him that my case was resolve , he was with me through out the entire court process and making sure we understand each other, so he can provide the best representation and that's exactly what he did. He is strict but He is Worth it. ...
Dear Denzel, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with #HaberPA in the form of authoring my 212th Client Review on AVVO. I am going to go out on a limb and guess that by calling me "strict" you are referring to the fact that in your case I felt it necessary to bridle you by applying tight control and regulation during the course of my representation. If that's correct then I trust that given both your circumstances when I was retained and the outcome when I was finished you have come to understand the "why" of that (and from your kind words - to wit: "very professional and fought for me", "with me through out the entire court process", "making sure we understand each other" and "provide the best representation" - it seems that we have indeed come to understand one another). I was stern with you with purpose, and together (yes, I could not have done it without you and your steadfast cooperation) we achieved the best possible result. That said my role as your adviser, advocate, negotiator and evaluator has concluded, you are now entirely free of both my draconian rule and the even harsher and more oppressive criminal justice system and all being said and done I am truly grateful... not just for your time and words but also for your leap of faith in entrusting me with your liberty. Thank you Denzel. You have graduated from "client" to "family" (noting that I'd much rather see you at a BBQ than in a courtroom). Wishing you and yours all the best. Fondly, MAH/Esq.

Returning Property (firearm) from POLICE
I used to work with another lawyer who promised me to return my firearm without any problems from HOMESTEAD POLICE DEPARTMENT and since that past almost one year and nothing. I was very sad. I start surfing YouTube trying find any help and BIG THANK YOU to the Michael Adam Haber PA, he having the ...
Dear Hernando, Thank you so very much for your kind words and for authoring #HaberPA's 210th Client Review on AVVO. The number of people who come to me with 100% legitimate complaints about their lawyers never ceases to amaze me, and while I'd prefer to be the guy who gets the job done right in the first instance I'm also always happy to come in and clean up some other sub-standard lawyer's mess. I am also particularly grateful to you for explaining to the folks how you met me (to wit: by watching one of #HaberPA's VideoFAQs on our YouTube channel "MichaelHaberLaw" - in this instance # 281 - How can I get my Gun back from the Police? @ https://youtu.be/sRP_PLegJCo ). #HaberPA's VideoFAQ started as an experiment but has evolved into a significant source of information and business, with all of our 375 short, creative and informative Criminal Defense, Criminal Law & Criminal Procedure, DUI, BUI, Domestic Violence, Crime Victim's Rights, Evidence and Seal & Expunge Webisodes being available through my AVVO attorney profile (of course I welcome anyone to view them via AVVO's platform but I will be especially grateful for a subscription to: www.youtube.com/c/michaelhaberlaw ). That said, it took 2 weeks from the day that you and I first spoke for me to secure (in hand) a certified Court Order requiring the HPD to return your firearm to you, but I also secured and provided you with the protocol from HPD (including HPD's "Firearm's Claim Form", without which you could not regain possession of your gun) and connected you with the Record's Custodian who was CC'd with all documents (the Motion, the Notice of Hearing and the Court Order) in real time. It matters not whether I am tasked with a filing a procedural motion such as yours or a jury trial or anything in between, as no matter what the objective #HaberPA will always pay attention to the client and the client's needs, field your questions, ease your concerns and otherwise keep you in the loop until such time as we have provided the precise service for which we were retained. It is only by serving our clients in this boutique fashion that we can hope to earn your positive client review at the conclusion of your case. I am thrilled that you are happy and that "My experience with Haber PA are fantastic" and more I could not possibly ask. Take care, be safe and well and welcome to the #HaberPA family. Gratefully, MAH/Esq.

Mr.
My son is a college student who was in Miami over the summer. He had never been in any trouble with the law before and so his mother and I were shocked and saddened when we found out that he had been arrested. Without any connections or experience I turned to the internet for information. I search...
Dear Anonymous Parent, Thank you for taking the time to author and share your experience with the folks in the form of #HaberPA's 207th Client Review on AVVO. This review is so succinct and well written that it's actually challenging for me to add anything relevant, but, I am a lawyer and so I will try. :-) When one encounters something by chance that seems like it was meant to be, then it could be "kismet", or destiny, and so it was in this instance. There are a lot of criminal defense lawyers in the Miami area, some are excellent and others are far worse than old-time snake oil salesmen (especially those which pay big bucks to advertise flashy websites claiming amazing skills for what are in reality nothing more - and usually less than - mediocre quality attorneys who must cover their monthly marketing budget). #HaberPA does not pay to advertise on the internet so if one does an unspecific Google search for local criminal lawyers then one will have to scroll through a large school of paid ballyhoo before getting to #HaberPA; but, if and when you do locate us then what you will find is a boutique law firm which not only competently handles our limited caseload but which takes the greatest of pride in it's customer service. In 2021 #HaberPA will enter it's 30th year of exclusively criminal defense and related litigation practice and in hindsight here are three (3) observations from it's sometimes humble proprietor: 1) Over the course of those three (3) decades #HaberPA has an unblemished and time proven record with no history whatsoever of any form of professional discipline; 2) We have consistently strived to develop, grow, learn and to amplify our services, both as courtroom litigators and in regard to being an active partner to our clientele; and 3) We are entirely committed to being the most candid, frank, open, honest, sincere, trustworthy, diligent, responsible and accountable attorneys with whom anyone will ever work. I believe that your having found and hired #HaberPA to represent your son was pure providence, and I also believe that your most sincere, kind and descriptive Client Review is unadulterated karma. That said I am elated to know that #HaberPA reached our goals in your son's case (not only in terms of closure but also in regard to customer service) and I am most grateful for your publishing #HaberPA's # 207th Client Review on AVVO. Fondest wishes, MAH/Esq.

Mike was recommended to me by my boss . It was late and my daughter encountered an unforeseen situation where she was falsely accused and arrested .

Dear Anonymous, Thank you for authoring #HaberPA's 204th Client Review on AVVO. No matter how a given client finds us we are always conscientious of performing professionally, diligently, accurately and with integrity, but when we have been specifically referred by someone else we also take special care to present and produce so as to reflect exceptionally well on the referring source. Noting that all criminal cases are serious, thankfully your daughter's case was (in the grand scheme of the criminal justice system) a relatively insignificant one and so in her case it was easy and honest to provide entirely genuine and earnest assurance and comfort (as opposed to other more complicated and formidable cases where such assurance and comfort may not be quite as heartfelt...). I am elated that we were able to secure a dismissal within just 6 weeks time and we will now move on to the next step of expunging your daughter's record, thus restoring her good name and making her once again righteous within the system. I am grateful for your kind words, for you choosing to share your experience with #HaberPA with the folks and of course for your most positive and complimentary commentary and recommendation. Thank you again. Fondly, MAH/Esq.

No Probation
After I finished 1 of my 2 years of probation I asked my PO about early terminating but she told me that if I wanted to get off probation then the the Judge had to be the one to do it and she suggested that I call a lawyer. I found Mike Haber and talked to him about filing the motion. Mike said he'...
Dear Anonymous, Thank you very much for authoring #HaberPA's 202nd Client Review on AVVO! I am grateful for your kind words and have a few observations to make about about your situation. 1) You are lucky that your PO gave you solid advise. Many a probationer asks their PO legal questions (e.g. seeking early termination, converting or avoiding community service hours, permission to move or travel) without realizing that POs have two basic responsibilities, to wit: to supervise and to violate. There are precious few POs who step outside of that box and offer advise, much less are willing to actually "help". While on probation you should remember that your PO is the boss of you but your Judge is boss of your PO and so when you want something modified or terminated then the person you should turn to is your lawyer (who, if it is #HaberPA, is always there to help you to accomplish your lawful objective). 2) Right now, during Covid, Courts - criminal court anyhow - are basically closed with only emergency and the must fundamental of matters being addressed. Still, with the right facts and circumstances, even during a pandemic skilled and experienced counsel (again such as #HaberPA, which has just under 30 years of criminal defense litigation experience) can get things accomplished. 3) Maintaining records is clutch, and because you had your sentencing documents handy and were able to put me in touch with your PO you armed me with the tools that I needed to get the job done. 4) From your initial consultation with me (a telephone call which was followed by a FaceTime discussion and several emails during the course of one afternoon) until the time that we received a signed Court Order successfully early terminating your probation, precisely one week had passed, but three of those days were me waiting to receive a response to any of my repeated telephone messages and emails to your PO and two of those days were a Saturday and a Sunday. So, in reality, it took less than 48 hours for me to locate and reach the correct Assistant State Attorney, to provide them with proof positive of your eligibility for early termination, to secure the government's permission (in writing) to submit an Agreed Order, to prepare the appropriate paperwork, to transmit it to the Judge and in turn to receive the executed, filed and clock-in Court Order. And that is precisely how #HaberPA works... clean, efficient and, as you indicated, for "a fair fee". Congratulations on regaining your freedom. Wishing you and yours all the best in happiness and health and thanking you again for you kind time and words and for sharing the same with the folks! Gratefully, MAH/Esq.
"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."
