Highly Recommended!!!

I highly recommend Mr. Haber for his outstanding service, dedication, and commitment to my case. As a Boston resident and non-U.S. citizen on a Student Visa, I faced significant concerns when I was unexpectedly charged with a felony while on vacation in Miami. After finding Mr. Haber (through online ...search). Mr. Haber engaged in numerous discussions with me via phone, text, Zoom, and email, always taking the time to patiently and thoroughly address my questions. In addition to his regular work on my case, Mr. Haber went above and beyond by coordinating directly with my Canadian immigration lawyer. He not only explained my situation to support my pending citizenship application but also authored several emails and letters on my behalf. Importantly, he provided this additional assistance as a courtesy, with no extra fees. In less than a month, Mr. Haber resolved my case exactly as we had hoped, achieving the best possible outcome and putting me in a strong position moving forward. While there are still a few final steps I need to complete on my end, I am incredibly grateful for Mr. Haber’s expertise, integrity, and generosity throughout this challenging time. I trust Mr. Haber completely and would not hesitate to work with him again in the future.

Dear Anonymous, Thank you so much² (² as 1, your exceptionally well-written, heartfelt words are heartwarmingly accepted & 2, as you didn't ID yourself I can share more about your case than I could if your identity were known). You were arrested on Felony Shoplifting charges while visiting The 305. With neither a clue as to how to navigate the Criminal Justice System nor whom to hire you did that which so many others in your situation do, to wit: you turned to the internet for direction & found me amongst untold numbers of other lawyers. As you explained it to me, it was my literal hundreds of 5-Star Client Reviews (yours now being # 257, thank you again) coupled with my detailed responses to each & every one of those Reviews (precisely as I am doing here & now) that prompted you to reach out. After that (& noting that you spoke with several other Miami based criminal defense lawyers) it was the fact that I "engaged in numerous discussions with me via phone, text, Zoom, and email" (which we did, as you were arguably overly concerned) coupled with my follow-through by having "always taking the time to patiently and thoroughly address my questions" which proved to you that I was the "right" attorney to assist you (& also that at #HaberPA we not only "talk the talk" but we "walk the walk"). That said 1 of the things that I initially noticed on your Arrest Report / Probable Cause Affidavit was that you were born outside of the US & were thus a foreign national (dual aside alert: first, Miami-Dade County is NOT a sanctuary / haven, both as such & a matter of protocol ICE is notified each & every time that a non-US citizen is booked into our Jail & second, as Jack Reacher famously, accurately & regularly opines, "details matter", & #HaberPA is ever attentive to details). Because of this during our initial consultation we discussed your immigration status, your prospective intentions & how your arrest & case resolution may significantly effect the same. You advised that you were legally in the US on a Visa & that you had a pending application for Canadian citizenship for which you had hired a Canadian immigration lawyer. As #HaberPA is a "boutique" Criminal Defense Litigation Law Firm (aside alert: to us "boutique" means that we make ourselves easily reachable by phone, email or on the internet, we practice open, honest, direct & frequent communication & we take a "global" view and approach toward representation - e.g. we take the time to consider the client's unique personal circumstances by coming to understand you & your situation, adopting your interests as our own, identifying & securing realistic litigation objectives, quoting & honoring reasonable fees in writing & thereafter rapidly investigating & preparing your case for whatever resolution may come, preferably the 1 that we identify as our "primary litigation objective" but if not then our secondary or even tertiary goals) I offered to assist as I may, suggesting that you put your Canadian Immigration Lawyer and I in touch sooner than later. I suggested that you do so in writing (in 1 email to both of us) so that it'd be clear that you'd knowingly waived the otherwise sacrosanct confidentiality of your Attorney-Client Privilege & authorized your lawyers to freely speak with one another about our respective cases in your common interest. In your particular instance I wound up spending nearly as much time with your Immigration Lawyer as I did in working on your criminal case (a fact that I didn't predict beforehand), still that was a courtesy which I was happy to provide without any additional cost (& is yet another example of #HaberPA's boutique nature). We were able to rapidly accomplish precisely that which we set out to do & you're well on the way to both righteousness & Canadian citizenship. It was my privilege to be able to serve & I'm humbled² (² = 1st to be chosen & 2 by your kind Client Review), which is sure to benefit others. Thanks again! Fondly, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA

A wonderful lawyer who gives the best service at the best price

was arrested for DUI and needed to find a lawyer. I found many lawyers on the internet and talked to some on the phone. Some of these conversations were short and some were long, but no one gave me the confidence I wanted until I found Michael Haber, the lawyer with the most reviews and the best thin...gs written about him. We talked on the phone for about 75 minutes and at the end of the conversation I knew he was my lawyer. Mr. Michael explained the events, processes, facts and possible events in an understandable, simple and beautiful language. He talked about facts instead of selling me dreams. He avoided exaggeration. He spoke decisively, confidently and clearly. He drew me a great road map in the fastest way and we set off immediately. Mr. Michael told me: "Just do what I say, stay calm and don't be afraid, I will take care of the rest". But I was worried & scared because my license was suspended and I only had 5-6 days to get all my documents ready and apply to MiamiBAR.  Mr. Michael understood the Hardship license was vital for me and he worked over the weekend to get it done, with my documents ready by Sunday evening. Early Monday morning he sent my file to MiamiBAR and started the process. He gave me tasks to do, like enrolling in a DUI school. He explained what I had to do in the clearest, most detailed and precise ways. I am a very anxious and panicky person. I make a big deal out of problems and obsess over it but Mr. Michael managed my situation very well. I got my BPO license in about a week. Later on he received and analyzed the police reports and the BWC. He sent them to me and I reviewed them and then he discussed the matter in detail with me and my immigration lawyer, explaining it to both of us in detail. We evaluated the possibilities and risks & then together we chose the path that made the most sense and was right for me. When Mr. Michael advised me he never thought about his own interests or the money he could make. He only thought about my interests and well-being. This is one of the biggest features that distinguishes him from other lawyers. Mr. Michael was punctual and knew his job well so he concluded the case in about 1.5 months and with a reasonable result. I am grateful to him for all he did and can not thank him enough for all his help and support. I am sure that I would have been in a much more trouble if I had not met him. There are so many positive things to say, but the most prominent are his accessibility, punctuality, speed, diligence and patience. He was at all times available to me by phone & email and never leaving me hanging. He always promptly replied and was available to me, even on nights and weekends. During the time we worked together I sent many long e-mails to Mr. Michael asking questions and expressing concerns. He answered every single one in detail without getting impatient. Even on weekends I received answers in a surprisingly short time (15 minutes to 2 hours). I received answers at 7-9am for e-mails I sent at 3-4am and the answers I received were descriptive, detailed, complete and covered all my questions. Mr. Michael's performance was extraordinary. Mr. Michael taught me how to get the best service at the best price. He made me say countless times during this fearful, anxious and uncertain DUI process "wow, what a lawyer. What lawyers there are in the world!!!”. And after such a troubling and difficult process, I can wholeheartedly admit the following truth: Michael Adam Haber is a legend who wrote the book on DUI law. He is more than a DUI lawyer. Of course, my problem was DUI, so I talked about just this subject. But when I think of Mr. Michael as a lawyer in general, he is out of this world as a lawyer. He is giving you more and more and more than you pay him. (PS: Honestly, there are so many positive things to write a book about the great service I received from Mr. Michael, but the lines are limited and if I write a little longer, the site will not accept)

Dear Anonymous, Yours (which is #HaberPA's 243rd Client Review on AVVO) is now one of my hands-down favorite explanations by a client as to why I was hired & how I performed as an "advisor, advocate, negotiator & evaluator" (those being the "roles" delineated by The Florida Bar as to "A Lawyer's Responsibilities" in the Preamble to Chapter 4 of the Rules of Professional Conduct) on your behalf. Noting that you've perhaps provided the folks with the best, most heartfelt explanation that I could've ever imagined, still I'll chime in, point by point, as best I can, although recognizing that I won't compare to your categorical & civilian, real-world analysis. When I answer a cold-call from a potential client I explain that before we discuss the case I need, at a minimum, to review the Probable Cause / Arrest Affidavit (that way I know the client's "worst case scenario" before I hear the accused's version of events). Once I've digested the Arresting Officer's justification then I eagerly listen to the potential client, asking relevant questions with a design to identify possibilities & probabilities, offer options & suggestions &, of course, to be able to quote a fair fee for anticipated services. I'm not the least bit surprised that other lawyers with whom you spoke didn't offer that sort of time, effort & analysis; in fact one could argue that I count on my colleagues being short, terse & "blowing sunshine" (as opposed to my approach, i.e. taking a "leap of faith", calculating that my taking the time & offering honest analysis is well worth the while). In fact I'm so certain that most - not all but the far larger percent - of my colleagues will be short, pithy & unrealistically rosy that I encourage potential clients to speak with other lawyers before making a hiring decision. That said, once I'm hired it's "game on", & in DUI cases (yours was an accident with both property damage & injuries, albeit minor injuries) that includes expediting services in light of the unavoidable & imminent DMV component. In fairness to me (& given the rare exception where I believe that intentional delay is a sage tactic), I don't dilly-dally in any aspect of any case, instead opting to operate with a "SOP" of preferring to work quickly so as to try to simultaneously catch the State off guard & to get the client closure sooner as opposed to later; but in your case (given the DL suspension, your need to drive & the brief window within which to act) a rapid response was absolutely necessary & so it pressingly came to pass. This mentality (of getting things done, stat) pervades all aspects of #HaberPA's representation, which is why I do my absolute best to field client's calls, texts & emails as close to immediately as is humanly possible. While I enjoy my life as best I can I also empathize with my clients, who themselves need answers, guidance, information & feedback in real time, & so I also do my best to be accessible, available & responsive. After 32+ years in this industry I've leaned many things but perhaps the most fundamental is that each case & each client is sentient, unique & must be addressed & treated accordingly. Having inquired about your legal status in the US I knew that immigration concerns existed & when you advised that you had an immigration lawyer I suggested a waiver of confidentiality such that I could bring her into the loop & thus ensure comprehensive action with regard to both criminal & immigration concerns, without compromising one at the other's expense. I won't presume to either consider myself to be "a legend" or to have written "the book on DUI law" (although anyone who follows #HaberPA's #PSAOfTheDay on Facebook, X, YouTube & MeWe might disagree, arguing that I author a "book du jour") but I will both gratefully accept your perception of me as such & defer to your impression as you explain it to others. Thank you again for your sincere & kind words; they truly mean the world to me. Most gratefully, MAH/Esq. #HaberPA

Arguably the best criminal law attorney in Miami

I was charged with two felonies of grand theft and uttering a forged instrument in Dade County and interviewed several attorneys to take my case. Despite the unbelievable levels of stress and paranoia that the prospect of encarceration can bring, I was determined to carefully evaluate every attorney ...I met with and review their assesments of my case. From the very first time I called Michael, even before I had engaged his services, he gave me plenty of information and was the only one who, from the get go, pointed out the immigration implications of my criminal charges. Before becoming a client he even asked for the police report to confirm his assesment of my case and the possible scenarios I was facing. I have yet to meet an attorney who would be as objective and proactive as Michael was even before hiring his services. He himself suggested for me to talk to a few other attorneys before I made a final decision on representation. Needless to say I did and after three other meetings with different attorneys ranging from the dozen of thousands of dollars to more modest fees, I decided to hire Michael as he was the most knowleadgeable, confident and more importantly the most straightforward of them all. As a client, I kept reaching out to him for every step we were taking with my case and for every new piece of information I was compulsively googling about my case. His responses were always based on facts, statistics, his vast experience in Miami and in the context of my particular case. Michael had one of my felonies dismissed the same week I was charged. The second one dismissed after he negotiated my way into Pre-trial diversion. I was already convinced that I had hired a top attorney then but when I had my hearing, with Michael by my side the judge said verbatum in front of everyone at court "so you're the famous Michael Haber, when my prosecutors see your name they start shaking". I couldn't make this up, there were at least 30 people in that court room who witnessed a judge say that about the attorney representing me. After that everything was smooth sail. I did what I had to do and didn't do what I wasn't supposed to do, per Michael's instructions. I completed PTI and I'm about to retain Michael for expungement of my record. I compulsively research everything and everyone and Michael was very patient with me with my repetitive questions and realistic with the strategy of my case. I thank him for being firm and objective when my nervousness and paranoia were getting the best of me and for the top notch representation he provided me all the way.

Dear Anonymous, Thank you for the awesome and detailed review. I have found that there are 2 types of criminal defense lawyers: There are those who blindly quote fees and then there are lawyers like myself, who take the time to fully (as fully as possible anyhow) A) understand the facts and circumstances of the case - both as alleged by the government and by the client, B) envision the various paths that are available to the client, C) come to understand the client's personal needs and position, D) educate the client so that a realistic objective - in light of both the government's case and the client's situation - can be targeted, E) formulate a plan to achieve the litigation objective and F) only then quote a legal fee which has been fairly tailored to the work to be performed in light of the client's chosen path. In 25+ years of criminal defense practice I have found that the key to a successful attorney-client relationship (actually I suppose that it is key to all meaningful relationships) is open and honest communication, and, as such, discourse is necessarily a 2-way street. So, not only do I keep my client fully informed, but I also listen to what my client has to say (for A) I do not presume to know everything, B) I recognize that the client looks at things through a different prism than I and C) no one is more vested in the outcome of the case than the client). I go into every case telling potential clients (just as I did with you) that the reviews they read online were all - each and every one - earned, that my end game is to earn their review at the conclusion of their case and that the decision-maker - the Judge of my legal services - is the client (meaning, if I do not deliver "as advertised" then you won't deliver a heartfelt and positive client review). So, in your case, it seems that the mission was accomplished. I am elated that you were happy enough with my services to merit such a rave review. So just as you thank me so too do I thank you, and I wish you and yours a happy, healthy and prosperous 2017. Fondly, MAH/Esq

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.

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."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
