Midnight Arrest Emergency: Perspective of the father-in-law.
I was startled when I learned that my son-in-law had been arrested for loitering and prowling in a small, distant Florida community. No one in our family knew anyone from that area and, as an attorney, I was gravely concerned that it could result in a permanent blemish on my son-in-law’s clear recor...
Thank you very much Jerry. I am always thrilled when my client's offer me their gratitude (as I should be) but I am especially proud when a fellow lawyer recognizes my skill set, ability and results-oriented practice. We lawyers are not easily impressed, so I know that I have earned your trust and respect through actions, and this is is a great source of pride.

Great Lawyer
My son was 17 and I was very worried about him being processed in the legal systems as an adult, worried he would mess up his life because he reacted bad to a situation that occurred due to a loss of an animal, we were referred to Mr. Haber and he did not let us dowm, he is a great lawyer my son was...
Thank you very much for your kind words Eva. Given the nature, facts and circumstances surrounding his charges your son was a perfect candidate for being direct filed into the adult system; thus the battle to keep him in juvenile court was perhaps even more important than was dealing with the case itself. As a juvenile in FL his criminal history is, by statute, confidential and protected from public scrutiny. He now has a clean slate and will not need to worry about future employers, lenders, landlords, licensing authorities, admissions or screening committees, etcetera, either hassling or denying him opportunities based upon this unfortunate incident. Thank you again for your kind words, as well as for the opportunity to have been of service to you and your son. Wishing you both the best. Fondly, MAH/Esq.

The best legal outcome possible I could have wanted achieved by Mike Haber
I was in a terrible situation where I had unfortunately incurred two DUI’s in one week while in Florida for business - the 2nd involving a bad accident where I hit another car and caused very serious damage. I knew that if I didn’t get the best representation, I would be facing up to one year in ja...
Thank you Gary. That was an incredibly heartfelt and detailed review. Your concurrent multi-jurisdictional cases presented challenges to be sure, but you were a rock star, diligently following my instructions (not always without trepidation or even challenge, but still, doing what had to be done and, perhaps more importantly, not doing that which you should not have done) and thereby allowing me to earn both the result and your praise, and that is the primary goal of my law firm. One thing that makes Michael A. Haber, P.A. a "boutique" practice is our level of commitment to and concern for the client, and that includes recovery in cases like yours. I want to help you in court but I am also concerned with your life after court, and for folks with substance abuse issues (and even more so for "dual diagnosis" patients) after-care is clutch. So as I thank you for your review let me also praise you for your efforts, offer my best wishes for you and your family and give you a head's up that I'll be both rooting for and checking up on you periodically. Be good. Be sober. Be safe. And know that although we were once "attorney-client" we have evolved to being friends. So, as we say in the 305: "¡Cuídate amigo!"

Honest, Ethical, Knowledgeable Attorney
I hired Michael Haber based on all of the previous positive reviews on AVVO. I had no prior criminal record, but was arrested for a DUI & careless driving on the worst night of my life. I had an accident in which I hit 1 car, which hit another car, the 2nd car hit a 3rd car. It was a 4 car accident. ...
And I too am thankful to you Jennifer. I truly appreciate your explanation that you took a "leap of faith" in retaining my law office based upon what other clients had written about their experiences and now, at the conclusion of your case, you have done the same for the benefit of others (and for my law practice as well). Thank you again, and congratulations on a most favorable outcome.

"It's very hard to find a Lawyer who has a big HEART"
I wanted to let everyone including the firm how I felt about your service. I want to start with my knowledge and experiences that I have had with other Law Firms. Lawyers that I have had in the past have an Assistant who replies to all email's or returns your calls for the lawyers. WELL GUESS WHAT...
Thank you for your very kind review Edith. As you know I run a boutique practice. I do my best to cater to the needs of my clients, and that means, for the most part, personal and personalized service. Unlike the other players in a given case (i.e. the Judge or the prosecuting authority) I maintain a small enough case load that I can both dedicate the time to my client and thereby come to know my client, my client's circumstances, their family, their needs, etc. At Michael A. Haber, PA clients are not case numbers or statistics; they are people, real people, and at the end of the case it is my sincere hope that we will then be more than attorney-client... we will then be friends. Thank you again!
