In a tier of his own

Mr. Weinstein is truly an exceptional lawyer who promises everything that he claims. I was personally in a serious predicament, facing a felony charge as well as a misdemeanor. Michael reassured me that I could get through this without any serious consequences on my record, and was true to his word. ...All charges were dropped, and I did not even have to pay the ticket I was originally issued. This man made the impossible happen. If you are not sure who to appoint for a lawyer, Michael Weinstein is your man.

Michael is an outstanding Lawyer and really cares about his clients. My case was certainly not the most complex or important legal matter that Michael was working on, however he understood that to me how critical critical the case was to me personally. He is extremely responsive and kept me inform...ed throughout the entire process as my case took over a year to be resolved. I had a case that went to trial and Michael was superb in the courtroom. His preparation, knowledge, commitment, and effort was instrumental in the correct verdict of not guilty being rendered. I would without hesitation recommend Michael D Weinstein as the only attorney that you should contact should you need a criminal attorney for either a small or large complex manner.

Professional, expedited, and personalized legal service

I retained Michael for a simple license suspension issue, however, it had become a bit complicated. I moved out of Florida and recently sold the vehicle related to this matter. I originally contacted numerous "Ticket Clinic" type law firms to handle this DL suspension problem. Not only was their staf...f unprofessional, but they clearly didn't understand my situation. I was basically told I would have to fly down to FL to finalize my reinstatement. They would not be able to help in that aspect. I finally contacted Michaels' firm. His wonderful staff understood my situation and got the ball rolling immediately. I was assured that a flight down to FL was not necessary. Not only did I receive extremely expedited legal results (license reinstated in less than 24 hours,) but his paralegal kept me fully informed every step of the way. Although they are clearly an experienced and seasoned criminal defense firm (Google them,) I was in awe by their personalized and professional service when it came to my irresponsible license problems. If only there were more firms out there like this. Michael and his paralegal make excellent team and were truly a pleasure to work with.

Fantastic Lawyer for DUI Case, Got Serious Charges Dropped

Michael has been absolutely amazing. I am a full time mom and full time medical student who found myself in a very serious situation when facing a DUI charge from a car accident. I was unable to make all the many court appearances as there was no possible way for me to miss clinical rotations at hosp...itals. Michael appeared in my defense multiple times over the long course of a year so that I could continue school and clinicals but still be making headway in my case. Michael ultimately got all the charges dismissed and everything was DROPPED! His staff in the office always returned my calls and processed all situations when I had to leave the state on short notice with regards to pre-trial intervention permission and court permissions. I would not have made it through school and obtained my degree without his help. He fought hard and made valid points in the case that ultimately lead to the final judgement and it being dropped. If it were not for his savvy knowledge of the law and positive relationships with the judges and state prosecutors I highly doubt the outcome of my case would have been so favorable. I am forever grateful for his help and would come to him with any legal situations in the past. In my experience you typically get what you pay for and I can say with confidence that hiring Michael Weinstein was one of the best investment I have made for my future career and the welfare of my family. If you need serious legal help this is the guy you want on your side!
