Posted by anonymous | April 08, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

My first lawyer and the best one I ever encountered.

I hired Michael about 18 years ago for my first offence drug possession, and he was so cool and understanding of my situation at the time, he really wanted to help me and and offered me the drug court option which was one of the best things I could have done at the time. He explained the law at the ...time and went above and beyond to keep from being thrown out of the drug court program and helped me see the error in my ways at the time, I was young and completely unaware of the Florida controlled substance laws and he really helped open my eyes to the path I was headed. I still think of you today Mr. Rocque and I wish you all the success and praise you deserve as the bad ass lawyer you are. Keep at it and Thank you so much for helping me at that time in my life.

GOOD MOVE TO HIRE MICKY!

I hired Micky 3 years ago for a DUI, I was charged with. At first I had a public defender who did next to NOTHING ! Then I was in court and in walked Micky. The room light up with his huge smiles. EVERYONE in the room knew who he was. As he greeted most of the room. I said to myself "That is an attor...ney, you want on your side!!!" So I asked for is number. He gave me a VERY fair price and fought hard for me. I was found "NOT GUILTY" in trial. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM !!!

Best Defense Money Can Buy

I hired Mickey after I ended up in Drug Court back in 2002. He was extremely fair in his rate and proved to be worth every penny. After almost a half a year of reporting in the program it became plain to see that those with private lawyers were able to navigate through the system with ease. Mickey is... well connected and his experience in the Drug Court program was unparalleled. He has a kinetic sort of personality and he just seems to come to life when hes in the court room.
