AWESOME GUY

Mike is an awesome lawyer and knows his stuff. Hes helped me twice this year with a 2 diffrent cases. Also got the judge to dismiss the case and waive all fees. Went over and beyond and helped me stay out of jail. Very communicative and took his time explaining everything in detail. Would definitely ...hire again if ever I needed and will recommend to anyone.

Mr. Rabideau is by far the best lawyer I’ve ever had. He made me feel very comfortable through the whole process and kept in great contact in case I had any questions. I would definitely recommend him. He’s a great guy and a great lawyer.

The BEST

Our experience with Michael has been so incredibly positive. He is very professional and exceptionally qualified. Having someone like Michael in your corner is a must!! Not only does he know how to help but he treats everyone with the same level of integrity, kindness and decency.

Highly recommend!

Michael helped me with a case of my ex-husband trying to use the court system to exhort money. He was extremely knowledgeable, he got two charges dropped immediately. His confidence, based in his knowledge and experience lets you know that its all going to work out and it did. He was responsive and ...compassionate. I would highly recommend him.

Professional, compassionate, excellent attorney!

I am a Family Peer Support Specialist for substance use in the state of Maryland, Mr. Rabideau worked tirelessly and compassionately assisting my family and myself in getting their loved one in Florida substance use and mental health treatment. My experience working with Mr. Rabideau has been very pr...ofessional, thorough, caring and compassionate. Mr. Rabideau was always very timely with responses and paperwork which is very impressive nowadays. Rabideau Law went above and beyond in every way I highly recommend this law firm and if there was an ability to give more than five stars I definitely would.
