Great attorney!
Only consulted with this attorney, however he is very knowledgeable of the law and will be realistic and honest with you. He practices outside of tampa and is familiar with other areas as well. Definitely worth it.

He is your guy ! The best !
My boyfriend was facing a PBL offense and his family and I thought for sure he would be locked away for years with the evidence ! Mike knows the law, and is very straight forward with you.

Michael Celso Gonzalez's Lawyer Endorsements
"Michael Gonzalez is a dedicated lawyer who will not back down against the State while fighting for you. He would be a great ally when legal trouble strikes."
"Mike is a straight shooter who knows the law. He has represented clients from all walks of life for many years and continues to fight for his clients every day."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Mike is a top notch lawyer who cares about his clients' causes and is tirelessly dedicated to advocating for each one. A member of the recognized top advocates in the legal community, Mike distinguishes himself with his unique talent of using truth to achieve the best and most effective results for his clients. I have tried a very complex, multiple defendant, jury trial with him representing a codefendant to my client, and I was extremely impressed with the awesome skill and preparedness with which he cross-examined the State's witnesses and veteran sheriff's detectives. His closing argument was most effective at summarizing all the holes in the Government's case, and the reasons why a not guilty verdict was the only just result under the law and facts. It is an added invaluable skill that he is absolutely fluent in Spanish-a skill that is very useful in many cases involving Spanish speaking witnesses. I am lucky to be in the same legal community as such a fine lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mike Gonzalez is a top-notch criminal defense lawyer. When the chips are down, Mike is the lawyer you want on your side. He has the courtroom skill and street savvy to successfully defend at trial or help you avoid prosecution altogether."
"I endorse this lawyer. Solid, smart and experienced."
"There is no question that Mike Gonzalez is both Agressive and knowledgeable in the law. I've gone against him during my time as a prosecutor and found him to be a great advocate for his client."
"I endorse this lawyer. Great lawyer. Hard worker. Super honest. Obviously, loves the law and helping his clients. Would lay down my life for this guy"

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2004.
Public Reprimand issued in FL, 2004
updated on 05/14/2018Public reprimand means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The Bar warns the lawyer in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.
Michael’s comment:
“Nearly 20 years ago the mother of a client complained to the Bar because she didn't get the result she wanted. I spoke to mom with a friend of her's present that she brought to help explain things and the Bar said I should have only spoken to her alone. I was never suspended, put on probation nor had my ability to practice law limited in any way.”
