Excellent Experience

Michael Casey made the process of completing my divorce stress fee. He was very responsive to my questions and concerns. I highly recommend his professional services.

Many thanks

Mike and his team were courteous and professional. They walked me through every step of the divorce process, and answered every question I could think of asking. I was also surprised to find out how affordable it was. Overall, I don’t have a single complaint. They made a terrible life experience much... more tolerable. Thank you all!

He's in it for the long haul...

I hired Mr. Casey in 2017 for a custody case. My case has been very high conflict, very disruptive, and very intense. It has been a LONG 3 years, and we have been in and out of court A LOT. Michael's professionalism and knowledge is obvious, yet he has this remarkable ability to dissect and explai...n the complexities of what was happening so that I could easily understand. He puts effort in to making sure I know what to expect before and after court, as well as what to do with all the stuff in between court dates. He has been patient with me in explaining the do's and don'ts of different situations from a legal standpoint; he has answered questions that were applicable to the case, while also separating the matters that weren't. We have sat in his office and gone over strategies and scenarios, witness testimonies, motions, legal standpoints and relevance... He is truly a GREAT ATTORNEY. He cares about the well being of his clients and the kids involved. He has shown that he will fight for what is right and he is in it 'til the end. I couldn't be any more grateful for the fact that I know no matter what comes my way, if I need to ask for direction regarding matters of my case, I can count on Michael.

Child Custody

I was beyond satisfied with hiring Michael for my child custody case. He made the situation a lot less stressful with his knowledge and timely responses to the many questions I had. I would certainly recommend Michael to anyone that needed an attorney who goes above and beyond for his clients.

Grateful

I made a cold call for a divorce attorney. Mr. Casey returned my phone call the same day. He listened to my situation, was patient and compassionate. Through the process he was efficient, professional and returned my calls promptly. I'm thankful for his service.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
