Practice areas

I began practicing law on October 14, 1981. I was in private practice until February 14, 1984 when I joined the law firm of Busald Funk Zevely. I became a partner with the firm in 1986 and have practiced with Busald Funk Zevely since then. I have tried many cases in all courts in Northern Kentucky and therfore have many years of trial experience to assist my clients. I concentrate my practice primarily in family law and criminal law. Additionally, I do estate planning work such as preparing wills, trusts, power of attorneys and living wills.

Wonderful lawyer
I am very grateful for the services Mike provided for me while working on my divorce case. As an engineer I am use to being well-versed on a process before I begin it, but this was not the case with divorce, which can be very complicated and confusing. I was very intimidated. Fortunately, I had Mike as my lawyer, whose expertise, responsiveness, patience, transparency, and sense of humor served as a stabilizing force and a constant reminder that I am in good hands. He is a fantastic lawyer whom I highly recommend.

divorce case
Hired Mike to represent me through my divorce. He was extremely helpful and paid attention to detail. Put full trust in him with a difficult case with an unreasonable husband, and he excelled with every issue. Mike was easy to converse with, great personality! Emails were answered quickly, and questions were explained thoroughly. mike provided truthful advice throughout the process, would definitely recommend!

Best Divorce Lawyer in Northern Kentucky!
Mike was there when I needed a lawyer (haven't had another one since) 13 plus years ago when going through a divorce. As many of us know, that have been through this...its more emotional than anything. He was not only professional, but caring. (For all involved I must say). Best line I've heard was from my ex wife to her friend... "Call Mike McMain, he's really good" He was my LAWYER!

Excellent Criminal Attorney
I was referred to Michael McMain by several clients he had represented in criminal cases. I was charged with a felony and multiple misdemeanors charges. The facts of my case were not good. Michael McMain filed a motion to suppress some of the evidence in my case and was successful. Because of his hard work and his experience, he was able to convince the prosecutor to refer my case to a felony diversion program as opposed to serving time in jail which was the prosecutor's first offer to settle my case. If you are looking for an excellent criminal attorney, I would strongly suggest you call Michael McMain. I am thankful I did!!

Very helpful
He was great, he called around when I requested. He didn't seem to rush me and seemed genuine about trying to find a way to help. He was very knowledgeable, and gave me the information I needed and although he doesn't have time right now for my case, he is trying to find a partner that will.

Child custody
I can't not say enough good things about Mike! At a time when I felt that there was no hope of continuing to keep custody of my children, he came through for me and continues to win battles for me.

A Class Act!!
Worth every penny I've spent. I'm a single mother who was up against a complete bully with plenty of money. He knows the law very well and shut down all of the drama and put out every fire almost instantly. I felt protected with him on my side and ultimately I was. He knew what was going to happen before it happened. He made precise recommendations, decisions and was always 5 steps ahead. I would not hesitate to recommend him, hands down a class act!!

Best in Class
I have had Mr. McMain represent myself multiple times for Child Custody case. Michael sets the bar for what an attorney is/should be. No matter what the matter at hand is, Michael is always right on target with expectations & realistic outcomes, I am never left wondering 'What if.' His professionalism & dedication to each case is the #1 thing that has always driven me to have him represent my cases. I may not be the million dollar client, but I always leave feeling like I received a million dollar treatment. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my case.

The Best in the Business, Look no Further !
I have worked with Mike over the past 13 years on a divorce and the subsequent custody and financial matters. It is without question I recommend Mike as the lawyer you want to work with. He is respected by all within the court system and has great knowledge and experience to address all matters. I truly appreciate his communication, candor, direction and approach to all of the legal issues I have faced over the years. Most legal and family issues are very stressful and emotional for the client, and I would not want to be going through any of it without Mike McMain at my side. Five stars for sure, Six if that was available!

Mike McMain is the BEST!
Mr. McMain was highly recommended by an attorney friend of a family member of mine. Mr. McMain represented me through a very volatile divorce, Emergency Protection Order, Domestic Violence Order and violations of the order. And I can say this without a doubt in my mind that Mike is the best (and so is his assistant, Terri). When he represents you, he knows the law, he knows what he is doing and will work endlessly to get the results you want/need. He is a true professional, honest, knowledgeable, and he is very good at what he does.

Lawyer Review
I entered into a very UGLY custody case and Mike came highly recommended to me. From day 1 of this nightmare, Mike has had my back, day, night whenever/wherever. It became clear to me within the first thirty days, EVERYONE who was ANYONE knew Mike McMain. He is highly respected by the people who work at the courthouse, the judges and also everyone else who I have been in contact with during my custody case. There is no doubt in my mind the result achieved in my case would not have been the same without him. If you need the absolute best-you just found him!
