He better not ever retire!

We jokingly call him “Uncle Mike” at our house because he really became such a major part of our life for nearly two years in a custody battle and he was so sweet to our little one (but an absolute bull in court). He didn’t let any little thing slide, he’s incredibly knowledgeable, and he got us the... best outcome we could hope for with the situation at hand. I can’t imagine where we’d be now if it weren’t for his persistence. I hope he never retires in case we need him again, I don’t think I could trust anyone else but Mr. Tony!

I wish I would have hired him from the start

Mike Tony would have saved me a lot of grief and heartache had I retained him from the beginning of my divorce. My ex and her attorney have been extremely nasty and vindictive. As soon as I met with Mike, things improved dramatically for me. Being that I did not have Mike from the beginning, my ex ha...s been successful in removing me from my children's lives for a long time. Mike has fought tirelessly to help me get my kids back. And it's going to happen. I just wish I had hired him from the start. He's an excellent family law attorney. His no-nonsense style turns off some people. If you need a pitbull for an attorney, discuss your case with Mike Tony.

Should Wear a Cape!

Ignore the negative comments, there was one that didn’t even have him as an attorney. That being said, Tony is a no nonsense kind of defender, be straight with him and he’ll be straight with you. He might even tell you things you don’t want to hear but fake people tell you what you want to hear. He m...ight come off as tough or intimidating but he’s someone you want on your side. My girlfriend and I were being bothered by CPS in Lorain County and we should’ve called him right away. CPS attorneys are hard to come by in this county and, I believe, Tony is the best! He just took the reins and we didn’t have to worry anymore. DO NOT TRUST CPS! Call Attorney Tony!

Michael Tony as an attorney for 2 cases

Mr Tony represented me in a child support case in 2015 which turned out to be VERY SUCCESSFUL. In 2017, my Ex husband filed for full custody and Mr Tony was exceptional in keeping me from feeling stressed out about losing my children. He was very thorough in noticing details of my case that I would h...ave overlooked. His staff is amazing too! I cannot say enough good things about Michael Tony and his staff. Communication was always on point and I never felt disregarded as a client. Needless to say I am stress free and have still have custody of my children. I would highly recommend this attorney and I have even recommended him to friends & family. His cost was beyond reasonable compared to other attorneys that quoted me for prior cases. Some feel Mr Tony is harsh but let’s remember, you don’t want a woose to fight for you. Thank you Michael Tony for your efforts & hard work.
