Better Outcome than I Even Hoped for!

Lowell Friedman had handled multiple situations for me and I if I ever need to will undoubltely hire him again. He explained everything to me very clearly and used his knowledge and expertise to deliver a better outcome that I even hoped for. His office is professional and fair. HIGHLY recommend The ...Friedman Law Firm!

Excellent advice and guidance, helpful, worked well together

My young adult son lives 700 miles away from his father and me, with no family near him. Lowell Friedman shepherded him through a situation that could have had very serious consequences. Lowell's advice and guidance were on target, and delivered in a way that a newly independent young man accepted an...d followed his guidance. Because of Lowell's knowledge of Michigan law and the local justice system, and the way that he worked with my son, the result was the best possible outcome. (After I connected my son and Lowell, I was not involved directly with the case. However, my son and I talked a great deal during the process, and that is the source of this information.) All of us appreciate Lowell's help in this difficult time, and would recommend him without hesitation.

Divorce

I recently hired Lowell Friedman of Friedman Law to help me with my divorce. I went into my divorce not knowing what to expect. From the day I met Mr. Friedman, he gave me a very clear explanation of how the process would go and answered any questions I had. Mr. Friedman is an honest, ethical, smart,... diligent attorney. I appreciate how efficient and direct he is – he and his staff always return phone calls and e-mail messages quickly. His office staff is very friendly and helpful. Mr. Friedman had my best interest in mind and helped me get an excellent settlement. I am very satisfied with the results of my case and highly recommend him to anyone. I am so thankful to Mr. Friedman for his dedication and professionalism in finalizing my divorce.

Very pleased.

Attorney Lowell Friedman is the 1st lawyer who I've ever dealt with who under promised & over delivered regarding his legal capabilities which resulted in a favorable outcome to my legal situation. Lowell's legal capabilities are wide-ranging, his knowledge of the legal system is extensive and his... work ethic is beyond reproach. In my case Lowell was given a legal assignment with very little upside potential and managed to obtain the most beneficial of outcomes for myself. Based upon the positive legal outcome that Lowell was able to obtain regarding my legal predicament I would highly recommend him to be hired for your legal needs.

A truly rare Attorney

Lowell is truly a unique attorney; he is talented, intelligent, down to earth, compassionate, and has an excellent grasp of the law, all of these things without being arrogant and/or condescending, as is often the case with highly talented attorneys. I have significant experience with attorneys h...aving worked with many of them, from all types of legal disciplines, throughout my management career. When it came time to find a personal attorney to represent me during my divorce I was more than aware of the disaster that poor representation could cause. Lowell was recommended to me by another attorney that I highly respected. His praise and recommendation was not misplaced. From the first meeting I could tell that Lowell knew what he was doing and that his primary goal was not to run up billing hours but to accomplish the task at hand with the least amount of suffering for both parties. Lowell went about his tasks from a consultive approach and was so effective that my wife replaced her attorney after several weeks because she realized that her attorney was aggressively running up unneeded billing hours. With her new attorney, Lowell was able to bring us to common ground and finalize the divorce in just over four months and for a minimal cost. Lowell's handling of the case saved me at least $50k and more importantly, Lowell and his staff saved my emotional sanity. Not only would I highly recommend Lowell, I have already recommended him. To this date, I have sent three of my friends to him and even my ex-wife uses him as her legal consul (I doubt many attorneys can claim that they are so good that the opposing party switches to them).
