Great lawyer!!!

Mr. Heilman took on my case for my brother when the other lawyer didn't want to deal with it. Mike went above and beyond for my family. He's tough in the courtroom and knows how to put up a good fight. My family and I are really happy with the results for Mr. Heilmann's performance. Thank you Mik...e for everything.

Phenomenal results

Mr. Heilmann took on our medical malpractice case at the 11th hour and managed to secure a very nice settlement that will go a long way toward paying for ongoing medical care. He and his staff showed a high level of care, professionalism and determination throughout the process. We are so grateful fo...r his expertise and the outcome, and we recommend him highly.

Fantastic Lawyer

Mr. Heilmann took over my case when another attorney was not performing to my satisfaction. He put my faith back into the legal profession as he is a very kind, loyal, honest attorney who goes the extra mile to win your case. I would highly recommend him.

Great Lawyer!

I struggled with injuries related to an out-of-state auto accident for over 18 months until I finally found a surgeon willing to listen to me and my symptoms: diagnosis 2 broken vertebrea and crushed disc amongst other internal injuries. With that diagnosis in-hand, I decided it was time to hire an ...attorney. Michael was recommended by a local attorney for his expertise in dealing with both Michigan and Florida injury suits. He was very open up-front about the potential journey that may be the result of filing an out-of-state claim and how long it could take. Fortunately, he was able to effectively negotiate with the at-fault party's insurance company armed with the diagnosis and details of the circumstances and was able to settle for the full covered amount in only a few months! He is now working on settlements for my family members also impacted in the same accident. Would highly recommend him!

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.
