Michael James Granzeier

Even a Judge for a lawyer did not help; SoS/DLAD is not a courtroom. 'Fairness' or 'reality' doesn't exist here. Having completely changed my life, I was in a major surprise when I found myself revoked (while working with previous attorney & on restricted for > 5yrs). A two-time college graduate, wit...h honors, who earned a position with a global company: it was obvious to others that my life had completely changed, but not obvious to SoS until I knew how to present it. Mike Granzeier knows exactly how to get in the details in a way they will matter. He provides you with a clear list of action items, ordering them based on impact/criticality. When I had questions, he promptly responded, even multiple times per day when necessary. He faithfully put in weekend & late evening hours while on a tight timeline. Mike is very detail-orientated, which is an absolute necessity with SoS! Going through my documentation, he ensured there were no errors. Innocent mistakes could have been enough to deny me, but he caught them. Mike is honest & direct. Instead of telling you that you are going to win, he offers vast amounts of examples of his prior cases. When discussing a scenario, Mike will give you a subjective opinion, but not without labeling it as such. With the amount of experience he has in DLAD, it is like opening an encyclopedia of DLAD processes & outcomes. He is the guy you want on your team; he is passionate about what he does, & has the will to win. You would think that changes that are proven through major life accomplishments would be enough, but it's not. You will need to work very hard & have someone next to you who works even harder. It took almost losing everything to find this attorney. May you find him sooner. I am happy to say that I have a full unrestricted license & will never have to see DLAD again! Getting no where with the State in years, it took merely weeks to get everything back with this attorney.

Mr. Granzeier was hired to help me appeal my Michigan Drivers License revocation appeal to the Secretary of State this spring, 2014. He assured me that if I was truthful, thorough and followed his advice to the letter we had a good chance. We succeeded. Despite several warnings of fellows in AA wh...o have been through the appeal process not to get my hopes up, we won on the first appeal. Throughout the process Mr. Granzeier was very concise and made sure all of my documentation was exactly as it should be for this hearing. He was uncompromising , very informative and shared his experience with me to great effect. He took the time to make sure I was clear on all manners of speaking before the hearing. He provided excellent support during the hearing when I needed it. He kept in contact with me afterwards and has provided excellent followup information for my time under restricted driving privileges. I will certainly be calling him again when it is time to appeal for an unrestricted license.

Mike Granzeier is an excellent lawyer. He was recommended by a friend, a lawyer himself who told me he would get the job done and he did. He delivered what he stated keeping me informed at all times. No hidden fees and straight forward. He made me comfortable at all times. Always responding in a... timely manner. I was told by the judge in court that he had never seen a better written brief. I have recommended him to several friends and co-workers. I never regretted writing him a check. He is professional and excellent to work with. I highly recommended his services.
