Alan Ackerman's Lawyer Endorsements
"Alan is Michigan's preeminent eminent domain attorney representing property owners. The first time I met Alan, he came to speak to my law school class about eminent domain. His obvious passion for this area of law sparked my interest. A few years later, my very first lawsuit as a lawyer was an eminent domain case against Alan's firm. Over the course of the last 17 years, we have handled many matters against each other. Alan is always a gentleman and he is nothing short of a fierce advocate for his clients. He knows this area of law better than anyone and that's why he gets consistent results for his clients."
"Alan Ackerman and Darius Dynkowski have unequaled experience in handling eminent domain matters in Michigan, Ohio and throughout the United States. I am not aware of anybody who has obtained better results for property owners faced with takings by governmental agencies or utility companies."
"I endorse this lawyer's work."
