General Business / Business litigation

Zack has handled a number of routine and complex real estate transactions for me including a complex multi-bank tax credit financing and lien related matters. He also handled general business litigation matters related to a real estate project and did an excellent job of representing me in every ca...se. I am completely delighted with his capabilities and responsiveness. He is a trusted counsellor and friend.

Best attorney in the area.

Mr. Everitt is intelligent and passionate about his work. He knows the law, is focused, has excellent communication skills and does not pull any punches. At all times I knew what was going on with my case, both best and worst case scenarios. In the courtroom, he is aggressive, but articulate and re...spectful. I highly recommend.

Best Attorney in Gratiot County

Worked hard to give me a fair shot in the court. Hopefully I never have to go back again, but if I do, I know who I'm calling.

Excellent Service in protecting my rights and freedom

My case was unique and difficult but Zack Everitt was able to get it dismissed in a timely manner. He told me a specific amount would be due for his services prior to a trail start date. Although my case required additional actions and responses he stuck to his word and did not charge me any additi...onal fees. When you are forced to protect your rights and freedoms Zack is the attorney you want in your corner. My husband of thirty years died suddenly on our front porch. There was someone else present at the time. I was miles away getting ready to leave on vacation. Yet the police "whom illegally entered our home" tried to charge me with the weed he had. It was so clear that they could not charge my husband because he died so they charged me with position simply to make someone responsible. Zack was able to prove they illegally entered our home and get the case dismissed. It was very difficult time for me and extremely emotional. He was very understanding of what I was going through and cared about making things right for me. I can never thank him and his staff for everything he did for me and my children. You can only imagine how stressful this was when dealing with the death of one parent and the potential jailing of another for my kids. You can trust him to be honest and work hard to do a good job for you. Thanks again to him and his staff.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
