The Best Outcome

Mike was amazing from day 1 through the entire process, explaining all options, keeping constant communication, personally working the case, negotiating with the prosecutor and making sure we were in the best position possible for the outcome we wanted. His industry experience, reputation and knowle...dge of every aspect of the law, as well as his respect within the Michigan court system gave me confidence that I had the best representation. The result was better than I could have imagined. Very grateful for Mike & the Nichols Law Firm.

Well prepared and thorough

Mike was always incredibly prepared, and very thorough. Not only with his paperwork, and documentation, (which the judge expressed his gratitude for) but with everything he needed me to do on my end as well. He also offered an education into what I was faced with, and was insightful the whole way thr...ough the process. As a result, I am only a restricted man, not an incarcerated man. Which, from my understanding is rare at my district court. And even though facing jail time is always very nerve racking, he always talked me through it with keeping my expectations right where the needed to be. This way I was more correctly aligned with the reality of the possible outcome instead of feeling to negative about the outcome, or to positive about the it. Thanks Mike!

Amazing Service

Mr. Nichols was working alongside me 24/7, never leaving me out in the blue without not knowing what was going on. He communicated with me everything he got ahold of as soon as he did. He listened to me and made sure I knew he did. He believed in me and was able to get results quickly. Before him, I ...called three other offices for a consultation of my case, and none of them showed interest like Mr. Nichols did. I would definitely recommend Mr. Nichols to anyone and everyone who is looking for legal representation. I admired his work ethic and his commitment to getting results.

Professional and effective

I needed legal representation and my neighbor recommended Mike Nichols. Mike was able to meet with me immediately and gave me honest answers with potential outcomes of my situation. He never gave me false hope and I was treated with respect in every meeting. Mike is very impressive in the courtroom a...nd is able to get the desired results through his tactful nature and honest tone. I will recommend Mike to anyone that has legal issues he has really mastered his craft.

Exceptional Attorney

If you want an assertive, no-nonsense attorney who will fight for you to the best of his ability, who will dedicate his early mornings, late nights and weekends to your case, who will dig until he finds answers, who will do his utmost best to counsel you, represent you, and speak on your be...half, when necessary, who will work tirelessly to achieve results, hire Mike Nichols. Mike is not only a driven, determined and skilled attorney, but also a compassionate and empathetic one - why else an expert criminal defense attorney would take a civil case of a family desperate to get their puppy back after it was taken from a vet clinic without the owners’ consent? A very straightforward attorney (I hear it’s a trait not often observed among many attorneys), Mike told us right away that our case was not in his area of expertise, but that he was willing to learn throughout the process and was committed to doing everything in his power to get our dog back. And that’s exactly what he did - Mike delivered on his commitments. Understanding how emotional the situation was for us and our kids, Mike made sure he kept us updated on the progress and stayed in touch with us on a daily basis, and I don’t mean during his work hours. It didn’t matter what time of day it was, or what day of the week; if Mike was in his office, or at home, or driving in his car, or on his way to dinner, or trying to get away for a day to hit the slopes, if he had any new updates, discoveries, clues or information that was brought to his attention, he made sure we were made aware of it. Understanding the urgency of our situation, Mike moved fast, involving members of his team, when necessary, to get things done as soon as possible. When our case went from ridiculous to more so, Mike immediately filed for emergency injunction-a move that forced the defendants to finally reveal the location and condition of our puppy through a court order. When a third party appeared to be involved, Mike instantly subpoenaed the witness and had a member of his team deliver the subpoena that same night. On the day of the hearing, Mike cleared his entire daily schedule to make sure he was there to fight for us no matter how long it took. He was determined to deliver on his commitment-he was going to get our puppy back, and so he did. How do you express your gratitude to someone, who makes the seemingly impossible happen? Without Mike’s intervention, his knowledge, his expertise and his commitment, we would have never gotten our dog back. From our personal experience with Mike and his team-if you want results, hire Mike. His services are worth every penny, and you will have no regret. As my husband simply put it-when it comes to Mike Nichols, you just don't want to be on the other side of the aisle.
