Life-Changing Advocate and Counselor

Mr. Boyle did the impossible with my case. Through fierce advocacy and unsurpassed attention to detail, he took my hopeless situation and secured a rare OWI dismissal. He took the time to get to know me, kept me updated throughout every step of the process, answered all my questions quickly and court...eously, drove all over the state on my behalf, and as a result of his outstanding reputation in the Michigan legal community, convinced my judge and prosecuting attorney to give credence to my side of the story. Retaining Mr. Boyle was without a doubt the best decision I have ever made, and I couldn't recommend him more highly.

Mr. Boyle is an outstanding attorney!

My father retained the services of Mr. Boyle approx 3 months ago for a DUI charge. This was not my fathers first offense and my family was concerned that he would be facing some heavy penalties. To further complicate matters, my father was facing some health issues that required Mr. Boyle to not on...ly communicate with him, but to myself and other family members as well. I was initially worried that it would be difficult for Mr. Boyle to keep everyone updated and on the same page throughout the case. I was mistaken. During the approx 3 months that it took for my father to recieve his sentencing, Mr. Boyle proved to be organized, knowledgeable, and a very efficient communicator. It was hard to express into words how pleased my family is with the representation we recieved from Mr. Boyle. My father initially faced the possibility of felony charges. With the help of Mr. Boyle, he pleaded to a very favorable charge. Without getting to specific, there were many factors to this case. Mr. Boyle expertly took into consideration my family's wishes and my fathers health and, in my opinion, achieved the best possible outcome for all parties involved. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend the services of Mr. Boyle. Upon delivering the terms of my father's favorable sentencing, the judge stated "Mr Boyle did a fine job for you sir. Nice job." When the judge compliments your lawyer, you hired the right lawyer.

Michael J. Boyle Powerful

Michael J. Boyle is a great lawyer, but further more a great human being. Not knowing what would await for me as I would in fact hire my first lawyer, I was definitely nervous. I didn't know what to expect other than what I would hear and see on the T.V, and from hearing several discouraging stories... from friends and family members about their experience. Would my lawyer do what was best for me or best for them? Would my lawyer treat my case as if it was their only? and will they invest the time and attention to insure that I was comfortable throughout the entire experience? These were just some of the questions that I had in my mind. However, once I met Michael all of the thoughts, questions, and concerns were erased. Michael is a professional who does more than his job he is an expert in making sure that each one of his clients are taken care of, and makes sure that they are successfully positioned to having a healthy and powerful life during and after the case they are currently in. I was scared, concerned, and distraught in thinking about the implications my case would have on my life, however Michael interacted with me in a way that just simply made those thoughts seem unreasonable. He not only made sure I was informed in every step of the case, but he gave me the power to do what was best for me. He managed every facet of the case with complete mastery and thoroughly succeeded in making sure that the outcome of the case was one that would be best for me no matter what our options were. By the time my case was complete I could care less about what the end result would be, Michael had done such a good job in preparing for the case that every conclusion seemed like a great option. His complete mastery of preparing for the case coupled with his team Michael truly made my experience an enjoyable one. With Michael Boyle you will get much more than what you pay for. He has the contacts, he has the knowledge, he has the strategy, but most of all he has an integrity that is so strong it out shines any of the doubt you may have. At the end of the day Michael J. Boyle is Powerful. He will go to war for you and with you, however, you must be sure you are ready to match what he brings to the table. He is a straight shooter who doesn't sugar coat the reality or nature of the case, however his art in delivering all the facts of the case is one that will leave you feeling empowered and knowledgable. If you are looking for a Lawyer who is trustworthy, if you are looking for a lawyer who will do what it takes to successfully get you the outcome you want for your case, if you are looking for a Lawyer who will fight for you, and if you are looking for a Lawyer who will lay it all on the line to see their client happy and successful then you are looking for Michael J. Boyle. Powerful.

The best I have seen

If you need legal help I would highly suggest Michael Boyle. He completely exceeded all expectations. When I first charged with owi and leaving the scene my outlook was grim. I travel for work and need a valid drivers license. I was so depressed and down on my luck over this. I was told and told to s...tay positive by Mike as he worried about my case. He was in contact with me weekly as progress was made. His office handeled everything. He went as far as to come to the scence of the stop take measurements, pictures everything! Not only did I keep my license I served no additional time. He is the most dedicated and best lawyer I have ever seen. Don't think twice when hiring Mike. Everything is riding on it.

More than just an Excellent Lawyer, Mike is a friend who will listen..

Dear Mike, I have thought long and hard on how I wanted to thank you for a job well done. You might think that because we did not win the case out right, that we did not win. On the contrary, my Lord has won the victory. You see, the outcome of the case is exactly what I needed for me ...to appreciate, how far I had strayed from my God. And through these circumstances, which brought me back home to Him, and back into His fellowship, I now have the 'Peace' that was so elusive, for so long. In my heart, it was the judgement that I needed the most. Mike, I want to thank you first and foremost for your friendship. We have spent many hours together discussing my issues of the case and because of your calm demeanor this went a long ways in quelling my fears and my anxieties. Your thoughtfulness and understanding inspired me to seek the brightest side possible. The outcome of the case coud have been much worse than what it turned out to be. Your Professionalism in the court room and your personal skills with your peers, be they, Prosecuting Attorney, Law Enforcemment Officers, the Judge and especially the Jurors, went a long way in getting me the outcome that I am quite pleased with. Your personal testimony spoke volumes of who you are as a person and as an advocate for those that are in need of your services as an 'Attorney' at Law. Because of this, I can now move on with my life, to follow the path that my Lord has set before me, to be a witness to those, of the cost, that bad decisions will always have a price associated with them. Even now during my counseling sessions with Ms.--- , and the young people that are attending her classes, I can speak bodly and with clarity of the consequences that will be taken if they follow down this course, that is so destructive. I now have a second chance to live my life as never before and you have gone a long way in restoring my Faith. I would also like to take this time to thank the staff at your Law Firm, especially Melissa for keeping me up to date with my scheduled appointments. You, Melissa, have made my trying times during this ordeal much more bearable. With your kind voice, your words of comfort and with your emails that were right on the mark, easy to understand and so forthright with much Honesty thrown in for good measure. In closing I would like to tell "All' that are associated with the 'Barone Defense Firm' that they are very fortunate to have both of you working with them. May God Bless You All, Sincerely, ---
