When your luck runs out.

Mike represented me after I was hit on my bike by a negligent, inattentive driver. Being a biker himself, there was an easy connection and he possesses the perfect balance between genuine empathy and rational assessment and advice. He made no promises although his predictions about the likely proce...ss and outcomes were always accurate. I was always taken care of and I really felt like I was his priority. His staff, to a person, was exceptionally responsive, kind, and super-competent. I'm fortunate to have had Mike handle my case.

Christine

I contacted Mike Laufenberg looking for help for a friend. Because of the nature of the issue, Mike was not able to help directly but took the time to make several calls to help us find someone who could and without any expectation of getting paid for his time. We are very grateful for all of his he...lp!

Great Lawyers

Mike just wasnt a lawyer, he takes pride in every step of his work. I had questions and he answered them so I would have more of a personal understanding of what was going on. Mike it made it easier with every step and gave myself and family closure and a new start. We are forever grateful for Mike a...nd Dan and will never forget them. Thank you both for everything!!!

Good fortune for me to work with Mike Laufenberg...

I am relatively "gun-shy" when it comes to obtaining legal counsel, the day I met Mike Laufenberg helped subside those feelings. I am highly impressed by Mike and his willingness to help me resolve my personal injury claim. Mike recognized my hesitation to retain counsel and treated me with respe...ct and went the extra mile to put me at ease. I was given multiple options on how to contact him when I had a questions and never left me exasperated. He is truly knowledgable on all facets of a personal injury claim. Sadly for me, Mike decided to pursue a better opportunity with another firm, but I would never begrudge anyone for embracing their expanded opportunities. He provided options for me regarding the pursuit of my claim going forward which impressed me even more. Good Luck to Mike Laufenberg! I would have followed you to your new firm if you would have stayed in my community. You will be at the top of my list to contact for representation should I need counsel in the future. God Bless!!

Dog Bite

I was referred to Mike Laufenberg by another attorney and that recommendation was exactly what I needed. Mike was genuinely committed to my well being and to getting a fair settlement for my case. He was always up front and honest about what was going on with the case and in recommending what he thou...ght was the best "course of action" for my particular case. Mike got me a fair settlement and I will definitely contact him in the future should I ever need legal counsel again.
