Excellent lawyer

By far the most excellent lawyer I’ve ever delt with. He will not let you down in the courtroom. I highly recommend Michael Danforth for civil and divorce cases.

Disrespectful and unprofessional

This man does not listen, I had to tell him repeatedly what I wanted and how I wished to handle my divorce case and he literally yelled at me. I wanted a simple divorce in which my ex and I had already agreed on what we were dividing but he was no help whatsoever. He was only interested in prolongi...ng the case and charge me more money. He claims to be a Christian and his Wife to be a former pastor at Willow Creek church but doesn’t fit the profile at all. He was disrespectful and unresponsive, I would not recommend him to anyone and he should not be a trustee on the lake county board.
