Highly Recommend!!!

Michael Chapski is a true professional in every way! He is calm and in control at all times. He has truly been a pleasure to work with in my post Divorce issues. Even when the opposing side has been difficult and inflammatory, Mr. Chapski sticks to the issues at hand and works to find a resolution in... a timely manner. It is obviously his goal to seek resolutions to issues and unlike other attorney's, he truly respects his clients time and money and does not waste either! I would Highly Recommend Michael Chapski as an attorney!!

True professional

I had a great experience with Mr Chapski. My case went through 4 Judges, 4 law firms and two GAL's. Before hiring Mr. Chapski, my case was going in circles and nothing was being settled; it was nothing but a he said, she said case. Mr. Chapski is a true pro and was instramental in turning my case ar...ound. He doesn't take things personally and he was the only attorney to keep everyone on the same page. I work with top CEO's on a regular basis who work at the biggest companies in world and I would put Mr. Chapski's ethics and morals at the top of most of the biggest business leaders I have worked with. I was lucky to have Mr. Chapski representing me. His ability to get two parties to settle who were not even close after several years in and out of court, is truly remarkable. Mr. Chapski ability to get both sides to calm down and focus on the end game was amazing. He did a great job at focusing on the true issues not the minor issues to settle my case. He could have pushed this case out another year or two but he did not. He was very concerned over the fees I was paying. I have met two attorneys who put the client's first: Jeff Rifken and Mike Chapski. I would highly recommend Mr. Chapski. He is knowledgeable, extremely thorough, thinks outside the box, is very responsive and has his client's best interests in mind. He helped me to get through a very difficult time with compassion and sensitivity.
