Mike is fantastic! Been helping me navigate through my divorce since 2015. Then he opened his own firm & I followed him. Divorce is emotionally & mentally draining not to mention financially & with kids so much more difficult. But with Mike's expertise & knowledge plus he is very understanding patien...ce I got through it.

Great advocate, honest attorney

I retained Mike Hudzik last year & my only regret is not have doing it sooner. I’m very grateful for the support & guidance he provided during his time on the case, he was very insightful & would have answers to questions I haven’t even thought of asking yet. His guidance, advocacy, honesty, & reassu...ring nature makes him a great attorney. He helps rationalize a situation, offers great solutions to mediate a situation, & is one of the most kind & genuine attorneys out there. I never felt my issues went unheard or that my case wasn’t a priority, he was always there to answer questions or address my concerns immediately. I would absolutely recommend Mr. Hudzik to anyone seeking a family law attorney, thank you for everything!

Since my first consultation Michael give me hope, options and understood my needs better than others attorneys I had previously, he gave me more custody of my daughter when I thought it will be never posible, now I can move with my daughter and star our new life, I’m very thankful for his excellent w...ork. Michael always take my calls and resolve my doubts anytime. Thank you Michael so much!!!

Client

Working with Michael Hudzik was great. He assured me along the way, made me feel comfortable and confident in the decisions that I had to make throughout the divorce process. Was always very transparent and would always be conscious of my financial situation and would offer options that might have sa...ved me money towards the end of the process. Very responsive to my questions and emails. Would even respond to text messages that I would send for real quick questions. Was very happy with the work and results that I received from Michael Hudzik. Would recommend him to anyone that was in need of a family law attorney.

Efficient & Knowledgeable

Working with Michael made a very stressful situation, much more calming. His knowledge of family law made me feel safe in my decision making during my divorce and situations that arose afterwords. Seven years after my divorce I have recently had to reach out two times for consulting and Michael was m...ore than happy to help, clearly remembered me as a client and gave me sound and solid advice. Using this firm is a wise choice!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I currently am in the midst two (2) divorce matters in which Mr. Hudzik is the opposing counsel. My respect for his legal acumen is superseded only by his professionalism both inside and outside of the courtroom. I would highly recommend Mr. Hudzik to anyone seeking to hire an attorney in a dissolution of marriage cause of action."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
