Amazing Attorney
Michael Gravlin handled my person injury case after I was injured in a car accident. Mr. Gravlin was professional, attentive, and diligent throughout the entire process. Mr. Gravlin and his law office staff returned all of my phone calls immediately. I was never confused about the status of my case. He fought for my case with the insurance company aggressively and obtained a large settlement offer that I could not refuse. I felt confident that my case was handled exceptionally well from start to finish. You will not regret your decision to hire Michael Gravlin as your attorney!

Tough case
Mr.Gravlin will 5 star across the board . !Trusted Smart,aggressive,no nonsense type of attorney that understands me as not a client but a person . His staff is incredible, professional and all manners . He's better then Horwitz and other so called Super Attorneys that look at you as a pay check and not as a human being with financial responsibilities and families . I recommend him to all my family and friends for all legal situations . I thank him for taking on my very difficult case and being such a hardworking attorney.

Injury case with Rosecrance in Rockford
I will have to continue to write a negative review annually about you. Due to my son's pain he is in. 30k for a 3C disc replaced and more was not enough to cover his life long injury. You were so dishonest to me it was a shame. You told me how much you cared for your children, yet you did not about mine. Sorry you are not a good attorney. Did your wife want a new car for Christmas that year??
