Mr. Brandt is a very kind, intelligent person that takes the time to review records and give advice. Good advice! I put alot of faith in Mr. Brandt. Not only as a lawyer but a good man. He took the time to handle a transcript reading and put together a summary to the transcript while he was away and out of town!! Not to many attorneys would take the time to do that!! He is someone I can believe in for my son and his future!! I would totally recommend Micheal Brandt for someone to treat you right.

3-X
I was charged with 3 class X felony's , and seriously was scared I was going to prison for a long time or even worse , dead. For something I didn't do but was hard to prove. Me Brandt saved my life. In my eyes, there's no way to repay him for keeping me a free man. He's one of the best. I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Michael Brandt to represent anyone. Thank you Michael Brandt for my life back.

Phenomenal Attorney
Michael Brandt is the most knowledgeable and well respected lawyer I have ever met. He gave me options, advice, and what to expect during my case. I never once felt or believed for one moment he wasn't fighting for me as to secure the best possible outcome. I am very grateful. His experience alone is worth at least a consultation.
