Michael Joseph Randazzo's Lawyer Endorsements
"I had the opportunity to work opposite Mr. Randazzo in a criminal matter. Mr. Randazzo is diligent, thoughtful, and easy to work with. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I met Michael when he was an assistant prosecutor in Crawford County. He was always well prepared, informed on the law, and good in a court room. The thing that impressed me more was his respect for opposing counsel, and his ability to balance the competing interest and find a reasonable end result for both sides. He knows when to stand his ground, and when to understand when the wind is blowing in his face, and he just had a bad set of facts with which to work. My time observing him tells me he will always aggressively represent his clients, while also doing the right thing, and it will be done in a respectful way."
"I endorse this lawyer. Fantastic attorney. Great with his clients. Willing to go the extra mile to get the results that his clients deserve but other attorneys aren't willing to work for. I trust Mr. Randazzo, and so should you."
"With Michael's prior experience as a prosecutor, he has an insight to criminal defense that not all lawyers possess. I wholeheartedly endorse Mike."
"Mike was my Assistant Prosecuting Attorney in Crawford County. He displayed courtroom skills that never shown by attorneys his age and that are seldom observed in the profession in general. I have been practicing law for a long time, as a prosecuting attorney and Circuit Judge and Mike made me look like a genius for my four years."

"I endorse Attorney Randazzo. He is an excellent attorney with a unique perspective because of his previous experience with the State."
