This lawyer will fight for you.

If you need an aggressive lawyer that will fight to see you win… if you feel lost and are naive to what’s going on… if you crave competence like your future depends on it- then do yourself a favor and hire Michael Conroy. Literally the best in the business. Professional. Strategic. The most trusted p...erson I have ever had the pleasure of hiring. Always ready and prepared. Always dependable. Family law finally gets justice in your favor. A single mom or dad’s best friend. I hired him for a domestic abuse and custody case. I wish I could give more stars then 5.

Dedicated, Motivated, Very Professional

Mr. Conroy is an incredible attorney with an extraordinary team of professionals in his office as well. My case was a very critical case, involving my 1 year old grandson.

The Attorney Who Fought for My Family Like It Was His Own

Michael D. Conroy is hands down one of the best attorneys you could ever have in your corner. I came to him during one of the most difficult and emotional times of my life — fighting for custody of my son. From day one, Mr. Conroy was professional, compassionate, sharp, and fully invested in my ca...se. He took the time to listen, gave me honest and clear legal guidance, and built a strong case that truly reflected what was best for my child. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, I was granted sole custody. It was a huge legal victory and a deeply personal one. Mr. Conroy fought for me like it was his own family, and I will be forever grateful. If you’re looking for a lawyer who knows the law, truly cares about your outcome, and will not back down when it matters most — Michael D. Conroy is the one you want. Thank you, Mr. Conroy, for helping me bring my son home. And I have to shout out his amazing paralegal as well — she was responsive, kind, organized, and always made sure I knew what was happening every step of the way. She truly made me feel supported and prepared throughout the entire process.

Very professional!

I recently hired Mr Conroy and he helped me through a very difficult time. He was professional, astute and knowledgeable. I had a court case for the custody of my daughter and he represented me very well even though we didn’t have much time to prepare. He was great in the courtroom and his compete...nce calmed me down and we won the custody battle. Thank you Mr Conroy!!!!

This man saved my family

After 5 years of fighting with my ex husband and ex MIL out of court I finally forced their hand and took my children back. Then i was blindsided by an exparte by my ex MIL trying to take my kids from me and spread lies about me to the court and the judge. She went after my character she went below t...he belt and fought dirty. But when I found Michale Conroy i was a mess, I had no knowledge of what to do or where to start. This nice wonderful man sat me down and explained to me what we could do and what we should do. He guided me and told me to be strong. He never made me feel I was going to lose or that what was happening to me wasnt crazy or right. He was so kind to me and gave me the confidence I needed to face that person in court and win back my children. Even if it was a very strange case he never gave up on me. Took my calls whenever I had a question or concern. He is a wonderful attorney who stood up for me when I didn't know how to. I would highly recommend this man to anyone who needs a extraordinary educated lawyer who has an in-depth knowledge of our local perishes and knows the law and your rights. He will fight hard for you. Hire this man and his staff because they treated me like I was the only client even though I knew I wasn't. 10/10

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.
