Great Attorney

Bar None he is the best attorney for a pardon in the state. He is honest hardworking and will not give up. The first time in front of the board in March 2016 was a 1-3 vote against my case. The second time in front of the board in February 2018 was a unanimous decision in favor of a pardon, I cannot ...thank Michael and Nidia and the whole staff enough for everything. They will forever have my deepest gratitude. Would not recommend any other attorney. You will not regret hiring him.

The only lawyer to hire if you are seeking a pardon

If you are wanting to file for a pardon Michael Risley is the attorney you want to hire. The application that has to be filled out and filed is overwhelming, you want Michael and his staff doing this for you. I knew going in after my consult I had a 50/50 chance because of an old case (over 20 year...s old) that was considered violent. I am happy to report I received my pardon!!!

Michael Risley is a rockstar.

I have worked with a few lawyers in my past, never anyone as awesome and hardworking as Mr. Risley. I contacted him for deregistration back in 2014, it's been a hectic and stressful 3 years, but as of today I have won my case. Mr. Risley has worked hard, been amazingly polite and straight forward... with me the entire time. He has always responded to my emails in a very timely manner. Answering all of my questions, no matter how stupid they were at times. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a hard working, professional, nice, all around amazing lawyer.

Be Very Patient

I hired Mr Risley in 2014 and to no avail my first attempt was turned down, I own that mistake. Mr Risley was very forthcoming in his work and took the bull by the horns in round 2, he has a very strong court room professional attitude and the pardon board responds to him very well. As of to Date my ...pardon was "recommended" by the board and I'm awaiting the approval from our fine Governor Mary Fallon. any other Attorney is a waste of time and money, Michael Risley is your man for the job!!!! thank you, Robert
