Guardianship/Adoption Creek Nation Tribal Court

He is very professional. He answers every single question I have and makes sure i understand everything going on. He has gone above and beyond what i expected. He always returns my calls within 24 hours and does everything in a timely manner. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. He took my ca...se when no one else would and we WON!

Helped when no one else would

We hired Mike to help with a custody battle. He was able to get my daughter out of an abusive situation. Every other attorney we spoke with had told us it would be impossible. Luckily, fate brought us to Mike. After hearing the details of my daughter's situation, he said he would do everythin...g he could to help her. Two months later, my daughter is finally home and her multi-year ordeal has ended. Mike was professional, courteous and personable. His help was worth every penny. He will forever have the gratitude of my entire family.

Pleasant, polite but passive

He is a very nice and caring person.  Though a tough case from the onset, his presentation skills were not what was required to carry the case.  I believe he could have been more assertive in the courtroom environment.  I also question his billing to some extent.   I believe he charged for more time ...than he utilized including charging to compile a final statement to insure the retainer was completely depleted.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
