Not only practices the law but lives the law...

I had previously never required the services of an attorney within this scope of practice therefor the entire process was all new for me. Mick took the time to explain in great depth and detail all aspects of what was going to take place regarding my particular legal situation. He has always been v...ery professional yet genuinely caring and concerned for my well being. He also explained all of the many processes of what would take place as well as what I could expect along the way. Mick and his staff were very prompt in returning my telephone calls and most of all they were always very supportive and understanding of my entire situation. I did a lot of research prior to making a decision as to the attorney that would be best suited for myself and my individual case. I am very pleased to say I made the right decision when choosing Mick Mickelsen to represent me. To say he is one of Dallas's "Super Lawyers" is most definitely an understatement. Mick not only "practices" law he "lives" the law... by his sense of caring, compassion, and genuine concern for his clients best interest. When making the decision to use this attorney for your legal representation you are going to get an attorney who genuinely cares regarding the outcomes of his clients legal issues and does not simply practice law for the monetary benefit. Mick lives the oath he took upon passing the bar each and every day. If you are looking for the best in the DFW area then I strongly suggest you meet face to face with Mick Mickelsen prior to making your final decision. Should I ever require this type of legal representation again it is good to know Mick is there. He truly sets the benchmark by which many other attorneys which practice in this particular field of law should be measured by.

Amazing and Knowledgable A+ LAWYER

I would highly recommend this law office and Mick Mickelsen. He was very professional and knew his business and the law. He represented me in an ICE investigation that even with his doubts stuck by me and we essentially WON this case. Overall hour charge was WORTH every penny for his professionalis...m and quick contact. If in need, call MICK first
