He is awesome!!!

Mr. Igwe helped me with my divorce. Although, my friends and family told me that filing a divorce petition myself was an easier and a less expensive option, I was very nervous and stressed with the process. When I found Mr. Igwe, I didn't know what to expect, but, I found him to be very professional,... humble, and diligent in providing me with the best services. He captured my attention, because, his personality is not one of an attorney but more of a trusted friend. He is like a friend who just so happens to be an attorney. He's great!! I was able to confide in him about my worries and concerns. Overall, he provided me with his best. I appreciate him for his time, and even referred him to my friends for their legal issues. Also, another thing I absolutely love about him is.....he return calls promptly and is always available to answer questions and give me the best legal advice. In my opinion, he is the best attorney in Dallas.

Excellent and Personable Attorney

Michael has been my attorney for over 8 years and has helped me with a criminal charge, immigration and a business issue. He goes over and above the call of duty, when I was arrested after bailing me out of jail he waited to make sure I got out safely. I read the previous review of the person who s...aid he was rude and think he/she mistook his jovial attitude for rudeness. He is extremely professional, however; he is not the 'stereotypical attorney' who is all about business without a smile or joke. I can always count on Mr Igwe to answer his phone or at least return my phone call if he is predisposed. I would use his services again if there is ever a need.

Outstanding Immigration Attorney

Mr. Igwe represented me from 2008 to 2010 when i was facing deportation due to some immigration complications. He was very professional and helpful. He won my case and i was granted my permanent residence (green card) for Ten years. I am so thankful to Mr Igwe for his expertise.

My Horrible Experience

Michael Igwe was recommended to my mom by a "friend" I went to see him for assistance with an immigration matter. He was EXTREMELY rude and cruel for no reason. His tone was terrible. Right away he said "you owe me 86.50 just for meeting with me" this was before he helped me with anything. Then when ...I asked if he would like to make copies of my documents he said "What am I, your secretary?" He then asked me f I had consulted other attorneys and when I told him of one, he sked how much is he charching you?" I said 2500 and he said "M.J is charging 2500 for this? Hee laughed and said, I wouldnt bother with anyone like you for anything less than 4,000" I left his office running and crying. He has never apologized. Ignored a voicemail and email that I sent. Anyway, God is good and someone else assisted with my issue. I will NEVER forget how nasty and rude this Michael Igwe was.
