Michael James Magana

5 to 99 years that is what my family was facing. It is hard to put our gratitude in writing for what Mr Magana did for my husband. Mr. Magana not only accepted my husband as a client but was also considerate towards his client's family. Each and everytime we, my husband and I both, called or tex...t him he never failed to return the call in the sixteen months he fought for us in and out of court. Mr. Magana met with us even when there were no new news. He lifted us up when we were ready to give up. Mr. Magana's passion for justice is imminent in the way he fight for his clients. We not only saw this passion during my husband's actual trial but in other clients' court hearing I was allowed to attend. Although the prosectors fought hard to convict an innocent man, my husband, Mr. Magana fought harder to prove his innocence. He did this not by coaching or rehearsing but by allowing witnesses to testify in their own words with what they can remember. I highly recommend Mr. Magana for his professionalism, his passion and his knowledge of the law. Most of all Mr. Magana's compassion for his client and the family during a difficult time. Thank you, thank you and THANK YOU, Mr. Magana. Because of your perseverance in my husband's case, my husband received a NOT GUILTY VERDICT from ALL twelve jurors. Thank you for not allowing the system separate an innocent man from his wife and a father from his children. We will be forever grateful. TO GOD BE THE GLORY for assigning you this case.

My friend was facing 5-99 years in prison. Regardless of the preponderance of evidence that proved he DID NOT commit the crime, an over zealous prosecutor still used tax payer dollars to pursue a guilty verdict, with absolutely no regard of how her UNETHICAL behavior would impact this family, their f...riends and our entire community. She was only concerned about "WINNING" and was willing to do WHATEVER it took to make that happen. BUT GOD.... In spite, of the prosecution twisting evidence, coaching witnesses, misapplying the law, imploring intimidation tactics against the defendants witnesses in order to create fear and blatantly disregarding constitutional rights. JUSTICE PREVAILED, MICHAEL MAGANA PREVAILED... GOD PREVAILED. God specifically selected Michael Magana to slay this Goliath. Thank you so much MIKE because you and your law firm was the vessel used to save this family from separation and possible destruction This ENTIRE week, I personally witnessed how Mr. Magana worked FIERCELY to protect his client and did so by upholding his moral principles and complying with the true intent of the law. He consistently objected when necessary and strategically outwitted his OVER CONFIDENT opponent who did EVERYTHING she could to undermine the law. Even to the degree of committing perjury and obstructing justice. Through Mr. Magana's tenacious and unwavering defense to protect his client, the jury rendered a "NOT GUILTY" verdict. I highly recommend Mr. Magana for his superior criminal defense as a TRIAL LAWYER and would nominate him as a candidate to receive the highested accolateds and honors of a "Super Lawyer!" Thank you Mr. Magana may God continue to bless you and your entire firm.

My opinion is that Michael is a wonderful lawyer. He absolutely gets the job done. My son had a bond of $250,00, and he had it reduced to $50,000, then bonded him out. I would recommend him to anyone that's been told "no" or "that there is nothing that could be done", because Mike can and will ge...t it done.

i hired him and all he did was joke around and play like we were in High school. He offered to trade services for construction work on one of his rentals but i refused and just paid cash. His staff is a staff of idiots who could never answer my questions. When we finally went to court he needed 3 oth...ers to help him stumble through the proceedings. Needless to say I lost! What a joke he should be disbarred! A bumbling bafoon who is better off working at Wal Mart. I am surprised he ever was able to get a license to practice law, guess they will give one to anyone who applies.

I hired Michael to represent my fiance in a probation reinstatement case. Michael cashed my check the day they got it; he visited my fiance 1 time for ten minutes when he walked out of the room he stated 'im going to get you reinstated and on your way back home". Never did my fiance see him again unt...il a month later at court. During this month period whenever we would try to get an update on the case nothing; nobody would call back; and his office staff are idiots. When i asked for him to go see my fiance he didnt. My Fiance is now sitting 4 years in a state prison because Michael hadnt even talked to the DA to plead his case...the DA was aiming for 20 years...the judge decided 4! DO NOT HIRE HIM!
