Great Experience!

I had never hired a lawyer before and wasn't sure what steps I needed to take. I called the office of Michael Busby and spoke with Julie, the paralegal, who helped me tremendously. Mr. Busby was very professional but explained everything to me in layman's terms since I was inexperienced with this sor...t of situation. I was going through a messy divorce which included me trying to get custody of my son. After only a few short months, we were in court and my soon to be ex was getting drug tested, at Mr. Busby's request. Everything that I expected to happen did, and alot faster than I have heard others going through in my same situation. Today, I am proud to say that I am happily divorced and have custody of my son!! Thank you to Mr. Busby and Julie Sanchez for making my experience the best it possibly could have been. I will forever be thankful for the outcome of my case and would definitely recommend their services to anyone in need.

Got me exactly what he promised

I was in a relationship with a possessive man for about 7 years. He was very conservative and old fashioned. We started dating in our early twenties. As the relationship started to sour, he forced me out of our residence and kept all of my belongings, because he was not getting his way. In the en...d, I got most of my belongings back, undamaged and I got my freedom. Mike stated that most of us (men) are possessive and selfish and do not see it, until we turn 40. He admitted most women are smarter than men, but put in a disclaimer that men adjust as they age, and become much more considerate of those close to them. Divorce is not a good thing, but neither is being in a relationship where the couple does not communicate as a team anymore. Mike broke the relationship down to 1. Finances, 2. Romance 3. Parenting 4. Physical relationship (sex) and 5. Chores and Duties, fortunately I had no children with my ex. The divorce took over 1 year, as a result of the games my ex played in the courts. In the end, it was bitter sweet, winning some hearings and loosing others. Mike knows the system, and is not a miracle man, but he is prepared and ready to present your case, in the best light.

An Amazing Attorney

I hired Mr. Busby in February of 2014 for my divorce. From the first day of meeting with Mr. Busby he was professional and informative. He took time to explain the details of my divorce and what to expect. As most people know, legal wording can be very difficult to understand, however Mr. Busby took... time to answer all of my many questions. Prior, to my first court appearance Mr. Busby debriefed with me and allowed me to even watch a video that his office provides, so I would know what to expect. My ex-wife's lawyer was very unorganized and unprepared, however Mr. Busby remained calm. Michael Busby is very thorough and pointed out mistakes made by my ex wife's lawyer on several occasions. The process of my divorce was drawn out, because of the lack organization on the opposing side, however Mr. Busby and his staff went the extra mile in always keeping me informed about court dates and other information. Mr. Busby always had encouraging words and supported me when I felt stressed about the divorce. It is not common for men to win in messy custody battles, however with the help of Mike Busby, I was able to win primary guardianship over my son. Hiring Michael Busby was the best decision I could have made. Throughout my divorce Mr. Busby and his staff treated me just like family. I greatly appreciate him and his staff!

Good experience with Mike

I hired Mike and his staff for a divorce. I had a business with my husband for 10 years. My husband spent large sums of money on women and drinking. Mike was able to trace the amount that my husband spent and get the judge to give me a larger share of the business. It turned out to be about 65 to 35 ...in my favor. Mike is a good trial lawyer. I will give him that, sometimes he is vulgar in his analogies but still a good attorney.

TRUSTING CARING AND HONEST WHAT ELSE CAN YOU ASK FOR!

MIKE BUSBY IS MY LAWYER IN A FAMILY LAW CASE.MY CASE IS VERY COMPLICATED..FROM THE VERY START HE ALWAYS LISTENED TO MY CONCERNS AND GAVE THE BEST ADVICE TO ME. MANY TIMES I FELT LIKE GIVING UP OR FRUSTRATED AT THE THINGS HAPPENING BUT I WAS ALWAYS ABLE TO CONTACT HIM ON HIS CELL TO DISCUSE THE ISSUES... I HAD. HE ALWAYS TOLD THE TRUTH AS TO WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AND I FEEL AS HE WAS TRUELY ON MY SIDE NOT JUST WORKING FOR THE MONEY. HIRING MIKE AFTER 2 1/2 YEARS OF DOING SUPERVISED VISITS WITH MY SON AND GETTING NO WHERE WITH THE OTHER LAWYER. IMMEDIATELY HE FILED A MOTION TO MODIFY VISITATION AND GOT THE JUDGE TO GIVE ME A STEPUP PROGRAM AND NOW I AM THE PRIMARY CARETAKER. STILL NOT DONE WITH EVERYTHING I WANT DONE YET BUT I AM VERY PLEASED WITH WHAT HAS BEEN DONE AND I'M SURE WHEN EVERYTHING IS FINIAL I WILL BE AS PLEASED AS I AM TODAY! THANKS MIKE FOR YOUR HELP
