Double trouble but Mike got them both dismissed

I was originally charged with assault and talked with Mike about my case and hired him immediately. He was reassuring but honest the whole way. Amazingly, to me anyway, we were able to get a deferment as long as I stayed out of trouble and followed the few simulations that they had on the list, and t...o my pleasure, I DID NOT have to admit any guilt. Well I unfortunately found trouble again 6 months later when I was stopped for a DUI - Second. Again Mike came in and with honesty and support we fought through it. And with his exceptional people skills in and outside the courtroom, knowledge of the judicial process and laws, he was able to get BOTH cases dismissed fully. I will be hiring Mike down the road to expunge them both (Assault - Fam and DUI 2nd) from my record. I could not recommend a better attorney for anyone that wants a true professional that will work to try and get you the best outcome possible. I never thought I would be in this much trouble so when it happened I never thought I would get out of it. My whole life was crumbling around me but through Mike's skills, my life is back on track.

Extraordinary Lawyer! SAVED MY LIFE & FUTURE!

I was undergoing an extremely difficult, life-threatening case. I had researched a few lawyers, before making my decision. Most of the lawyers did not presumably have the skill set that Mr. Trent possessed. Once hired, Mr. Trent never ceased to amaze me. Yes, of course, I was worried. I lost hours of... sleep and went without meals once in a while -due to stress. Michael Trent did everything in his power to combat these feelings and emotions, attempting to reassure me everything was and would be okay. I trusted him and knew that he was capable of getting the best outcome for me -for which he did. Any time, day or night (even one late night), he was only a phone call or message away. He kept me up-to-date with all the information and explained the strategic process along the way. Michael has experience on both sides of the law, which was a benefit to the both of us. It is as though you're playing a chess game, with the availability to know how your opponent thinks and moves. At one point, my case was re-indicted. Michael went out of his way to secure my freedom, as by the state procedure I was to be re-incarcerated and bond back out (being that it was perceived to be a new case). I cannot express my gratitude enough, for Mr. Trent. If it wasn't for him, my life would be on a different track. I sincerely appreciate all that he has done and his proficiency in handling the sort of case. If at all, anyone in the future is considering hiring Mr. Trent, I would highly recommend him!

It was both a privilege and a pleasure, Kyle.

Experienced, Skilled and Honest Legal Counsel

I texted him regarding an incident involving my teenage son, he responded back immediately and provided valuable insight on the incident without hesitation. We scheduled a consultation with him a couple day later. After meeting with him It was obvious to me he was an experience lawyer focused on yo...u and your case out come. I watched him discuss my sons case with the State Prosecutor and argue the evidence presented in a professional but firm manner. He got his point across quickly without question, resulting in the case being dismissed before going to the trail. Talented lawyer who is truthful and will work for you, highly recommend him.

2nd DWI

I used Mike to represent me for a 2nd DWI. One of the questions I asked him was "why should I hire a lawyer, the evidence points against me" and he responded "because I can get you good results" and that he did. Basically if I stay out of trouble for one year my case will be dismissed. In the begi...nning the DA did not agree to this but Mike somehow made it happen. I confirm what the other reviews say, Mike was at every court date, and always responded promptly to my calls or texts. I would recommend him to my own family or friends should they ever need a criminal defense attorney.
