Michele was extremely knowledgeable!

She helped give me the best advice on settling my case! Cannot thank her enough for being helpful and taking her time to assist me with my issues.

Hard working, amazing lawyer

I hired Michele Petty to help me with a custody battle. Michele is friendly, supportive, and extremely knowledgeable. She was willing to work outside of her office hours to save me from a situation where I could have easily lost my case. Without Michele my case would not have had a successful outc...ome. I’m so grateful for her willingness to work with me and create a successful outcome for me. She explained everything thoroughly and I felt informed, which is not something every lawyer offers. Thank you Michele!

Exceptional Attorney

Michele Petty is angel! She is an exceptional attorney that genuinely cares about each of her clients. I personally was going through an emotionally time in my life and Michele instilled confidence in myself and gave me peace of mind due to her wealth of knowledge. I was able to get more than a fair ...settlement and it is because of her dedication and passion. God bless her and her entire family.

Don't ever let anyone treat you less

Michele will stop unethical and overreaching behavior by two bit attorney's she worked on several cases and won them all if you are threatened by nasty letters from anyone or threatened with any litigation hire her immediately it puts the breaks on any harassment if you get to her in time I know sh...e is expensive but hey you get what you pay for she is wise and will not back down

Praise for my attorney!

Ms. Petty returned my call promptly and listened compassionately. I was very upset and never felt belittled or uncomfortable sharing my situation. Ms Petty's knowledge and articulation of the law was remarkable, and appropriately intimidating! She remained professional toward me and toward the oppo...sition for the duration of the case. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
