Made life a little easier

Michaela and cody were so helpful through the whole experience. Incredibly easy to talk to and knowledgeable about everything that was happening in the case. Helped me out tremendously and took a lot of stress off of me. Michaela helped me and talked me through everything and was able to work out a d...eal to help me in my case.

Responsive, Flexible Attorney

Michaela was extremely helpful. She got my bond reduced to PR within twelve hours of being hired. Later when hired to represent me on the case she was responsive for the five years it took to resolve, allowing me a great deal of input on my own legal defense. In addition, the retainer was very reason...able given how long the case stretched. Would highly recommend.
