Top Tier

Attorney Michael Fallings represented me in a disability case against a very large government agency. From day one, his communication was excellent. He responded to all my phone calls, text messages, and concerns thoroughly and respectfully. He was transparent and honest and explained things in an ea...sy to understand manner to ensure that I understood the road in front of me. Attorney Fallings took on my case when another attorney withdrew himself as my counsel 3 days prior to my hearing because he didn’t believe my case could win during litigation. Michael Fallings came in and embodied my case. He litigated and presented my case in a way that would have you to believe he was there in the room, when I was being mistreated. Mr Fallings attention to detail during litigation was unmatched & every mistake the agency made, he caught it. There are truly not enough words to describe my appreciation for Attorney Fallings and his team & I can not thank him enough. Not only did they represent me well, but we WON BIG! I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Michael Fallings and the Tully Rinckey team.

Employment Separation Assistance

Michael was very professional and timely in all actions. Though the outcome was not as ideal as hoped for, this was not due to any lack of effort on his end. I would seek his assistance for other legal matters when needed.

Professional, knowledgeable and engaged

Michael Fallings took over my discrimination case just prior to having a judge assigned to it. From my first interaction with Mr. Fallings, I found him to be knowledgeable and understanding with regard to my case and how it had affected my family and I. I always felt that he truly heard any concern...s I had about dealing with the Agency on certain aspects of my case and I felt that he always offered sound legal advice in response. He worked with me to set realistic expectations, which led to what I felt was a very fair outcome. His communication with both myself and the Agency was always timely, accurate and exactly the right tone for the occasion. When you work with Mr. Fallings, you will have the pleasure and confidence of knowing that your case is in excellent hands. By the way, his legal assistant, Ms. Blanca Montoya Gutierrez is personable, professional and extremely pleasant to work with also. If you're looking for professional, knowledgeable and engaged legal representation, look no further.
