Michael King and the last year

Michael King explained the charges on the first meeting and explained the possible outcomes. He was with me for every interview and was willing to listen to my explanations. He is knowledgeable and comfortable in the courtroom. I would recommend him and he will be very honest about all proceedings... and possibilities.

Highly recommend

First off, before I hired Mr. King i had another lawyer I will not mention, he wanted me to plead guilty to a charge i did not believe i was guilty of. That is when i knew that lawyer was not the one for me. I wanted someone who would throw anything and anyone under the bus just to make sure I was ta...ken care of! I wanted someone who listened to me as if I were their friend or family member coming in need of help. I found that and so much more in Michael King! He always made me feel like I had nothing to worry about. He's one of the friendliest guys I've ever known, says hi to everyone and they say hi right back. He is always several steps ahead of everyone else. You feel like your the center of his attention during the tough times your going through. He's very easily accessible, always there for you. I owe so much to Michael King, he's the best of the best. Friend for life.

Third times a charm...

Mr. King was appointed to me as my Federal attorney in 2007. I was one of his first clients I believe, he and I built a friendship over the long drawn out process that it takes with the federal court system. I was not in a good place prior to my incarceration. I did receive exactly what we wanted fro...m the courts and for that I was very grateful. I was sentenced to 3 years in the Federal prison system therefore, I could participate in RDAP which is the drug program. I truly needed this program, I am an addict and always will be! Once out of prison and on probation as some of us do I violated again Mr. King was my attorney and this time I was given a downward departure on my sentence! Thanks to his knowledge of the system and that was with a DWI conviction just so you know. And, the last time I called Mr. King was after he was on his own and I was in a panic I had three weeks till I was off of probation and I was being accused of a dirty UA and once again with his help and the resources of the medical profession he was able to prove it was in fact a false positive and I completed the four years of my Federal probation. But, I would most defiantly hire Mr. King and recommend him he knows the Federal system and he helped me all three times and I always got lectured out of love but, he has helped me be the person I am becoming Thank You!

DWI charge reduced

Michael was phenomenal with our daughter's case. She was originally charged with DWI, and ultimately through Michael's constant and professional efforts, the charge was reduced to reckless driving. Michael was supportive not just from a legal standpoint, but was always available for basic counsel a...nd reassurance. He is truly exceptional at what he does.

A Defendant's Mother's Perspective

While he was at the federal public defender's office, Michael King represented my son on a felony charge. Mr. King was utterly professional and compassionate at the same time. I believe he had a clear grasp of the pertinent law, and diligently applied it to the facts of my son's case. He was very fo...cused on the trial at hand, but remembered that the event was a very stressful time for my son and his family. He explained what he was doing, answering any question that he could. Even though he could not share as much with me (since I was not actually his client), he explained the law so that I could be as prepared as possible for whatever might happen, while giving me a lot of reason to trust him with my son. Though he could not guarantee any particular result, I had the utmost confidence he had done everything possible to vigorously defend my son. His passion for the law, and for criminal defense was clear. I would definitely recommend Michael King to anyone.
