Highly Recommend

While vacationing in Colorado, I got in a DUI accident and hired Mr. Steinberg to represent me due to his extensive experience and expertise as both a defense lawyer and former DA. The charges were serious and I was facing potential jail time in Colorado which would have meant the loss of a very goo...d job in my home state. With several facts against my case, Mr. Steinberg was straight forward with me about what I was facing but that didn’t stop him from working hard to get me the best possible outcome. During our 1st court appearance, Mr. Steinberg negotiated a suspended jail sentence and probation for the DUI with other charges being dismissed or deferred with eventual dismissal. I’m so grateful for the outcome as it has enabled me to keep my job and provide for my family. More importantly, this incident thrust me back into recovery after having relapsed after a few years of sobriety. Mr. Steinberg was very compassionate regarding my struggle with addiction and has encouraged me as I've sought treatment. I wouldn't have the hope for the future I now have if it weren't for him. - JM

Highly Recommend!

Michael is the best lawyer I could have ever hoped for while dealing with my criminal case. If you find yourself involved in a criminal or civil matter it can very overwhelming. From the very first phone call, Michael made me feel like I had someone that was on my side. He is extremely knowledgeable ...and experienced in all aspects of the law and he takes time to explain every step and what to expect. I was constantly worried and felt overwhelmed but my anxiety would be diminished after meeting with Michael and understanding all of my options. He was always available and made sure that all of my questions were answered. He is well known throughout the legal community and is very well respected. I know that he went above and beyond trying to ensure that the outcome was what I needed, he truly cared about me. I was very satisfied with the conclusion of my case. Michael is a tough lawyer that you would want on your side. I am extremely grateful for everything he did for me. I highly recommend hiring him! My family and I are very thankful.

Steinberg is the best...Shoplifting reduced to a Disorderly Conduct

My family member shoplifted a merch for $25 and was charged by the Aurora PD. With citizenship application in place, this (shoplifting) could be taken as a CIMT. Ground for inadmissability. Mr Steinberg patiently listened to the flow of events and analyzed our case. Now comes the "relationship" play.... He is friendly and knows the right tone to use with the DA. This is an art. He then moved our court date, meanwhile working in conjunction with our immigration attorney to craft a suitable plea. This wasn't easy as it needs precision in the eyes of Municipal Court and Immigration. Plea was offered and reduced to a disorderly conduct, i.e. no CIMT that could affect immigration. I recommend Michael Steinberg to help you resolve your encounter with the law.

Great Attorney!

My son was in big trouble.After several charges and probation violations, he was advised by another attorney to sign a plea agreement for 18 months in jail, which he did and was immediately taken into custody. We met Michael and he agreed to take my son’s case. After only 4 months in jail, Micha...el was able to petition the court for a reconsideration of his sentence. We were not aware that was even possible. Michael is a no nonsense attorney with a very straight line approach. Take his advice and let him do his job. Michael was successful in getting my son into a 90 day dual diagnosis rehab facility and upon completion of the program in good standing, no more jail time or probation. It was more than we could have hoped for. Michael is fair, to the point, knowledgeable of the law and informative. His fees are fair and reasonable. Definitely worth every penny. Thank you Michael. We owe you a debt of gratitude that is not easily repaid. Jeff and Kathy C

DV case

Mr. Steinberg is a tough straight forward attorney. I had my second DV case, he saved me from jail, ankle bracelet, and reunited with my family by modifying the protection order before my DV evaluation. I highly recommend Michael Steinberg
