"I strongly endorse Michael Boyce. I know of no better criminal defense attorney. He is an effective, assertive advocate for his clients. Mr. Boyce is known for his in depth knowledge of criminal law and court procedure, along with his sharp mind and quick tactical defenses in the courtroom. He is experienced with the most serious felony offenses, gives equal dedication to the small cases, and has an outstanding track record of success in the courtroom. Mr. Boyce has years of litigation experience. I have seen him in courtrooms many times (hearings, jury trials, etc.). I have also seen him win time after time by being smarter and better than everyone else in the courtroom."
