      Review Michael Waters

      very knowledgeable, yet has an easy going demeanor

      Posted by

      Mr. Waters is very knowledgeable, yet has an easy going demeanor that makes you feel at ease in even the most stressful situations. This made the entire process much more manageable for my family business. Our case was successful, and we felt better during it. What more could you ask?

      not pleased

      Posted by

      unsupported accusations will not be approved? mmmm......makes me wonder about this website too. I will say this attorney definitely didn't earn his hourly wage. Did not keep me abreast of my case, would leave messages and were not returned immediately. I don't feel in my case he was trustworthy. Not spiteful and sticking to the facts. He did not disclose my offer correctly to opposing counsel....hope that was specific enough

      Worst $50 dollars ever spent.

      Posted by

      I paid $50 for a 30 minute consultation. His secretary said to bring in paperwork so that he could review it. He would not even glance at it. He said employers can do whatever they want, and that changing job descriptions after an employee has filed serious complaints was not retaliatory. He was very disinterested. Luckily he is not the only employment lawyer in the Springs. The next gentleman I visited was appalled by the evidence I presented, and immediately agreed to take my case.

      Are you an attorney? Endorse this lawyer

      Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

      I tried a case against Mike in 2014. He presented as aggressive and thorough, but very professional and courteous. While both sides pursued their case, we were able to agree on exhibits, witnesses, evidence, etc. Mike was an example of how contentious cases can be tried with professionalism.

      Barkley Heuser

      I endorse this lawyer. I have worked opposite Mike on many cases. He is detailed, experienced and tenacious. He knows the applicable law and also knows his way around a courthouse. Good guy, good lawyer

      I have known Mike for a number of years. He is a great attorney and mediator. He has a wealth of experience and is a true professional.
