El Jefe

No words can express how grateful I am for retaining Mr. Bloom and his wonderful staff Maria and Vero! Mr. Bloom gives such stellar “boos like” presence in the court room and seems to be so well respected. I would assume from all his dedication to the justice system and to many who have had the oppor...tunity to work with Mr. Bloom. Maria and Vero are the ones who run that office seamlessly! The time and effort they put in (Maria especially) is very much appreciated, not only by me as the client but to Mr. Bloom himself. There were times I was so worried and depressed I just had to trust my lawyer and boy… I’m so glad I did! Mr. Bloom is extremely seasoned in what he does and I would highly recommend him! Thank you Mike Bloom, Maria and Vero! I can finally move on with my life!!

Saved my life!

I hired Michael Bloom at a point in my life when I was spiraling out of control. I was facing 14 years in prison for two aggravated DUIs and other offenses. He was able to get many of the charges dropped, significantly reducing my prison sentence by 6 years. This is despite a backdrop of an extensive... criminal history. I have been out of prison since 2019 and I feel that Mike has given me my life back. I'm 8 years sober, I'm back to running my businesses, and I'm establishing better relationships with my family.

Michael and his firm are AMAZING!

I cannot speak highly enough of Michael and his firm. I got myself into some real trouble, requiring swift action and a savvy knowledge of Arizona law. With my head spinning, I was lucky enough to find Mr. Bloom in my moment of need; and though encumbered with a heavy case load, he empathized with my... position, as did his office, and all worked tirelessly on my behalf, and to an incredibly positive result. Throughout the process, nothing but amazingly quick response and professionalism from all. He was also able to repetitively calm this 50-yr-old man back down to a level of peace and hope, and was instrumental in keeping me out of the hospital with a aneurism from the resulting stress of this episode in my life. Nothing more to offer, than one of the biggest "Thank you!"s of my life!

Arizona's Superman !

I have to say I had no idea when Mr. Bloom took on my case that such an amazing result would be possible. I will forever be thankful for his knowledge, guidance and the sustained effort he made towards achieving the best possible outcome for me. Kudos as well to his wonderful staff who were always ...warm and supportive. Thank you !

Mike Bloom is the real deal!

In 2014 I was arrested on two very serious charges, and I was extremely fortunate that Mr. Bloom agreed to take my case. His dedication to my cases was unparalleled! Mr. Bloom and his outstanding paralegal Maria paid attention to every little detail no matter how minuscule it seemed. Mr. Bloom is ext...remely well educated in his field, and only practices criminal defense, which made me very confident in him representing me. In the end, one of my cases was dismissed, and the second was resolved by Mr. Bloom negotiating an outstanding plea agreement. I would recommend Mr. Bloom and his legal team to anyone seeking the best criminal defense attorney to represent them. I also had peace of mind with Mr. Bloom, which is very relieving when you're facing a lengthy prison sentence, and constant stress. I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Bloom again, and he would hands down be my first choice of criminal defense attorneys to represent me!
