Michael R. Anello

While vacationing in Key West, I was arrested by the KYPD during a late night traffic stop and was in need of a legal defense attorney rather quickly. I was pointed in the direction of the firm for which Michael works by a local and it turned out to be an excellent choice of counsel. My case ultimate...ly went to trial after a lengthy string of continuances and the thoroughness and attention to detail regarding the facts in my case were clearly displayed in the courtroom as Michael presented factual evidence and cross examined witnesses before a six member jury in my defense. His command of the courtroom was amazing in and of itself. The entire legal team at the firm performed remarkably which resulted in a most favorable outcome at trial. I was always kept abreast of developments as they occurred and had constant communication via phone calls and emails throughout the process. Thank you to Sam, Michael, Maria, and Caroline. So if you should find yourself in need of a thorough, competent, and aggressive criminal defense and an attorney who can execute such a strategy in the courtroom, if need be, look no further than Michael Anello of The Law offices of Samuel J. Kaufman.

I highly recommend Michael Anello should you find yourself arrested in Key West and in need of a defense lawyer. Michael handled our case for us and prepared for trial even though we live quite far from Key West. He updated us by phone and made sure that we only had to go to Key West right before t...he trial, which ultimately was dismissed just two days before the trial date. Michael has a background as both a prosecutor and a probation officer, so we felt confident with the experience he had. He is very strategic. He knew the details of how both sides of the case would go, which made him a good defender. Michael is a confident attorney and a commensurate professional; I would recommend to those who need a good defense lawyer for criminal cases in Key West.
