R. Michael Collum

It is not an understatement to say that Michael and David saved my life. I was in a five-year divorce that was taking me down financially and emotionally, supporting myself and three children without support payments and spending every dime on legal fees to other law firms. Then, I found Michael Coll...um. Michael mercifully took me on as a client on the eve of trial when I was so broke that I was representing myself against one of the biggest divorce firms in the city. David took on a mountain of evidential binders. The team took on my ex's counsel, who was hell bent on draining me financially until I agreed to all of his onerous and made-up reimbursement claims. Michael and David litigated like absolute champions. My ex was embarrassed on the stand when Michael made him admit to all his lying by undermining all of his testimony with actual evidence. Collum's final argument trapped my ex's counsel into withdrawing his claims based on his inability to prove any of them. I walked away with my freedom and a redeemed faith that there are still some heroes on this planet. Thank you Michael and David.

Michael Collum receives my highest recommendation. He is an incredibly dedicated, compassionate, and ethical attorney in a challenging area of law that is frequently highly charged with emotion. He takes quick action to protect the interests of his clients, and he was always been available to suppo...rt me and to explain to me the ramifications of my legal situation. He was at all times extremely responsive to my questions, which has not always been my experience with lawyers. I appreciate his zealous representation, and I will always contact Michael with any future legal needs.

Michael Collum is an amazing, compassionate, knowledgeable, reliable, and seasoned attorney. He has been my attorney since 2017, and words alone cannot describe how grateful and thankful I am to have found him. He is a gem. He has successfully defended me in court, and had a fabricated TRO dissolv...ed and dismissed. Michael’s professionalism and integrity are unparalleled. Even in the most challenging situations, I could count on Michael’s sound legal advice. The fact he is so calm and level headed is impressive given the emotional intensity of family law cases. I highly recommend Michael Collum and his law firm, and a five-star rating doesn’t begin to describe his skills and abilities as a family law attorney. He is simply brilliant.

I first began working with Michael about two years ago. Since then he has been by my side through a long term marriage divorce and child custody proceedings. I have never felt in better hands than when I’m working with him. He has always been honest and open about what needs to be done and does not l...ead you into spending extra time and money on things that are unnecessary. His knowledge and command of the law are bar none. In court his deliverance is that of a confident man that is not flustered by the opposing side. He is a gentleman, respectful. He showed me patience and guided me through each process. I have a difficult time with confrontation and Michael was just what I needed to garner my strength and courage. We have had good news each step of the way and if we ever have less than that I will know that he put in all of his effort. I have recommended him to others who have used him with success and I will continue to do so. I am grateful that I was led to Michael, I would not be in the position that I’m in now without him and his expertise.

Mr. Collum represented us in a contentious divorce and custody case. He always looked out for the safety of our daughter protecting her with every legal means available. He was able to obtain sole legal and physical custody after physical abuse by the opposing spouse. He argued to the Court that the ...opposing spouse was an unfit parent. The Court agreed and ordered only limited Skype visitation. After uncovering fraud and concealment of income and real property, Mr. Collum successfully argued to the Court to retroactively recalculate and augment spousal and child support. Mr. Collum is an exceptional attorney. We recommend him without reservation.
