Michael Eyre settled my case with ease at a low cost

Michael Eyre did an outstanding job of representing me this summer in an ADA case regarding my family’s property in Southern California. His extensive experience in these types of cases made things run smoothly and gave me a lot of peace of mind. Our case never went to trial because of Michael’s e...xperience dealing with these types of cases with the addition of having battled this same attorney representing the plaintiff. That other attorney knew that it was going to be very difficult winning a case against Michael Eyre. It was also a pleasure working with Michael. He was easily accessible, provide excellent clear advice, and keep me posted along the way with all new developments. I am strongly recommending Michael Eyre for anyone looking for a professional, easy-to-work with, easily accessible and case-winning attorney.

Michael Eyre, Esq. (our Mr. Lincoln)

Here is our story: We were in one hot-real-estate-mess, with the other party of two (2) attorneys trying to hood-wink us for a lot. Two against one, from a big Irvine firm. My husband must have called at least ten (10) attorneys, and when he called Michael … we knew – Michael was the one! He ...is cautious, he is honest, and he knows the law. And Michael Eyre does his homework. Always available for us, explaining things, and advising us. Michael knows exactly what he is doing. Siting case law in every circumstance. Negotiating when negotiating is necessary, whatever skillset is required to be successful. Michael Eyre was the best thing that happen to us during this trying time. At the end of our case, not only are we grateful to be his clients, we would refer Michael Eyre, Esq. (our Mr. Lincoln) anytime.

Review Michael Eyre

Michael Eyre was a professional and very knowledgeable about the law. I never felt pressured...only informed about my options. I was always able to reach him via phone or email. The letters and paperwork he filed for the courts were articulate and very detailed that they blew me away. I had never bee...n through this process before and working with Michael Eyre made me feel comfortable and very well represented. He listened to me and told my story and in the end I felt like no other lawyer could have done a better job. I would highly recommend him as an attorney!

Michael Eyre is absolutely phenomenal!

Mr. Eyre is extremely knowledgeable, intelligent, and well informed with respect to California law, civil litigation, and civil procedure. He was sensitive to my financial situation which really helped. He is optimistic and confident with the law. I did not have trouble reaching him on the phone. ... My messages where quickly returned and setting appointments were never a problem. He gives his utmost attention to your case and pays close attention to your concerns. He reviews court documents with speed and precision and quotes statutes and case law in opposition to or in support of whatever best suits your position. His calm and personable demeanor when speaking with you leaves you with a feeling that you are in good hands, which he has proven to me several times in court. Mr. Eyre is a remarkable attorney. He is truly an angel in a three-piece suit. Thank you Mr. Eyre!
