Michael Bialys is the lawyer to hire!

Michael is probably the best in his field, especially in California. He listens, he is empathetic and he gets the job done. He navigates the process and achieves fair and balanced outcomes. My only regret is that I did not hire him from the very beginning. He helped me regain some of my self-respect.... Micheal was able to have my record expunged. I will always be grateful for his professional assistance and his care and concern for my case.

The BEST DUI Attorney EVER!

Michael Bialys took my DUI case on after another attorney had botched it. He went to bat for me and reviewed and discovered things in the case that allowed me to get a Wet Reckless even though I had a Blood Alcohol Content of .16. He was always available to me and kept in close communication. He a...nd his team did an outstanding job. I recommend him highly.

" Intellectual and Strategic Planner "

After the position I had put myself into - Michael immediately put me at ease in what was at first, a very stressful situation I was in, before I had met him. I was very comfortable with Michael the minute I met him, and could understand and relate with him, more than any attorney I had spoken to abo...ut my case prior. And believe me, I spoke to many prior... He kept me well informed from the very beginning to the ending of my case. He is an incredible fighter and strategic game planner, and also coached me on what I could do to better myself in my well being, that would only help me in the long run. I liked that he did this... I believed in him and how we was trying to help me, along with helping my case. HE WAS RIGHT. I would highly recommend Michael in so many ways, along with his helpful staff. He is a specialist at what he does, and lives up to his name as " The DUI MAN ".... Luke - Brea, CA

Excellent attorney!

First off, I would like to thank Michael for helping me throughout my case and getting the positive results I personally thought were impossible. Michael is a very knowledgeable attorney who knows the ins and outs of the court system. The day after I got my DUI, I called numerous lawyers to help... me out for my long journey ahead with my case. Among all the attorneys I spoke to, Michael was the only person I truly felt comfortable with handling my case, and that says a lot, especially since we have only spoken over the phone and have not met. Michael was prompt in setting up an appointment to meet me, which was very convenient and as I gave him the lay down of what happened the night of my DUI, he gave me a cut and dry picture of what he believed was possible and impossible. Michael is an honest attorney, who does not beat around the bush just to make you feel better, but gives you options and plans out what he and I can do to achieve better results. Michael took care of all my paperwork from the court, represented me with utmost professionalism, and basically stuck by me throughout my whole ordeal. In the end, he got my DUI down to a dry reckless, which is a non-alcohol related offense, a true blessing because it would have ruined my career in the military. Overall, I have learned from my experiences and could not have done it on my own without Michael. Again, thank you Michael and I highly recommend you.

Glad I called!

Michael gave me personal attention from the very beginning, and it didn't stop there. I believe he saved me countless dollars and time by dealing with legal issues that would have drowned me. He was able to turn what might have been a DUI (0.167 BAC) into a Wet Reckless charge by bringing into questi...on the reason I was stopped. There is no way I could have done this on my own. His thorough advice and follow-through saved the day. On another note: Even more than one year after the charges were brought, Michael has always answered or promptly returned my calls when I had any questions. I have had some trouble paying off the remainder of my fines on time, and on occasion I have bumped into him at the courthouse/clerk's office, where he always recognized me by name, and even took his own time to walk me through the steps of getting me extensions-even accompanying me into court to help speed matters through when I was behind on payments. If you need help like I did, I would strongly recommend Mr. Bialys for his knowledge and caring attention to your situation. Thanks Michael!
