Disappointing

I’m a 100% Disabled Combat Wounded Veteran that was in a coma (documented) when a supposed case was brought against me. I explained to this firm I was never served nor given my due process of law and still have never seen the supposed judgment and they still harass me and try to garnish my wages from... a supposed judgment over 8 years ago. Then they go after my new wife who just legally immigrated here 3 years ago and has nothing to do with this at all. Due to my disability I needed more time to have someone help with the paperwork that is being sent to me incomplete and it’s repeatedly sent back saying not returned in time. Profiting off soldiers that have absolutely no way to defend themselves is a great business model. Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should… P.S. I never consulted Michael Collins but this review requires you to fill every block.

Worth every dollar !!!!!!

Mike was referred to me by my uncle who he helped over 10 years ago! His paralegal was amazing on the phone and via email ! Both were extremely helpful! My initial call was about 2-3 weeks before my hearing and a holiday in between that, they didn’t forget about my case and kept in contact with me.. ...I contacted a lawyer prior to mike who was trying to charge me triple of what Mike charges due to my unemployment case . Mike saved me a lot of money, was professional , and prepared. this was one of the best investments of my life! Thank you Mike and team!

One of the Best!

I needed help quickly. He started on the case before receiving money and took the time to explain everything throughly. More helpful and less expensive than most attorneys I have dealt with.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
