Criminal defense Attorney | Sep 02
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I endorse this lawyer. I remember working with Mike on a big mortgage fraud case in Fresno. All of the top local lawyers represented someone in the case. When it came time to file motions to dismiss the charges it was Mike who took the lead. Every one of the attorneys just ended up using what Mike had written in arguing to get the case dismissed, which it was. That shows you what kind of lawyer Mike is and how much he is respected by the local defense bar."
