Recommendation for Michael E. Finein

3 years ago I had a significant change in my life and needed some expert advice. Upon a recommendation from a friend, I contacted Michael Finein and I couldn’t be happier with the support and advice that Michael has provided to me over the past 3 years. In cases like mine, I needed someone who could ...present me with the facts of Law, walk me through various options available to me while always listening to my concerns and with a focus on controlling expenses. I appreciate Michael’s honesty, direct feedback and a sincere desire to do everything possible within the law to support my needs. If you are looking for someone who will truly act as an advocate on your behalf with the highest integrity, responsiveness and partnership, I highly recommend Michael Finein.

Strongly Reccomended Alameda Divorce Attorney

Michael was a strong advocate who exercised outstanding judgement and provided good counsel throughout my divorce. He was sensitive throughout this very difficult process to present all options, make a reccomendation, and help me understand the ups and downs associated with each option. Duri...ng my divorce I worked with no less than 4 attorneys, and I can't say enough about how much sanity and humanity he brought to this process.

"I endorse this lawyer. Mike is extremely experienced in family law matters. I have known Mike for over 15 years, and he was my go-to guy when I had a question about family law on behalf of a family friend. Mike's advice to her was spot on and really helped her her through a difficult situation. One word sums up Mike - "caring". He really cares about people, and is like a pappa bear when it comes to protecting his clients. He will go to the mat for you and represent your interests until the end. And Mike has the experience, intelligence and common sense to make it happen."
