Michael Albert Dedecker

I called him up after the farthest I realized I can go in the legal system, without my brain melting out of my ears from legal lingo and procedure, explained my case, and actually met him at the courthouse, he had appearances that day He agreed to take it, and hasn't let the gas down still. From w...hen I hired him, till currently, an absolutely great lawyer, with an HONEST communication. He tells you what will help you, and hurt you in your situation, no sugar coating it, not a yes man lawyer that will tell you you're gonna get everything under the sun you want, and I personally like that. As a Dad, fellas, you're gonna want this guy representing you. He's my lawyer still, and in the future. He's Aces.

I had no clue about divorce, child custody or anything that comes along with it. When I saw my marriage headed down this path I really did not know where to start. A good friend of mine recommended that I talk to Michael and I’m so glad she did! Initially, I contacted Michael for a consultation. He... answered my questions thoroughly and guided me to every single document that I would need to help process divorce and child custody. After trying to fill out paperwork on my own, I got overwhelmed. On top of the paperwork, my ex was being difficult. I called Michael and insisted that I needed help. I work full time and also have my kids full time. Michael was flexible with his time and scheduled time for us to meet. He didn’t throw a bunch of paperwork at me! He explained what I needed and we worked on each document piece by piece. After our meetings he would basically give me homework with reasonable due dates!! I felt like there was finally some order to the madness. I was nervous throughout this whole process, but Michael’s knowledge and calming personality definitely eased me. The process seemed long but I was so happy to have Michael in my corner. Thanks for all your advice and help, Michael!! If you’re looking for a family law lawyer you can trust with the most sensitive/difficult thing you’ve ever had to go through, I highly recommend Michael!

I spoke with Micheal on the phone in a panic. He eased my mind right away and was very informative of what I needed to do (before even getting him involved). I would have hired him in a minute, but due to his helpfulness I was able to take another avenue to settle a custody dispute. If I ever nee...d him in the future, he will be the first I hire. I highly recommend him.

I was referred to Michael through an online foster parent support group. We needed advice regarding an upcoming hearing and I had already contacted several other attorneys with no luck. Michael responded quickly and immediately made himself available for a telephone consultation. He listened to ou...r present concerns and provided advice regarding our next steps. With his guidance and expert recommendations, I was able to file the necessary paperwork that day. Michael was able to ease our concerns and empower us to advocate for our foster child in the best manner possible. Thank you!

Michael was not my lawyer but instead he was my daughter’s father's lawyer. Before meeting Michael I was nervous about my daughter’s custody case but after meeting him, I instantly felt comfortable and knew my side was being heard. He was great at mediating both sides of parties to agree on a fair ag...reement for my daughter’s case. His work is very professional and highly recommended for families in need of someone trustworthy and fair. Not many lawyers out there really care about both sides of the case but he’s one of the few that does! I believe that’s what sets him apart from the others. You can count on him to communicate effectively with both sides and be willing to work with any case. For the short time I’ve met him, I would trust him again with my daughter’s case.
