Michael Borkowski, and Awesome Attorney

Mike has been nothing but honest to my family and me. He has helped where I would not trust any other attorney in the Sacramento County to name a few Skip Solinskey and Jeffery Hunt who are not trustworthy. Mike has gone beyond his duties to help my family and has done a wonderful job. He is an ong...oing attorney of my family since 2008 and will remain our attorney until he retires.

INCOMPETANT; LACK OF COMMUNICATION; NOT DEPENDABLE; Just to name a few...

I was robbed by Mr. Borkowski!! I trusted him to be professional and reliable and he was neither. Prior to our initial consultation Mr. Borkowski quoted me a retainer fee in the amount of $4,500. At the end of our consultation he agreed to represent me, however, he requested an additional $1,500 f...or the retainer fee totaling $6,000. He explained the extraordinary circumstances regarding my case and gave a brief explanation of the approach he would be using . From the beginning, I basically did his job for him. It was difficult to reach him and he seemed to ignore my case until the day before and/or the morning of court. When it came to challenging the court because rules and laws were not being addressed or enforced, Mr. Borkowski refused to address them because they were laws/rules/codes with "NO TEETH". What is the point in having codes/laws if nobody is willing to enforce them. I trusted Mr. Borkowski...he violated my trust in the worst way! He was often a "NO SHOW" at court!
