Excellent service and took the time to explain everything carefully

I called Salem Law recently about a creditor from 15 years ago who was trying to garnish my paycheck. Because of this potential garnishment, I was quite stressed and didn't know what to do. Almost immediately, Michael Shurtleff made my stress level go down as he looked up the details of my case witho...ut hesitation. From his point of view and relying on his expertise, he was able to see that this creditor had no legal basis to instigate this garnishment. He then determined that my case was best handled by a colleague and told me he would refer me and to watch for an email from him to his colleague. Within the hour I had received a quite detailed email from Michael on my behalf to another attorney that would take it from there. He did all of this work for free and no matter what happens in my case, I am grateful for Mr. Shurtleff for his advice and leg-work that he put in to help me out. I feel much less stressed now.

Extremely helpful in all aspects

He went above and beyond when one creditor was extremely difficult. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs his services. Can't speak highly enough of his hard work and professionalism.

"I endorse this lawyer. Why? If you read answers to questions by persons on AVVO and compare the answers you will notice Michael takes the time to carefully and fully (and accurately) explain the answer to the questions when possible. Click on answers of his here on AVVO and you will see what I mean. Having practiced myself 29 years and filed over 5,400 bankruptcy petitions I appreciate newer attorneys (but he has substantial experience already) who take the time to give your information that you sought. After all, is that not why you asked? So go to an attorney who you will receive such quality representation by. Great job to Michael too! Sincerely, Richard D. Granvold in nearby Washington State!"
