From a Relieved and Happy Client

Michael did exactly as he advertised. When I called to inquire about his services, he listened to how I had come to receive a traffic ticket and said he was confident that he could get the ticket dropped. He was professional, reassuring, and polite during our conversation. When I emailed him with ...a question prior to my court date, Michael replied the same day with the answer. I did not need to go to the court hearing since Michael went to represent me. I received a letter from him three days after the hearing reporting that the Court dismissed the infraction and that the ticket will not show on my driving record or be reported to my insurance company. Hiring Michael was well worth the money spent to save me many sleepless nights and hours of research on how to defend myself in court.

Traffic Ticket: Improper Lane Change

My son was sited for a Improper Lane change in Redmond a couple of months ago. We hired Michael to represent him we spoke directly with Michael, explained what happened, he immediately said, not to worry, I will handle it, and he did, the charges were dismissed, the charges will never appear on his d...riving record. Thank you so very much Michael.... best regards, R Howe

Do not hire an unprofessional Lawyer

I was disappointed with the level of professionalism Michael has provided given his profession. After hiring him to fight a ticket, I asked him to notify me by phone with the court's date and decision as I was going to be out of town for a month. Michael left me a voice mail confirming that he will ...notify me of the decision and date by phone. After not hearing from Michael, It turns out that my ticket was reduced to a lower fine had I paid on time. But given that I have not heard from him regarding my court date and decision, I was penalized for not paying on time, and the ticket was increased back to its value. Let alone I paid Michael, and the ticket remained on my record. Every time I tried to call Michael, his secretary would tell me he would call me back, and he never did. At times, I thought about calling from a different number with a different name, but thought it would be a waste of time. I would highly recommend other lawyers in the area instead of him. He is very unprofessional and does not deserve to be dealt with.

I apologize to this client if I failed to meet his or her expectations. However, because the reviewer failed to identify himself or herself, I have no way to determine the veracity of the reviewer's assertions. I invite the reviewer to contact me with his or her name so that I can address the matter.

Great Attorney!

I am the administrator for a construction and transportation company doing over $50 million work each year. Michael was referred to us by our attorney regarding a trucking citation. From the moment I contacted Michael's office, he took my call and provided immediate and simple instructions about ho...w to proceed with many helpful options and a very low fee. He handled every detail professionally and exactly as planned. The next thing I knew, I received a letter from Michael stating the Court had dismissed the case. I work with many attorneys on a regular basis and Michael's performance was exemplary. Michael is our attorney for these matters from now on and I highly recommend him for any traffic or transportation issues.

Professional and excellent lawyer

Michael was a referral from another lawyer as my infraction was in Vancouver, WA. Michael was very straight forward, friendly and professional with a great disposition. He told me he would take care of everything and let me know the outcome and did just that. My ticket was dismissed! A great investme...nt and I would highly recommend Michael Sheehan!
