The Best in Cochise County

Mike has been my family's attorney for 10 years. We've hired him repeatedly for our needs and he has won every time. Yes, he's expensive, but he's the best in the county. His assistant Carissa is brilliant and so helpful. Teri at the front desk has always been very nice to me. I've recommended Mike ...Farro to friends and family, and will continue to do so.

It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.

He’s arrogant. Thinks he’s better than everyone including his clients. He’s loosing his memory. Forgets everything. He charges a ridiculous amount. He doesn’t do anything you ask of him. They will not work around your schedule. The lady at the front desk, his wife, is also clueless.

Excellent Results

He was direct, gave me my options, acted on the one I chose and got the results I wanted. Teri and Carissa were extremely helpful and responsive to any problems I encountered during the court process. If I require legal representation in the future, I'll know where to go. If you want results, he'...s the attorney you should hire. I have no regrets.

Self Proclaimed Professional

I recently went through a divorce. During this divorce I was willing to concede on all matters except one. About a month into it my wife and I were looking to have a consent decree drawn up. He told us that we couldn't do that. After completely draining the savings accounts he drew up the paperwork t...hat we had asked for 7 months earlier and $15000. This guy doesn't care about your family no matter how much he says that he does. His wife Terri is unprofessional, rude and just a disgusting person. He also likes to point out his military credentials but failed to recognize the new laws that pertain to military retirement for spouses. Once my lawyer called him out on it, he suggested one of his buddies to us for the calculations of the allotment. Be cautious and expect erroneous billing if there are any funds remaining in the retainer.

Great Attorney

When my ex-wife and I divorced we decided to split everything 50/50, time with our children and also all their bills. After five years of this working fine, she took me to court to try and relocate to another state where her new husband was from. If that was denied, she wanted primary custody and al...so a few other things, lawyer fees etc. I talked with Mike about the case and decided to go with him. I had read a couple of reviews, some good and some not so good. Mike was definitely more expensive than the other attorneys I had looked into. My ex had Bays as her attorney. I was extremely nervous for our big day in court, not to mention Bays has some great reviews. We had our day and Mike did an amazing job. At no point during our day in court did I question what I had paid him. It was a great feeling to know that he was on my team. I walked out after a full day in court smiling ear to ear. There was no real change to our parenting time and I still get to be with my daughters half the time. I can't say enough good things about not only Mike but also his staff, Carissa and Teri. All of them are very professional. They always kept me well-informed and updated me right away on any changes. There was no comparing the two attorneys that day in court. They where clearly on different playing fields. Thanks for everything Mike, Carissa, and Teri!
