This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Detailed and agressive

I have been working with Michael since 2011. He was able to walk me through a very scary time in my life in a situation that was purely a juvenile mistake. Mike Helped me through the initial process of making my mistake right and later helped me through getting it off my record through the proper cha...nnels. I have trusted Mike through the toughest time in my life and would trust him with all of my other professional needs. Thanks Mike!

Superior Service

I was referred to Michael from another Attorney in San Diego to help me with my case in Orange County. From the moment I made that nerve-wrecking phone call to explain my initial scenario, Michael was quick to respond and made me feel that I was going to be in good hands. He was always responsive to ...my email(s) and walked me through everything involved with my case. Long story short, we came out with a beyond favorable result and I truly believe it was due to his professionalism and knowledge of the legal realm. I would HIGHLY recommend Michael Brewer to anyone!

Exceptional Attorney!

Michael represented me in my first ever conviction. It was a daunting situation at first but Michael's professionalism, experience, and empathy immediately put me at ease. I was well-guided through the entire process. There was no time when I wasn't fully aware of my case status, what the current a...nd upcoming action items were, what choices I had, and what the most likely outcome/s would be. Having Michael represent me during this time meant much stress was alleviated, so I was able focus on my work and personal life. In the end, we were able to reach an excellent outcome which surpassed expectations. I can't speak highly enough of Michael Brewer. I would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.

"Mike is an excellent criminal defense lawyer, especially well steeped in Dui and dmv defense. Although my practice covers a similar area of the law, I have also had the pleasure of working on multiple cases as co-counsel with Mike and he is just tremendous. Very calm and an excellent listener, yet firm when he needs to be. His approach to DMV defense is second to none, very thorough. I highly recommend him."
