Michael J Forrester

Michael J. Forrester initially was a "random" attorney I only picked because his office was close to my house; however, it must have been dumb luck to find such an amazing attorney who not only is competent, caring, concise and credible but highly capable! I had a case that started out in 2018 and... most attorneys would put you in the "collect the dust" file. Not this guy! My case had steam from 2018 to my settlement date which was officially May 9, 2022. Mr. Forrester kept me informed from the initial stages of my case, during and even after it was over STILL took my calls to further explain and/or clarify all my questions. I am probably the biggest doubter, pain in the "you know what" and very detailed client; yet, he was kind, patient and professional all in one and ALWAYS greeted me with a smile and NEVER rushed me on the phone or in person. Also, the STAFF is just as kind, patient and professional! This was a WIN WIN!! Don't take my word....CALL HIM!

Please be advised that my case was very complex and unique due to the fact that I filed for accidental Disability after the five year manifestation period after sustaining a career ending back injury while performing my duties as a police officer. After consulting with other PBA lawyers, I was advise...d that this case was too complex even with all of my medical records and a double fusion back surgery. Thankfully, I was referred to and had a consultation with Mr. Mike Forrester. Mr. Forrester took his Time, answered all of my questions and concerns. Mr. Forrester further took my medical records, reviewed them thoroughly, and after a few days, called to tell me that he was very confident with the case. Mr. Forrester is very meticulous in everything that he does, and goes above and beyond for his clients as proven with my case. After preparing my case and writing an incredible summary brief to the Pension Board, I was awarded Accidental Disability right off the bat approximately seven months later. I highly recommend Mr. Forrester and my family and I thank him for a job well done.

I would highly recommend Mike to anyone that is in need of his services. I am happy that I decided to go with mike for the case. He was great at explaining all of the details of the process. It is a very difficult situation to deal with and having mike a phone call away to answer any questions or ...concerns at any time of the day was really a huge help.
