Superb Litigator!

I hired Mr. Michael Sweeney to handle my foreclosure actions twice. Due to shortage of money, I was in danger of losing my house twice. I have a wife and who boys who did not want to move to another town since they have their friends in this town. Mr. Sweeney took my case and fought extremely hard un...til I was able to refinance the mortgage in the second action. During the first action, Mr. Sweeney literally kicked ass the bank's attorney and I had given a sufficient time to pay the arrears. I have been referring Mr. Sweeney for many cases and all of those clients expressed their gratitudes. He is honest, hard working and very smart. He takes his clients very seriously. He is always available to talk whenever I need him. My utmost recommendation for this superb litigator!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
