Excellent Experience, Great Result, Outstanding Lawyer

Michael Pham did a great job representing me on an Assault Case. I was at a nightclub with a few friends, and I later got charged for trying to break up a fight my friend got into. When I told Michael the facts of my case, he said we will need affidavits from all witnesses present, submit our defense... to the prosecutor and be ready for a trial if we dont get our dismissal. He explained all of the details very well and informed me of what to expect, what could be done or should be done, and kept my concerns that I needed to have the charges dismissed. In the end, through Michael's adroit legal skills, my case was dismissed. I really appreciate his service and highly recommend him.

Great Attorney to Help You.

I hired Michael Pham as my defense attorney on a Burglary of a Habitation charge. The entire process took about 5 months and the end result was case dismissed. I highly respect the fact that Michael never sugar coated my situation or gave me any false hopes. Michael was straightforward in explain...ing to me what the law was, how it applied to my case, and all of my legal options. Michael worked very hard in putting together witness affidavits and then presenting the truthful evidence of my innocence to the prosecutor. FInally after 5 long months from my arrest, my case was dismissed. I am extremely happy with Michael's professionalism in getting me a great result.

A legal warrior on your side. Great result into trial- Not Guilty

I highly recommend Michael Pham as a criminal defense attorney. I hired him on a drug case. In my consultation with Michael, I learned what the legal definition for "Possession" on a drug case was and the penalty range I was facing. Michael did a really excellent job in explaining to me my options a...nd asked what result I was looking for. I told him that the drugs were not mine and that I felt the police officer had no reason to pull me over and that I wanted to fight the case all the way to a jury trial. I did interview a few more attorneys after I consultated Michael Pham and chose him because I felt that he explained more to me than the other attorneys did. I also like the fact that he gives you his cell phone number and you can reach him anytime. When Michael got the police report, I learned that the police officer completely wrote a biased and slanted report pointing towards me. I asked Michael how can we fight the case and he said that he will subpoena to see if there is a video camera recording of the whole event. Unfortunately, there was no video, but Michael did point out ALOT of inconsistent statements in the report. I truly had confidence in Michael Pham to take my case to a jury trial. Michael had me come into his office on the weekend to prepare for the trial. I was in awe to know that my lawyer was going the extra mile to prepare for my case. In the trial, Michael attacked the lack of evidence that supported the police officers report and inconsistencies. I felt really good about the trial, but those where the longest 20 minutes of my life waiting for the jury's verdict. When I heard the words NOT GUILTY, I thanked the Lord and thanked Michael for being in my corner. I just want to say that if you believe that you have been arrested and the police lied on your report, you don't have to take it, you can hire the best lawyer I know Michael Pham and he will fight for you.

NO Help

Michael Pham did not help me one bit this was my first time being arrested so I had no knowledge about court and what I had to do for my case he made me feel unimportant never called and checked on me, never told me anything about my case, he kept rescheduling my court dates which I later found out I... was getting charged for, the officer in my case lied about my arrest and when I told mr.pham about it he did nothing I lost the case feeling like I could have did everything he did for me on my own , he just took my money and took advantage of me

Michael Pham is the BEST lawyer!!!

I have nothing to say but wonderful things about hiring Michael Pham. He took on my DWI case and handled my ALR hearing to save my drivers license and got both cases dismissed. He was very knowledgeable, skilled, and always available to answer my questions. He was personally involved throughout my en...tire case and explained the legal procedures and law. I felt that my defense was aggressive and when Michael Pham handed me my dismissal, I felt vindicated from that wrongful arrest. I would without hesitation recommend Michael Pham for his professionalism, straight talk, and dedication.
