I recommend attoney, Mr. Michael Thompson to anyone looking for a reliable and committed lawyer. He was the blessing we needed to win our case. Mr. Thompson went above and beyond to getting my children back home. He always stayed in touch with us and even worked after hours to make sure we had a strong case. When in need of an attorney I will always seek Mr. Thompson, he is very good, passionate, and aggressive when need be in a professional manner of course and has meet our highest expectations. I cried with tears of joy when we won, he was the answer to our prayers! Forever thankful for making us a family again!
Mike is a very good attorney and doesn't like the games that are sometimes played with his clients and even though things don't always happen when you or I may want them to it's not from the lack of hard work it's only because some times there more going on that can't be said or worked out in the courts.
I would recommend MIchael to anyone!!! He did an amazing job with my divorce and child custody case!
He is really good
I retained Michael in 2015 for a DUI and Speeding case. I found him honest and extremely capable. The Court extended the case out almost one year to accommodate the State Trooper's schedule. Mr. Thompson worked diligently at many pre-trial hearings to have the case dismissed but the Judge denied the motion at each hearing. The Prosecutor offered a plea deal that was not acceptable and we went to Jury Trail. The DUI was dismissed and the over 40 speed which I never contested received the minimum fine for the speeding buy Jury verdict. I hope I never need another attorney, but I would certainly choose Mr. Thompson again if I need quality legal advice and representation.
Micheal Thompson is an excellent attorney. He handled my case in a timely manner keeping me up to date on everything. I strongly recommend his services to anyone in need of an attorney.
Lord knows I've been in and outta court all my life I wish I woulda met Michael much sooner. He's the best attorney I ever had I wish all other attorneys were like him. Thanks Michael. You are the best..
Extremely friendly and helpful. Provided much needed answers and assistance efficiently. Will recommend to friends and family and will definitely retain his services again if needed.
Michael Thompson has by far been the best attorney that I have ever had the privilege of representing me. Mr. Thompson took the time care and consideration of gathering all information and readily available to his clients. Even if He was in court his secretary would set up a phone appointment within a 24 hr period to guarantee that his clients could speak to him and not passed over. Mr. Thompson goes above and beyond when most others brush you off. The compassion with which he serves his clients is immeasurable. He has a highly aggressive court side manner...I have dealt with many attorneys over the years and Mr. Thompson rates at the very top of my list and would trust no one else to handle a court case for me. Thank you Mr. Thompson for all the time and energy you put forth in all you have done for me...it will never be forgotten.
