Mr. Prudy was very professional, straightforward, and will keep you informed about the process as he works with you. He will give you his honest opinions about the possible best and worst outcomes that can happen for your situation. He is familiar with the local law enforcement and judicial staff and they know him. In my opinion an attorney's job is to keep you informed and put you in the position to obtain the best possible outcome. If you made a mistake then take ownership for your mistake and work with Mr. Purdy to put yourself in the position to obtain the best possible outcome. I was extremely happy with his work and would highly recommend him.

Mr. Purdy did an amazing job on my case. I am from Illinois and was charged with my second MIP in Michigan resulting in a misdemeanor charge. Mr. Purdy worked with the prosecutor to change the misdemeanor charge to a non-reporting civil infraction with no probation. If it was not for Mr. Purdy, I would have had a misdemeanor charge and my license would have been revoked by Illinois. I am very grateful for his hard work and would recommend him to anyone! A fantastic lawyer and very knowledgeable!

BEST LAWYER EVER!!! I searched around for quite some time and talked to many different lawyers, and sooooo glad I decided to go with Raymond Purdy. Mr. Purdy got to work immediately on my case and thanks to his expertise, experience, and great relationship with the courts, he was able to get my case resolved very quickly. He was very quick to respond to any questions I asked, and was extremely knowledgeable about the law. He thoroughly explained everything going on and what he was doing. His assistants were equally as helpful and quick to answer anytime I contacted them. If you need a lawyer, give Raymond Purdy a call, you will NOT regret it! Best outcome I could've ever expected! Thank you so much Raymond!!

I recently had the opportunity to work with Mr. Purdy and his team. The communication with everyone was quick, professional, and informative. Mr. Purdy was able to achieve a result better than we expected and his years of experience as an officer, prosecutor, and attorney made a big difference for our family. Thanks for your assistance!

Ray is simply one of the best attorneys I have seen. He knows the law, cares for his clients, and does an outstanding job in the courtroom. His many decades of experience put him head and shoulders above other attorneys. If you want terrific legal representation, I wholeheartedly recommend Ray as your lawyer.

My attorney was very thorough and attentive to my needs. She tailored my case to reflect my strong suits and easily won my case, allowing my to receive my license back. I would strongly recommend this firm to anyone who is serious about winning their case. My attorney's continued support and expertise made a difficult situation easy to navigate, and the end result was a positive one.

This firm is amazing. Very responsive, honest and quick. Mr. Glaza was very supportive and quick with everything on his end. I will recommend this firm to anyone. Everyone is very polite and accommodating.

Mr. Grabel gave transparent and honest advice about my case. He followed up with me and even worked with me to take calls outside of normal business hours. Got the best outcome of the case all thanks to his hard work!

This is hands down the best law office to contact. I had the pleasure of working with Will Amadeo and he is a bulldog! These guys know how to get you the best possible outcome

The amount of disrespectful and unprofessional behavior from Marcie is absolutely unacceptable. At one point saying she couldn't work with me, if my wife listens to what she was rudely saying to me. Sending me messages that were meant to go to her friend. Just beware and I hope to God you don't have to experience what I went through. Scott Grabel is a great owner (I did get my license back) so can't down grade Scott's practice he is very friendly and outgoing just the one lawyer he has I would watch out getting.

This dude right here. He might seem unorthodox but ill tell you what got me out of three felonies. I've since turned a new leaf. Vut it happened because of Richard Williams.

Richard helped me with my drivers license restoration. I was denied the first time I went to a hearing because I didn't have an attorney and apparently didn't have my ducks in a row. With his help, I got it back the second time. There's so much red tape, and him and his staff took me through it step by step. I highly recommend his services if you want your license back.

All staff at this law firm are extremely knowledgable. Williams’ strategy is sharp. It was a wise decision to trust him with my case.

Made mistakes in my case and I had to cancel my service with him but I appreciate he returned my money and acknowledged the errors.

Benjamin is definitely one of the best. I’ve hired him a few times and he never disappoints. Great Attorney for a good price.

I am a colleague of Mr. Gower. If you want an attorney that believes in justice and that will fight for you, I would highly recommend this law office. When looking for an attorney, you want someone that knows the law in and out, someone who understands how the system works, and someone who will do their best to help you with your legal needs. Look no further. A tip from a fellow attorney to people who read reviews. Do you want discount heart surgery? Or a discount tattoo? I would imagine most people would say no. Trust me when I say, you don't want a discount attorney either. You want to pick based on ability, aptitude, and strength as your lawyer. Quality of the work also matters. I believe that Mr. Gower embodies all of the traits I have described above. Highly recommended.

There's no doubt why Gower Law has the biggest name in Bay City. When on one of the busiest days in the city. The day everyone waits for he had an emergency appointment with me. He listened to everything I had to say. With no hesitation he connected me with one of his respectable attorneys Guy Cotter. Guy sat listened. With no hesitation was willing to help with my case. It's been stressful, hard, and finally the stress has been freed. The feeling that someone is listening. I'm finally being heard. Don't disappoint yourself, if you made it to this review it's prolly because your looking for the best attorney. Gowers Law

Hands down the best law firm I hav ever worked with .... They were super helpful and made my situation comfortable I will definitely will use this law firm again in the future I highly recommend them Thanks again Gower Law for all your help

Gower has helped us more then once. The were very professional and unbiased. Gave us the facts and represented is in OUR best interest. Unfortunately I have had multiple lawyer s who did not. Fortunately I know who to turn to now always for all my legal battles. If for some reason they do not specialize in your area of law, they will give you a good recommendation! Thanks again!

My family had a legal issue that required an attorney. Attorney Matthew Norwood did a great job at providing legal counseling and was able to have the legal charges reduced and the outcome were above expectations – well done Mr. Norwood. PS. His back office was also always very courteous. Whenever we had questions, she did a wonderful job answering our questions, and if she did not know the answers, her or Mr. Norwood were very timely in responding. I highly recommend Mr. Norwood’s office for your legal needs. Chuck

Attorney Matthew Norwood and I go way back, almost 15 years or so, as he was the first attorney that took my case as a challenge and I felt he took it personal. Attorney Norwood over the years has always thought outside the box when it came to getting a felony off my record. I feel confident he will represent anyone to the best of his ability. With recent law changes in Michigan, Attorney Norwood was my first call and he remembered my case and the details after several years, and was finally able to relieve me of my felony after 22 years. Great work Attorney Norwood, I will forever be grateful!!!

I've actually known that for a few years we going to church together I've never actually had to have a represent me for anything but as far as character goes it's impeccable I would highly recommend him.

Fully restored my license even through a pandemic. I would highly recommend Attorney Matt Norwood, very professional and will represent you the best.

Attorney Norwood is an exceptional lawyer. His knowledge and professionalism are beyond compare. He is easy to talk to and has a great ability to help you understand your situation. He has definitely gone above and beyond when it comes to myself and has been able help with matters beyond expected. He does what he says and shows genuine concern. would definitely recommend .

It is no exaggeration whatsoever when I say that Mike Manley and his associates saved my life. I made a grave mistake which cost me pretty much everything: my job; my reputation; my income; my home and my marriage. Not to mention the long arm of the law. To say that things seemed hopeless would be a gross understatement. Yet, at the time of my first encounter with Mike Manley he already gave me a sense of reassurance. Throughout the subsequent nine months he and his colleagues had crafted a settlement to my case that I never even imagined was possible. Those nine months were a difficult time of waiting and uncertainty, made worse by numerous delays due to the courts closing as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, I received regular updates from Christy, legal assistant at the firm and an absolute gem of a person, who kept me informed and never failed to provide kind words and encouragement every time we spoke. Mike and his colleagues are not only professionals (and damn good) at what they do, but they also genuinely care about their clients. There is a stigma out there, some predisposition among members of the public with regard to attorneys in general. Well, I can confidently say that none of those "things" apply to this firm. I was treated as a person, as someone they believed in. That is something one cannot put a price tag on. Thanks to Mike and his team I have a new lease on life; the opportunity to pick up the pieces and rebuild what I had lost. These folks are my heroes and I am forever grateful.

I can’t say enough regarding Mike and Julie. They treat me so well despite me getting myself into continuous battles. They make me feel as they truly care about me. Also Susan in Ann Arbor who Mike sent me to. She was also top notch. Thanks.

Needed Mr Manly after I did the one thing your not supposed to do before you get an attorney (he made that go away) As a new mom at the time and more terrified then I’ve ever been in my entire life Me Manley and his AMAZING staff made me so comfortable and at ease. I recommend Mr Manley to EVERYONE I KNOW that needs an amazing attorney. Thank you again..

I am grateful for my freedom and well being every day. After a recent encounter with LEO over a victimless crime, we contacted and retained the services of Mr.Manley and it was one of the best moves we could have made. I found Mr.Manley to be honest, forthright, and pleasant to be around. I really do believe he is a great choice for those knowing they need a lawyer who knows the system and "all" the players just as we understood the significance. One thing I noticed about Mr.Manley and his team is how professional, courteous, and decent they are. It helped me feel at ease and my case was resolved in the very best manner possible because we all knew it would be. If you want to win, Michael Manley is a winner and should be your choice!

Its okay good service

    I can’t say enough regarding Mike and Julie. They treat me so well despite me getting myself into continuous battles. They make me feel as they truly care about me. Also Susan in Ann Arbor who Mike sent me to. She was also top notch. Thanks.

    Needed Mr Manly after I did the one thing your not supposed to do before you get an attorney (he made that go away) As a new mom at the time and more terrified then I’ve ever been in my entire life Me Manley and his AMAZING staff made me so comfortable and at ease. I recommend Mr Manley to EVERYONE I KNOW that needs an amazing attorney. Thank you again..

    I am grateful for my freedom and well being every day. After a recent encounter with LEO over a victimless crime, we contacted and retained the services of Mr.Manley and it was one of the best moves we could have made. I found Mr.Manley to be honest, forthright, and pleasant to be around. I really do believe he is a great choice for those knowing they need a lawyer who knows the system and "all" the players just as we understood the significance. One thing I noticed about Mr.Manley and his team is how professional, courteous, and decent they are. It helped me feel at ease and my case was resolved in the very best manner possible because we all knew it would be. If you want to win, Michael Manley is a winner and should be your choice!

Shaun Marks is the man you want to represent you. Very helpful put my mind at ease knowing he was there to help me. Very professional .

I had found Attorney Shaun Marks after my son had received a traffic ticket, while he was 16, jeopardizing his driving privileges. Shaun had done exactly what he had originally promised, and my son is able to continue driving to work and school. Extremely satisfied and thankful! Thanks Shaun!!!!

I highly recommend Mr. Shaun Marks for a DUI attorney. He called me immediately (on a Saturday) after I sent him an email regarding our situation. He was upfront about everything and nothing was a surprise to us. He answered all of our questions and always returned my calls when needed. Thank you!

I cannot believe how great this attorney was! Very responsive handled everything with accuracy. Even better he had my domestic case dismissed! He doesn’t ask for a retainer he told me what he was gonna charge for the case which if you ever paid a retainer there’s always a chance you’re gonna have to owe more in a case

Shaun Marks is a professional! He walked me through the process and responded promptly to my questions and concerns. I highly recommend Shaun Marks!

Excellent lawyer, attentive to your needs and spot on with his knowledge and expertise.

I have used Attorney Doug Dern in the past for my wife's legal issues, the process was smooth and fast. He is vary reasonable on price and gets the job done. Now, I'm in need of an attorney and he is handling my case, complex as it is the process is almost done. I've never had a problem getting a hold of him at all hours. I would recommend him and his services.

Doug Dern will fight to get your case won. His prices are fair and he truly knows the law on all aspects. He is well respected within the law industry among his peers. If you need a stand up attorney select Doug Dern hands down !

Doug was great! He made sure everything was taken care of in my case. If you are looking for someone affordable, and quick, see Doug!!

Great legal service. Talk about attention. L Dunham was a client that was nothing but trouble about 10 years,She is still making up stuff to try to ruin me. People around town laughed behind her back because she never had it together. Her review is not true.

If you are looking for an effective and honest attorney, Larry Margolis is your guy. I was involved in a traffic situation which was relatively simple, nonetheless stressful and it involved high fines. Larry and his team provided outstanding legal assistance and treated my “minor” case with upmost diligence and a high level of priority. Updates on the progress of my case were ongoing and honest. I received guidance from Larry through the entire process which gave me the peace of mind much needed at that time. The results obtained by him were beyond my expectations. I will recommend Larry to my friends and family. I hope I never find myself again in a situation where an attorney is needed, but if it happens, I know I can count on Larry.

I highly recommend attorney Larry Margolis with the upmost enthusiasm! This is my first going through the legal process to help me solve a persistent problem from the past and with sensitive issues (sexual assault.) I was initially scared, nervous, and excited to go through the legal process ... however I felt secure with Larry Margolis. Larry explained to me the legality of my situation in thorough detail. He kindly listened to my story with empathy, compassion, and keen communication skills. Even during the times I felt emotionally sensitive, he showed support to me and always added in a little humor to cheer me up. Larry is the perfect combination of professionalism and compassion, especially toward sensitive cases like mine!

Being forthright and principled are some of the best qualities one can have when people are seeking justice and maintaining respect for their name and family.

My lawyer Jim was phenomenal.During my day of court none of the lawyers set with their clients. Jim knew that I was nervous. He set with me in the lobby and in then court room. We had pleasant conversation and he was so knowledgeable and accomadating. Wonderful lawyer.

In 2013, Larry lost my case in Lenewee County. I was not even guilty of the crime! These Officers of the Court are nothing but scammers. They make claims their helping you, but really are making deals in the Judge's quarters to sell you in trade as a commodity!! It's a big business!! Repent Larry!!!, before it's too late! Make what was wrong, right! Please!!! I have forgiven you, and the corrupt Court, and I love you, the person, but hate the Sin!!! REPENT!!!
