Mike helped my family member.  His firm was very conscientious and helpful.  They truly care, and got my family member a deal that he could have never dreamed of. And got most of the charges dropped. This guy is one of the best. I would recommend him any day of the week to anyone. Well actually I do all the time.

Response from Michael Gottlieb
LOL, funny and thank you for the positive feedback.

I sought the services of Michael A Gottlieb to file a motion for early termination of house arrest. Being the alleged victim and the office of probation both opposed, the prosecutor vehemently fought against my motion. Despite fierce opposition, Mr. Gottlieb was successful in getting my motion granted. Is he a good attorney? No... He's f***ing great!
#WINNING!

Michael Gottlieb and his staff treated me with respect, professionalism, and concern for 3 1/2 years! I want to take this opportunity to thank Michael Gottlieb and Clark Strandell for all the work, attention, and dedication you both put into my case. Although we and our pride's may have wanted the ultimate victory; my result is the best outcome we could have gotten under the circumstances that were presented. I truly believe I am very fortunate to have you both as my legal counsel. Considering the fact that our freedom is taken for granted; you both made me feel confident and safe through out my legal battle. I truly appreciate all you have done and that is why the both of you are in a class of your own. Once again THANK YOU!!!

In February 2011, we contacted Mr. Michael Gotlieb. After more than a year of being taken advantage of by another lawyer, Mr. Gotlieb agreed to take our case as soon as he looked at the paperwork and he assured us that it was a case done illegally and that we could definitely win. During this difficult time, he always remained confident and gave us encouraging and comforting words. I would like to thank Mr. Gotlieb for more than anything, for being a professional in every sense of the word.

I find Michael Gottlieb to be ethical, honest and of good sound moral fortitude. He does not compromise his clients reputation, freedom and civil liberty by having them take plea deals just to increase his profit margin like most lawyers seems to do.

Hired Attorney Michael Gottlieb

I think Mike is a great lawyer, but he is also someone who cares. He truly wanted to help my situation. Mr. Gottieb allowed me a playment plan, without that I would not have been able to use a private lawyer. He was there for me every step of the way. The charges I had were federal, and I didn't really understand until he explained the technical reasons behind why they brought the charges against me. I was told he was one of the best. I will totally agree with that. I had a different lawyer at the beginning of my case, but he kept trying to get me to take a deal. It was like he didn't want to go to trial. Almost like he was scared of it or didn't believe in himself enough. So when I got rid of him and hired Michael Gottlieb everything changed, he was fearless, and 100% confident in his ability. I recommend him anytime I can, and believe in him completely.  Thank You Mr. Gottieb, and I wish you the best.

Hired Attorney Michael Gottlieb

I had an excellent experience with this lawyer. A friend from work gave me the reference. I had went out drinking with some friends, which turned into a alot of problems, not only legally, but problems in my marriage. Michael Gottlieb beat all my cases at trial, except one and I ended up taking an unbelievable deal for it. He was very reassuring, and explained well, why all this happened. I would definitely refer him with the same enthusiasm that the person gave me the reference had. which was alot. It's actually the reason I called him. Thank you for everything, and I wish you the best of luck.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
