Hired Attorney Mr. Michael Alexandar Garcia

Mike is great lawyer-very practical, realistic and prudent. He says it as it is. He specializes in premises and products defense and I would recommend him to any retailer or restaurant business. I our cases we have received amazing results whenever he is involved, saving us thousands. he is from Miami and knows how "odd" his own community can be.

Hired Attorney Mr. Michael Alexandar Garcia

Very practical, to the point, extremely efficient and cost effective. I deal with many lawyers and most are full of themselves and charge a fortune. Mike is a breath of fresh air; he will solve your problem and it will NOT cost you [most wanted 5 times what he charged]. He is very good and cheap, and a nice guy. Use him.

Hired Law Firm

We relied on Patricia Amaducci of Fowler White Burnett to negotiate and settle a complex inter-state insurance claim and were greatly pleased with the results. FWB negotiated a fair settlement and protected our insured’s and our interests. Communication was timely, clear and to-the-point. We highly recommend Fowler White Burnett and will likely retain them again.

Hired Law Firm

This is a racist law firm. They have old white women that gossip amongst each other against the few minorities that work there and make living their uncomfortable. Even if you contact HR, they would just find an excuse to get you fired instead of addressing the bigotry or discrimination in that firm, particularly the Fort Lauderdale location where the main Attorney Bruno assisted his tenured employees to continue their bigotry with no resolution or repercussions for their racist ways . Doreen Houser is the ugly racist white woman that made working there unbearable. HR conspired with Doreen after I made complaints and eventually got me fired not once addressing the racist allegations. The poor front desk girl was told to change her hair style because they didn’t like her Afro. Luckily I’ve moved on but this firm is disgusting.

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.
