My lawyer for my Medical malpractice case was Michael Foley of Foley Law Firm in Scranton ,Pa. I was very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism as well has always having a rebuttal to back up his case, always asked the right questions and answers to back his case. Very compassionate and made me comfortable. It was unbelievable how i saw him work so hard on my case, always wanted the best result to his client. Michael made me feel the case was personal. His staff was a great support team and very caring towards me. I could not be happier to have Michael Foley and his Team at Foley Law Firm as my attorney. Medical malpractice cases are very hard to get a Win, I would RECOMMEND THEM 100% . Thank You

If you need a lawyer for an automobile accident, personal injury, or other legal issue, please contact Michael Foley. He will not only fight for you until you win, but he will also make you feel like a family member. He is determined, knowledgeable, dedicated, and above all, compassionate. He goes above and beyond protocol to communicate with you every step of the journey. Another impressive trait about Mr. Foley is how amazingly well he works with young people. My son was 17 when he met in his tragic auto accident; Mr. Foley has not just been his attorney for the past four years, but also a mentor that consistently helps my son deal with his trauma.

Mr. Foley is the best attorney out there. He helped me with my case when he was not even my lawyer. He is an amazing human being and works hard to support causes he believes in. Foley went out of his way to help me with no questions asked. He keeps in touch with me to make sure I am okay and that my needs are being met. He is by far the most knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated attorney in the entire Northeast, PA region. I would give him 10 stars if I could. The absolute best.

Mike was the only lawyer that I could find that was confident enough to take my case. From the beginning he was very clear as to what needed to be done and had deadlines that were pretty quick. When covid-19 hit i thought it would set everything back a lot but Mike insisted on getting everything done promptly and he did! His determination and knowledge of what to get done, when and how is the unbelievable. He knows which experts to hire, doctors to see, an so much more. Working with him has been great!!!
