If you have criminal charges, you need Mike Paulhus. He is knowledgeable, experienced and he keeps you informed throughout the whole process. When I called him, he answerd the phone. If I emailed him, he gets right back. He shows you everything and goes over it with you. He sits down with you and talks to you in a way that you can understand. He doesn’t talk down to you. He got me a very good result. I trust him.

I cannot recommend Mike Paulhus enough. My family has relied on his legal expertise for years, even prior to his solo-practice. He has always been incredibly responsive, compassionate, and at the top of his game. His dedication and skill have truly made a difference for us in several situations, and we have never once second-guessed our decision to continue using his services. I completely trust him, and as a member of the legal community myself for over 30 years, I would not hesitate to recommend him, and have to family and friend. He is extremely humble and always downplays his abilities and insists he does not have the power of miracles—but I will tell you, the results speak for themselves.
