Called for an appointment and the front desk transferred me directly to an attorney named Michael. From the start, he sounded irritated, dismissive, and completely uninterested in answering basic questions.
I would have had no problem paying for a consultation if that had been required upfront, but honestly, after speaking with him, I’m glad I didn’t. Professionalism matters, especially when people are calling for legal help.
The strangest part was when I asked for his name. He paused for several seconds and responded, “You want my name? It’s Michael.” The attitude was unnecessarily rude and unprofessional.
If you work with clients, at least act like you want to!

Note that your receptionist is turning away potential clients.. I called inquiring about an HOA legal issue (as the president of my HOA) and she said they don’t practice in this field. However the website clearly states it as one of their practice areas….

Michael Simkin is a fantastic attorney and a wonderful human! He settled a case for me that got me 6x what I was originally offered. The landlord that I had broke every law and was a nightmare to deal with. Michael and his amazing team (Hi Esther!) always kept their cool and were amazingly patient when my former landlord’s attorney would try the patience of any saint.
Michael came highly recommended to me and I cannot more strongly endorse both him as an attorney and as a person.
Do yourself a favor and hire Michael.
You won’t be disappointed!

Michael Simkin was spot on with his services that I needed. He was knowledgeable, approachable and timely in regard to my legal matter. His direction and advise led me to an effortless conclusion to my problem. The fees for his services were within reason, and communicating with both him and his staff were a pleasure. If ever I need similar help in the future, he is the person whom I would rely upon in an instant.

This review is long overdue. I have worked with Michael and his team more than once, and I will go back anytime I need something in his scope of expertise. He is compassionate, and he takes the time to explain every step of the process and every option. No nonsense, no wasted time or energy. He is efficient, professional, and a great communicator. He has exceeded my expectations every time, a fun and great guy to chat with too! I would not consider anyone else, and I can't say enough about him. Look no further. You will not be disappointed.
