Mr ruiz helped me and my case tremendously, he did everything in his power and genuinley seemed to care that the best outcome possible materialized, Whilst for 9 months keeping in regular contact with me answering questions,providing updates , and making sure i was on the right track he even was able to accomidate my financial situation. I am more than satisfied with my expierence and very glad i went with him. I would highly recommend his services he treated me with more respect than attorneys who quoted me 4 times the price and also was for sure more compitent and focused on my best interest.

Tony is repersenting me in a case in Delta county Michigan in a delivery of meth case and has been nothing but the coolest most honest attorney he can be and I appreciate what he has done for me or will be doing for me in the future.

We hired Mr. Ruiz to represent our son with a NMU campus parking permit incident. Mr. Ruiz was solid and professional. He was able to address our issues in a timely manner, worked well with our son and family and was very effective in getting the charges being dismissed in the end. We would highly recommend Mr. Ruiz, he knows the county court system , how NMU handles things and how to work with you accordingly.

I hired Tony to clear my record. Even though the case was exceptionally difficult, Tony ultimately prevailed and stayed within budget. Successfully bring closure to this area is part of a group of factors that will assist me in moving forward with my life.

I contacted Tony via his website about a year ago for a family law/child custody case. Tony’s practice contacted me within 24 hours to set up a consultation. Tony was one of multiple attorney’s I consulted within the U.P for this case. Being an out-of-state resident, this complicated a variety of things. Things the other attorneys I interviewed seemed not to have a lot of experience with. I ultimately chose Tony to represent me for the case. He assured me of open communication lines, whether that be FaceTime, calling, texting, email, etc. to overcome the time zone differences or financial commitments of in-person meetings. Very reasonable. The pricing was affordable and fixed; meaning no unexpected attorney fees. I flew to the U.P multiple times throughout the year to practice parenting time and was able to meet in-person. He was very accommodating to my flight schedules and made himself available for these trips. Tony was knowledgeable and did his research when it came to case law. Everything that was thrown our way, Tony had a case to reference; no matter how obscure… it was maintained in court. Watching him in the courtroom was equivalent to watching a Grandmaster chess player, strategic, passionate and adaptive; Truly a sight to see. Our case had some non-controllable delays and additionally went through a de novo review which contributed to the 1+ years I’ve worked with Tony. I could go on and on about the experience. The one that stick out the most was Tony understands family values, and he CARES. Things went our way; we did what we set out to do. I will continue to use Tony for council on any future cases, no matter the discipline.

Tony guided me through a felony charge with probation and for my divorce and you can tell he genuinely cares about the people he represents! He is very well educated and it shows. You can ask him about darn near anything and he knows what he is talking about. Highly recommend Tony!!!

Tony did exactly what he said he would do when I hired him. There were no surprises and he worked to help me out. I couldn't believe the results he got me, and I couldn't be happier. I thought I was hopeless with my case but Tony turned that around for me.

Very on point and glad to help. +5 stars. He was willing to help at the cost of nothing. Very informative. Education speaks loudly. Even is willing to take another call if needed more information. 5+stars.

Tony was an excellent lawyer in multiple capacities and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. He worked hard on my behalf, was always a straight shooter about what to expect, and most importantly, he genuinely cared. Integrity is lacking in many aspects of today’s world and especially in the legal world, but Tony and his work embody that rare characteristic.

Tony took on a case of trespassing for me and was very determined to represent me. He worked hard and ultimately the case ended up being dropped.
