I had been a member of the Legal Defense Fund for a number of years without ever needing to use it. That all changed earlier this year. I was involved in an internal matter in which I was accused of a crime. I made a call the the fund and was referred to Mr. Akerson. I called his office and spoke to Michael immediately. He walked me through the initial process and calmed my fears. When the time came to meet in his office, it was at my convenience. Mr. Akerson attended my hearing and was instrumental in my being found completely innocent of any wrong doing. I highly recommend Mr. Akerson and his services.

Mike has helped me through some difficult situations, including representation at a disciplinary hearing and formal litigation. Both matters were dismissed without further action. He is always courteous, professional, and extremely helpful. He has taken the time to speak with me on other matters, including both job related and personal. Due to my position, I have the opportunity to work with numerous attorneys in the public and private sector. He is an outstanding lawyer and I would highly recommend him to anyone.
