When Mike Bugni took on my case I knew I was in good hands. It was a very complex case with some elements that were very difficult to navigate. He always told me the truth of the situation, whether it was what I wanted to hear or not. I knew I could trust his judgement from day one. My case took a long time to resolve due to the interaction of criminal and family law issues but he never failed to respond, to let me know when I needed to let something go and keep my attention focused on the final outcome. He has an excellent sense of when opportunities for compromise or settlement present themselves, and was able to get the other party to the table and settle out of court when it seemed that was not an option. Almost two years later, my life has settled down, my child is safe and thriving, and he remains in my corner for any issues that come up. I had never worked with an attorney before and Mike was patient, looked after my interests, and let me know when my style of communication was running up my bill so I could tailor how I worked with him to keep charging to minimum and stay focused on the important things. He is excellent in court, and even better at avoiding court whenever possible. If you have Mike on your side you can rest assured the outcome will be the best possible given the circumstances, the unpredictability of the court system, and the specifics of your case. Mine was complex, but he made it understandable and worked tirelessly for the best result for my child, and for me.

I have had a client/attorney relationship with Mr. Bugni for 33 years. Even as a newly practicing Attorney back in 1984, it was clear to me why my brother referred him to me. He's a winner! Even then, Michael's demeanor was that of a seasoned professional, always taking immediate action and the higher road. I have referred Michael zealously over these many years to several clients and all of them have achieved amazing results, including regaining custody of long lost children for one couple and reduction of insanely high support orders for another. I recall in the 80s going to court seven times and winning seven times. In recent months, Michael was successful in representing me with power and grace in a tough divorce. I could not have asked for a better outcome. In my experience, Judges and opposing council alike, have the highest respect for Michael's ethics and calm, confident demeanor; always sticking to the facts. In my own decades of experience, Michael has always gotten back to me in a timely fashion, has taken the ball and pounded it over the goal line. If you are looking for an absolute powerhouse attorney, I could not recommend anyone who would even come close to Mr. Michael Bugni.

Michael Bugni came highly recommended to me to help with my divorce and I was so so happy that I used him. He made a difficult time in my life so much easier.

I've worked with Mike and have found his knowledge, expertise and dedication to his clients in matters involving family law to be particularly helpful for people faced with difficult family circumstances.

Mike represented me in my contentious divorce. He listened, remembered and respected what I told him, and used it to craft an effective position. He was very efficient (compared to the divorce lawyer I tried first, and my ex's lawyer). He helped me rein in my emotions (not an easy thing to do at that time). He was realistic about the pros and cons of pursuing alternative goals.

Mike was full of great advice and helped in navigating the anti-dad laws well. His experience and advice have been proven correct years later. Several attorneys turned me away because of the complexity of my case. Mike pealed back the layers and explained as we went.

Mike literally saved my life. Before I found Mike my husband had moved to another State stole my two sons. Got a restraining order against me so I could not see my children and left me with nothing. He scorched to cinders my reputation as a good mother, a therapist a friend. My ex completely alienated our mutual friends from me and destroyed every professional and religious connection I had. He could do it. He had all the money your average person did not. He hired one of the most feared lawyers in Seattle and all I had was a prayer to save me. No one would touch my case and basically said I lost and there wasn't a hope to save me. Then I connected with Mike on the telephone. I had no money, no fame, no one I could refer him to to vouch for my personal integrity, nothing. Mike listened. He clearly saw I was a mouse and my ex was the lion that roared. He took on my case on the phone without even meeting me first. I couldn't even afford to fly up to meet with him. He believed in me when I had given up on myself. In a few short months Mike didn't just represent me but he put together a team to go after my ex. It was an ugly fight but Mike with his great compassion and insight had quelled the fury on both sides so that an equitable resolution could be found. He got my ex to pay to fly me up to see Mike and my children on regular visits. It was not out of the goodness of my ex to do it. It was all Mike. While my ex was racking up literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in his legal fees of his own Mike was barely charging me enough to cover his costs to defend me. In the end I got my house back, my children's love back, my children back and a comfortable settlement so I could live without ever having to beg my family members for money to live on. In essence my life back . If angels ever became lawyers my angel was Mike W. Bugni who changed my life for the best. Mike is my hero although he is much to humble and gracious to except to accept such compliments.

Mr. Bugni took on my child relocation case with constructive skepticism and blunt honesty. He scrutinized the legitimacy and motives of my case to his satisfaction, and counseled me with no false expectations; he insisted I feel the circumspection I would be viewed with. I was concerned initially that he didn't believe in me. I came to realize that what he was doing was making sure he could believe in me. My other initial insecurity was whether or not this man who clearly had a potentially distracting constant flow of work responsibilities could adequately focus on my case to retain the necessary details I needed him to in order to cover all aspects faithfully and accurately. When it came time for the proceedings of deposition and then trial, he not only had me prepared - but most importantly to me, I saw how completely prepared he was. I would recommend Mr. Bugni without reservation. He helped me win the toughest and most important conflict of my, and my son's, life.

Michael Bugni turned what is normally a difficult and traumatic experience into a process that was seamless. He is knowledgeable, compassionate and just a really lovely person to work with. I am so grateful that I found such a perfect Attorney, and excited to walk the beautiful new path ahead of me.

We hired Mike to help us with a custody matter 3 years ago. He worked as hard as anyone could to help resolve the situation, and when it didn't resolve, he dedicated his all in fighting for us. He was a tireless advocate, thoroughly prepared, and was excellent in court through 3 hearings and on appeal. Mike has the highest standards, morals and values. He is smart, an excellent writer, good in court and dedicated to his clients. He has an excellent support staff as well. I am a lawyer (I don't practice family law) and Mike is as capable as any lawyer I have ever known. I recommend him highly.

My other initial insecurity was whether or not this man who clearly had a potentially distracting constant flow of work responsibilities could adequately focus on my case to retain the necessary details I needed him to in order to cover all aspects faithfully and accurately. When it came time for the proceedings of deposition and then trial, he not only had me prepared - but most importantly to me, I saw how completely prepared he was. I would recommend Mr. Bugni without reservation. He helped me win the toughest and most important conflict of my, and my son's, life.

Michael Bugni turned what is normally a difficult and traumatic experience into a process that was seamless. He is knowledgeable, compassionate and just a really lovely person to work with. I am so grateful that I found such a perfect Attorney, and excited to walk the beautiful new path ahead of me.

We hired Mike to help us with a custody matter 3 years ago. He worked as hard as anyone could to help resolve the situation, and when it didn't resolve, he dedicated his all in fighting for us. He was a tireless advocate, thoroughly prepared, and was excellent in court through 3 hearings and on appeal. Mike has the highest standards, morals and values. He is smart, an excellent writer, good in court and dedicated to his clients. He has an excellent support staff as well. I am a lawyer (I don't practice family law) and Mike is as capable as any lawyer I have ever known. I recommend him highly.

When Mike Bugni took on my case I knew I was in good hands. It was a very complex case with some elements that were very difficult to navigate. He always told me the truth of the situation, whether it was what I wanted to hear or not. I knew I could trust his judgement from day one. My case took a long time to resolve due to the interaction of criminal and family law issues but he never failed to respond, to let me know when I needed to let something go and keep my attention focused on the final outcome. He has an excellent sense of when opportunities for compromise or settlement present themselves, and was able to get the other party to the table and settle out of court when it seemed that was not an option. Almost two years later, my life has settled down, my child is safe and thriving, and he remains in my corner for any issues that come up. I had never worked with an attorney before and Mike was patient, looked after my interests, and let me know when my style of communication was running up my bill so I could tailor how I worked with him to keep charging to minimum and stay focused on the important things. He is excellent in court, and even better at avoiding court whenever possible. If you have Mike on your side you can rest assured the outcome will be the best possible given the circumstances, the unpredictability of the court system, and the specifics of your case. Mine was complex, but he made it understandable and worked tirelessly for the best result for my child, and for me.

I have had a client/attorney relationship with Mr. Bugni for 33 years. Even as a newly practicing Attorney back in 1984, it was clear to me why my brother referred him to me. He's a winner! Even then, Michael's demeanor was that of a seasoned professional, always taking immediate action and the higher road. I have referred Michael zealously over these many years to several clients and all of them have achieved amazing results, including regaining custody of long lost children for one couple and reduction of insanely high support orders for another. I recall in the 80s going to court seven times and winning seven times. In recent months, Michael was successful in representing me with power and grace in a tough divorce. I could not have asked for a better outcome. In my experience, Judges and opposing council alike, have the highest respect for Michael's ethics and calm, confident demeanor; always sticking to the facts. In my own decades of experience, Michael has always gotten back to me in a timely fashion, has taken the ball and pounded it over the goal line. If you are looking for an absolute powerhouse attorney, I could not recommend anyone who would even come close to Mr. Michael Bugni.

Michael Bugni came highly recommended to me to help with my divorce and I was so so happy that I used him. He made a difficult time in my life so much easier.

I've worked with Mike and have found his knowledge, expertise and dedication to his clients in matters involving family law to be particularly helpful for people faced with difficult family circumstances.

Mike represented me in my contentious divorce. He listened, remembered and respected what I told him, and used it to craft an effective position. He was very efficient (compared to the divorce lawyer I tried first, and my ex's lawyer). He helped me rein in my emotions (not an easy thing to do at that time). He was realistic about the pros and cons of pursuing alternative goals.

Mike was full of great advice and helped in navigating the anti-dad laws well. His experience and advice have been proven correct years later. Several attorneys turned me away because of the complexity of my case. Mike pealed back the layers and explained as we went.

Mike literally saved my life. Before I found Mike my husband had moved to another State stole my two sons. Got a restraining order against me so I could not see my children and left me with nothing. He scorched to cinders my reputation as a good mother, a therapist a friend. My ex completely alienated our mutual friends from me and destroyed every professional and religious connection I had. He could do it. He had all the money your average person did not. He hired one of the most feared lawyers in Seattle and all I had was a prayer to save me. No one would touch my case and basically said I lost and there wasn't a hope to save me. Then I connected with Mike on the telephone. I had no money, no fame, no one I could refer him to to vouch for my personal integrity, nothing. Mike listened. He clearly saw I was a mouse and my ex was the lion that roared. He took on my case on the phone without even meeting me first. I couldn't even afford to fly up to meet with him. He believed in me when I had given up on myself. In a few short months Mike didn't just represent me but he put together a team to go after my ex. It was an ugly fight but Mike with his great compassion and insight had quelled the fury on both sides so that an equitable resolution could be found. He got my ex to pay to fly me up to see Mike and my children on regular visits. It was not out of the goodness of my ex to do it. It was all Mike. While my ex was racking up literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in his legal fees of his own Mike was barely charging me enough to cover his costs to defend me. In the end I got my house back, my children's love back, my children back and a comfortable settlement so I could live without ever having to beg my family members for money to live on. In essence my life back . If angels ever became lawyers my angel was Mike W. Bugni who changed my life for the best. Mike is my hero although he is much to humble and gracious to except to accept such compliments.

Mr. Bugni took on my child relocation case with constructive skepticism and blunt honesty. He scrutinized the legitimacy and motives of my case to his satisfaction, and counseled me with no false expectations; he insisted I feel the circumspection I would be viewed with. I was concerned initially that he didn't believe in me. I came to realize that what he was doing was making sure he could believe in me.

He took on my case on the phone without even meeting me first. I couldn't even afford to fly up to meet with him. He believed in me when I had given up on myself. In a few short months Mike didn't just represent me but he put together a team to go after my ex. It was an ugly fight but Mike with his great compassion and insight had quelled the fury on both sides so that an equitable resolution could be found. He got my ex to pay to fly me up to see Mike and my children on regular visits. It was not out of the goodness of my ex to do it. It was all Mike. While my ex was racking up literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in his legal fees of his own Mike was barely charging me enough to cover his costs to defend me. In the end I got my house back, my children's love back, my children back and a comfortable settlement so I could live without ever having to beg my family members for money to live on. In essence my life back . If angels ever became lawyers my angel was Mike W. Bugni who changed my life for the best. Mike is my hero although he is much to humble and gracious to except to accept such compliments.

Mr. Bugni took on my child relocation case with constructive skepticism and blunt honesty. He scrutinized the legitimacy and motives of my case to his satisfaction, and counseled me with no false expectations; he insisted I feel the circumspection I would be viewed with. I was concerned initially that he didn't believe in me. I came to realize that what he was doing was making sure he could believe in me. My other initial insecurity was whether or not this man who clearly had a potentially distracting constant flow of work responsibilities could adequately focus on my case to retain the necessary details I needed him to in order to cover all aspects faithfully and accurately. When it came time for the proceedings of deposition and then trial, he not only had me prepared - but most importantly to me, I saw how completely prepared he was. I would recommend Mr. Bugni without reservation. He helped me win the toughest and most important conflict of my, and my son's, life.

Michael Bugni turned what is normally a difficult and traumatic experience into a process that was seamless. He is knowledgeable, compassionate and just a really lovely person to work with. I am so grateful that I found such a perfect Attorney, and excited to walk the beautiful new path ahead of me.

We hired Mike to help us with a custody matter 3 years ago. He worked as hard as anyone could to help resolve the situation, and when it didn't resolve, he dedicated his all in fighting for us. He was a tireless advocate, thoroughly prepared, and was excellent in court through 3 hearings and on appeal. Mike has the highest standards, morals and values. He is smart, an excellent writer, good in court and dedicated to his clients. He has an excellent support staff as well. I am a lawyer (I don't practice family law) and Mike is as capable as any lawyer I have ever known. I recommend him highly.

When Mike Bugni took on my case I knew I was in good hands. It was a very complex case with some elements that were very difficult to navigate. He always told me the truth of the situation, whether it was what I wanted to hear or not. I knew I could trust his judgement from day one. My case took a long time to resolve due to the interaction of criminal and family law issues but he never failed to respond, to let me know when I needed to let something go and keep my attention focused on the final outcome. He has an excellent sense of when opportunities for compromise or settlement present themselves, and was able to get the other party to the table and settle out of court when it seemed that was not an option. Almost two years later, my life has settled down, my child is safe and thriving, and he remains in my corner for any issues that come up. I had never worked with an attorney before and Mike was patient, looked after my interests, and let me know when my style of communication was running up my bill so I could tailor how I worked with him to keep charging to minimum and stay focused on the important things. He is excellent in court, and even better at avoiding court whenever possible. If you have Mike on your side you can rest assured the outcome will be the best possible given the circumstances, the unpredictability of the court system, and the specifics of your case. Mine was complex, but he made it understandable and worked tirelessly for the best result for my child, and for me.

I have had a client/attorney relationship with Mr. Bugni for 33 years. Even as a newly practicing Attorney back in 1984, it was clear to me why my brother referred him to me. He's a winner! Even then, Michael's demeanor was that of a seasoned professional, always taking immediate action and the higher road. I have referred Michael zealously over these many years to several clients and all of them have achieved amazing results, including regaining custody of long lost children for one couple and reduction of insanely high support orders for another. I recall in the 80s going to court seven times and winning seven times. In recent months, Michael was successful in representing me with power and grace in a tough divorce. I could not have asked for a better outcome. In my experience, Judges and opposing council alike, have the highest respect for Michael's ethics and calm, confident demeanor; always sticking to the facts. In my own decades of experience, Michael has always gotten back to me in a timely fashion, has taken the ball and pounded it over the goal line. If you are looking for an absolute powerhouse attorney, I could not recommend anyone who would even come close to Mr. Michael Bugni.

Michael Bugni came highly recommended to me to help with my divorce and I was so so happy that I used him. He made a difficult time in my life so much easier.

I've worked with Mike and have found his knowledge, expertise and dedication to his clients in matters involving family law to be particularly helpful for people faced with difficult family circumstances.

Mike represented me in my contentious divorce. He listened, remembered and respected what I told him, and used it to craft an effective position. He was very efficient (compared to the divorce lawyer I tried first, and my ex's lawyer). He helped me rein in my emotions (not an easy thing to do at that time). He was realistic about the pros and cons of pursuing alternative goals.

Mike was full of great advice and helped in navigating the anti-dad laws well. His experience and advice have been proven correct years later. Several attorneys turned me away because of the complexity of my case. Mike pealed back the layers and explained as we went.

Mike literally saved my life. Before I found Mike my husband had moved to another State stole my two sons. Got a restraining order against me so I could not see my children and left me with nothing. He scorched to cinders my reputation as a good mother, a therapist a friend. My ex completely alienated our mutual friends from me and destroyed every professional and religious connection I had. He could do it. He had all the money your average person did not. He hired one of the most feared lawyers in Seattle and all I had was a prayer to save me. No one would touch my case and basically said I lost and there wasn't a hope to save me. Then I connected with Mike on the telephone.

I've worked with Mike and have found his knowledge, expertise and dedication to his clients in matters involving family law to be particularly helpful for people faced with difficult family circumstances.

Mike represented me in my contentious divorce. He listened, remembered and respected what I told him, and used it to craft an effective position. He was very efficient (compared to the divorce lawyer I tried first, and my ex's lawyer). He helped me rein in my emotions (not an easy thing to do at that time). He was realistic about the pros and cons of pursuing alternative goals.

Mike was full of great advice and helped in navigating the anti-dad laws well. His experience and advice have been proven correct years later. Several attorneys turned me away because of the complexity of my case. Mike pealed back the layers and explained as we went.

Mike literally saved my life. Before I found Mike my husband had moved to another State stole my two sons. Got a restraining order against me so I could not see my children and left me with nothing. He scorched to cinders my reputation as a good mother, a therapist a friend. My ex completely alienated our mutual friends from me and destroyed every professional and religious connection I had. He could do it. He had all the money your average person did not. He hired one of the most feared lawyers in Seattle and all I had was a prayer to save me. No one would touch my case and basically said I lost and there wasn't a hope to save me. Then I connected with Mike on the telephone. I had no money, no fame, no one I could refer him to to vouch for my personal integrity, nothing. Mike listened. He clearly saw I was a mouse and my ex was the lion that roared. He took on my case on the phone without even meeting me first. I couldn't even afford to fly up to meet with him. He believed in me when I had given up on myself. In a few short months Mike didn't just represent me but he put together a team to go after my ex. It was an ugly fight but Mike with his great compassion and insight had quelled the fury on both sides so that an equitable resolution could be found. He got my ex to pay to fly me up to see Mike and my children on regular visits. It was not out of the goodness of my ex to do it. It was all Mike. While my ex was racking up literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in his legal fees of his own Mike was barely charging me enough to cover his costs to defend me. In the end I got my house back, my children's love back, my children back and a comfortable settlement so I could live without ever having to beg my family members for money to live on. In essence my life back . If angels ever became lawyers my angel was Mike W. Bugni who changed my life for the best. Mike is my hero although he is much to humble and gracious to except to accept such compliments.

Mr. Bugni took on my child relocation case with constructive skepticism and blunt honesty. He scrutinized the legitimacy and motives of my case to his satisfaction, and counseled me with no false expectations; he insisted I feel the circumspection I would be viewed with. I was concerned initially that he didn't believe in me. I came to realize that what he was doing was making sure he could believe in me. My other initial insecurity was whether or not this man who clearly had a potentially distracting constant flow of work responsibilities could adequately focus on my case to retain the necessary details I needed him to in order to cover all aspects faithfully and accurately. When it came time for the proceedings of deposition and then trial, he not only had me prepared - but most importantly to me, I saw how completely prepared he was. I would recommend Mr. Bugni without reservation. He helped me win the toughest and most important conflict of my, and my son's, life.

Michael Bugni turned what is normally a difficult and traumatic experience into a process that was seamless. He is knowledgeable, compassionate and just a really lovely person to work with. I am so grateful that I found such a perfect Attorney, and excited to walk the beautiful new path ahead of me.

We hired Mike to help us with a custody matter 3 years ago. He worked as hard as anyone could to help resolve the situation, and when it didn't resolve, he dedicated his all in fighting for us. He was a tireless advocate, thoroughly prepared, and was excellent in court through 3 hearings and on appeal. Mike has the highest standards, morals and values. He is smart, an excellent writer, good in court and dedicated to his clients. He has an excellent support staff as well. I am a lawyer (I don't practice family law) and Mike is as capable as any lawyer I have ever known. I recommend him highly.

When Mike Bugni took on my case I knew I was in good hands. It was a very complex case with some elements that were very difficult to navigate. He always told me the truth of the situation, whether it was what I wanted to hear or not. I knew I could trust his judgement from day one. My case took a long time to resolve due to the interaction of criminal and family law issues but he never failed to respond, to let me know when I needed to let something go and keep my attention focused on the final outcome. He has an excellent sense of when opportunities for compromise or settlement present themselves, and was able to get the other party to the table and settle out of court when it seemed that was not an option. Almost two years later, my life has settled down, my child is safe and thriving, and he remains in my corner for any issues that come up. I had never worked with an attorney before and Mike was patient, looked after my interests, and let me know when my style of communication was running up my bill so I could tailor how I worked with him to keep charging to minimum and stay focused on the important things. He is excellent in court, and even better at avoiding court whenever possible. If you have Mike on your side you can rest assured the outcome will be the best possible given the circumstances, the unpredictability of the court system, and the specifics of your case. Mine was complex, but he made it understandable and worked tirelessly for the best result for my child, and for me.

I have had a client/attorney relationship with Mr. Bugni for 33 years. Even as a newly practicing Attorney back in 1984, it was clear to me why my brother referred him to me. He's a winner! Even then, Michael's demeanor was that of a seasoned professional, always taking immediate action and the higher road. I have referred Michael zealously over these many years to several clients and all of them have achieved amazing results, including regaining custody of long lost children for one couple and reduction of insanely high support orders for another. I recall in the 80s going to court seven times and winning seven times. In recent months, Michael was successful in representing me with power and grace in a tough divorce. I could not have asked for a better outcome. In my experience, Judges and opposing council alike, have the highest respect for Michael's ethics and calm, confident demeanor; always sticking to the facts. In my own decades of experience, Michael has always gotten back to me in a timely fashion, has taken the ball and pounded it over the goal line. If you are looking for an absolute powerhouse attorney, I could not recommend anyone who would even come close to Mr. Michael Bugni.
