After an incident I began a search to find an attorney for my brother. After speaking with many attorneys I was totally disgusted and felt that I was being taken advantage of due to the charges. It seemed every attorney I spoke with dramatized and tried to put the fear of God in my brother with out even hearing the actual facts.... Then on Sunday afternoon I decided to start my search again and on the second ring Attorney Michael Chinman picked up, I briefly described the situation and he asked me a few questions and set up a consultation for the next day, not to mention he drove 45 minutes to meet with us. He was calm, upfront, brutally honest and very experienced . My brother felt so comfortable within the first 10 minutes and wanted to hire him on the spot . I have never met an attorney so genuine and one that cares more about his reputation and clients than he does the mighty dollar and it shows. A good reputation and happy satisfied clients will only bring more clients. Unfortunate reviews along with trying to scare and manipulate clients into hiring you will only scare future clients away, just like the other four attorneys that loss a potential client. . I highly recommend this attorney!!

Michael was very instrumental in winning my motor vehicle violation case. He went the extra mile to file an appeal for me after I had left my initial hearing. At the appeal, he was very skilled at pointing out procedures not followed by the plaintiff. I would definitely recommend Michael to represent you in court.
