Michael Fuller represented me in a malicious and frivolous $1.5 million slander lawsuit brought by my ex wife. Michael navigated the entire process aggressively and flawlessly. His communication with the opposing counsel was clear and direct and he stayed several steps ahead the whole time. In the end, she paid me to settle the case.

Michael Fuller represented me in a case against a merchant. I'm grateful that Michael took my case and recovered my money for me. You wont find many attorneys as dedicated as Michael is. He really cares about helping people. He is the real deal. Thank you Michael for helping me!!!

Michael, it was such a great relief when you said yes to taking our case. You promised us the value of our car before the car was totaled and you did it. Mom and I are so grateful. God is so good. He gave us you to be our own personal David and you slew Goliath!! God Bless you Michael Fuller Sincerely, Sister Claire and Mother Jewell

@UnderdogLawBlog Michael and his team are amazing. His colleague Matthew Sutton knew exactly what information they needed me to collect and then they brought out the Louisville Slugger and got in beast mode They got a 10 year old unscrupulous $2300 collection from The City of Portland Water Bureau handled and brought a collection agency to the bargaining table. A Wizard Team off Law. Professionals Thanks so much for your help! You took a beat up guy and restored my dignity.

Mike was quick to respond and provide the help we needed. He was respectful in response to our questions, very concise on what we needed for documentation for our potential case. He explained in layman's terms regarding our mortgage company issues, credit bureau issues and post bankruptcy issues.

I received a phone call from a bill collector threatening to sue me. I googled to see who was reputable in Portland which is where I live and found Mike Fuller. Mike explained the typical legalities with my situation and told me to call him back if I needed anything in the future. Loved my brief interaction

Contacted Michael about a collection agency that is trying to collect on an old debt. I think it is past the statute of limitations. I'm currently sending him the paperwork for him to review. Thanks Michael!

I was connected to Mike for a consumer debt case that was over 10 1/2 years old, and the debtor was attempting to collect illegally. Mike stepped in and assisted in resolving the matter without even knowing me -- pro bono. He resolved it within only a couple of weeks and helped protect my assets in the process. I trust Mike, and could tell immediately that he was dedicated to seeking justice for those unable to afford legal protection. He was prompt, responsive and extremely helpful in guiding me through the whole process. I will always be grateful to him for helping me resolve the matter so quickly, competently and efficiently. I highly recommend Mike!
