About

My Legal Philosophy:       I am first and foremost a fighter.  You are always weakest in a criminal case on the first day you are arrested, when the only side of the story being told is what the police have to say, and they almost always represent their case to be stronger than it really is. Taking the path of least resistance and negotiating at this point is almost always a mistake.  Putting in the extra effort to do a thorough investigation and view all of the evidence the police have, and find the holes in their case, has resulted in superior outcomes for my firm.  Fight first, negotiate later, if necessary.

Michael is a very well informed attorney. He is very concise and detailed when explaining your options given your particular legal predicament. Michael was always responsive to all of my questions and concerns with the patience and fortitude to answer everything until I was satisfied that I understood it. I found him to be a very reliable, professional lawyer with keen legal acumen and I very highly recommend him. If you want to feel assured that you are getting the most sound legal advice he is the best choice.

Yes I would hire Mr. Lambert. He went out of his way in many respects to help me out of s sticky situation. I is young, adept and has his finger on the pulse of whichever courthouse he happens to be dealing with on a particular day. My sense is that he gets along well with his peers, that is judges, DA's, prosecuting and defense attorneys, and has the charisma and personality to get his clients a positive result in their respective cases. I feel fortunate that Michael Lambert handled my case.

Michael Leigh Lambert was prompt in calling me, meeting with me and taking action in my defense. He identified all the necessary elements, while being diligent in communication with the District Attorney's Office, submitting paperwork and meeting in court. M.L. Lambert is an expert is his field and his reliability provides you with peace of mind once he decides to take your case. He is at reach and an excellent communicator who understands how the system works. I highly recommend his services.

Michael was extremely thorough and responsive. I needed assistance with a severance package that presented several challenges. He always made himself available even if it was for a 5 minute conference call. His knowledge and guidance ultimately led me to a faster turnaround than I anticipated. I ended up leaving more satisfied with the result of the agreement based on his reccomendations.

I hired Mr. Lambert when I had an issue going on with my insurance. He walked me through the entire process and put me at ease while I was a nervous wreck. He prepped me before anything took place and took charge in the whole ordeal. When the day came everything he prepped me for was spot on and I was able to get out of the situation with a settlement. I would highly recommend anyone to use his services if you're ever in a tough situation. Thanks Michael for all your help!

I called Michael at a critical time in my life when I was being accused of Elder Abuse Fraud. He returned my phone call right away and I met him within that week. I found him To be very knowledgeable and sensitive to my issues. He would call me in the evening to reaasure me and was available every step of the way. The case was dismissed. I highly recommend him. He is awesome

Mr. Lambert was professional, courteous, well informed, and realistic from the beginning. It was undoubtedly some of the darkest days of my life when I met him. He took time to explain my options, learn what I wanted as the outcome, and explained ways to achieve it. He would spend time researching and was always honest about what to expect. It is evident that he values the outcome of the case more than his reimbursement. He is driven and determined. In addition, he is very easy to talk to. Many times, I felt like talking to a good friend rather than my attorney - that made a huge difference, especially when dealing with all of the other stressors. If, God forbid, anyone that I know is ever stuck in such a predicament, I would recommend Mr. Lambert in a second. I went from being in a situation of having my life completely ruined to getting a brand new start... with a clean slate... at exactly where I left off prior to the case. It is unbelievable!! I thank God everyday for giving me such a great lawyer. In a difficult situation like that, you need someone like Mr. Lambert on your side.

Michael Leigh Lambert was my attorney in my recent defense case. It started out as a felony but in the lowest class. I was in jail for 26 hours. Mr. Lambert stated this is the hardest part, it gets easier from here. He stated his intentions were to eventually get it to a violation and not a criminal charge. This month, true to his words, I pleated guilty to a violation and got 4 days community service. He was the only voice of hope when I felt hope was lost. I would definitely recommend Mr. Lambert to others.

Amazing Guy .. and I deal with attorneys all day long. He took on a case for me, and because he wasn't sure he could help, he worked the case, and kept me informed, without asking for a single penny up front. His due diligence paid off. He resolved my case in under 30 days - and of course got paid. The man is GOLD!
