I don't normally review people or business's for that matter. But in this instance I feel the urge to get a good word out there. I'm a recent client of Michael Swanson. I went through a separation and decided I wanted more time with my son than the mother was willing to allow. After consulting with several attorneys and spending money that could of of been used elsewhere I found M. Swanson. To make a long story short he exceeded all of my expectations from the consultation to the advice, strategy and overall representation. Not to mention he is way more affordable than most others. When all was said and done (in a very timely manner) I was given 50/50 custody and visitation. I couldn't be happier!

I highly recomend Michael Swanson. He is an amazing attorney and will be with you every step of the way to get you where you need to be. I couldnt have asked for any better. He has changed my life in many ways for the better and really listened to me and my concerns. He helped me to not be so scared in moving on with my life and kept my children and I safe. He helped me with a Oder of Protection for my self and my children which is for 2 years and has walked me through a nasty divorce and child custody in which I am receiving Sole Custody of our children. Thank you Michael you are amazing at what you do. My children and I are able to laugh again and be happy and its ok.You gave us our lives back Thank you too the staff as well. Also Jeremy Sackett his partner has jumped in to help with different questions which was much appreciated. I will forever be grateful to everyone at Swanson & Sackett.

Mr Swanson was instrumental in resolving an issue in a long-term business transaction. I am grateful the worry and hassle is behind me.

Mr. Swanson worked diligently on my divorce case. He did not waste my time or my money, thereby earning my trust. I will bring any future legal matters to him. He has my highest recommendation.

I hired Michael for my divorce and he was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. I was extremely satisfied with the results I received. He exceeded my expectations and made me feel comfortable. He took his time to explain the process to me and was patient and answered all my questions. Every time I went for a meeting with him he was professional. He's an amazing attorney. I highly recommend him!

After the initial consultation with Mr. Swanson I felt like he was capable of handling what I needed from a legal perspective. His military experience gave me the impression that he would be understanding and compassionate towards my needs. I was extremely disappointed by the timeliness and responsiveness towards my case.  I had to call and ask Mr. Swanson to complete phone calls and paperwork in order to keep things moving in a forward motion.  Mr. Swanson was very defensive when questioned about the status of my case.  I had sincere concerns and my frustration was taken as being angry and hostile.  He could not, and it was perceived as he would not, answer my questions about time frames and actions needed to be taken on my part as well as his. In the end, our contract was voided and I was forced to find legal counsel elsewhere. Once new counsel  was secured, the response from Mr. Swanson's office to forward my case files was also delayed. My new counsel was forced to recreate documents I had already paid Mr. Swanson to complete. The disappointment seemed endless. I would not recommend him unless you want to waste money and time.

I hired Michael based on a recommendation-what a mistake. If your are reading this...let me save your some time. I spent $5000 for no results and ended up hiring another attorney. I HATE that I have to write this review and I gave Michael plenty of opportunities to earn his reputation but he consistently underperformed. Let me start with his communication...terrible. Numerous emails, phone calls, etc went unanswered and status updates on my case consisted of me badgering his office for info. What he did promise/communicate on strategy on my case was all talk and no action. Any finally, and pay attention, here...after finally doing my research on attorneys (SHAME ON ME), Michael's standing in the family law community is laughable at best...any strong lawyer would love to oppose him. Do yourself a favor...spend your money wisely and hire anyone else besides him. His work is sloppy, his office is shoddy, and his reputation is, well, have I said enough...?

This was the worse thing I could have done was to hire this atty. No communication for up t 3 weeks some times. No facts or discovery was done correctly they waited a month and a half to file my divorce so my ex beat me to the punch...I had not alot to fight over either and I am still cleaning up his mess with another attorney...awful..office girl brittany...even worse...don't do it!
