I cannot stress how lucky I am to have been referred to Michelle Cote for legal support with a motor vehicle accident. Since day one, Michelle’s written and verbal communications have been outstanding, detailed, and easy-to-understand. She effectively explained the entire process, the strategic approach, and potential timeframes. Michelle’s empathy throughout the process was supportive and encouraging. Overall I am extremely pleased with Michelle and her professionalism. I highly recommend Michelle and her legal services.

Michelle helped my family through selling our home. She was amazing, always answering our questions and filling us in with any new news. We appreciate all you did and how fast and how on top of things she stayed. She made this easy and less stressful.

Michelle represented me in a complex real-estate transaction and I was able to buy a multi-family home. The process was difficult and confusing for a first time home-buyer, but Michelle was very thorough and made sure I had all the legal protections in place. She went through each document meticulously and made sure that I understood everything I was signing. Michelle made herself available to answer questions throughout the process and took action to keep the closing date on time despite complications that would have otherwise delayed the process. I highly recommend Michelle as an attorney. I would turn to her for representation in any legal matter in the future.

I was behind on mortgage payments for a few years on a rental property. I kept having to evict tenants for failure to pay rent and causing damage to a house. I just wanted to give the house back to the bank. Michelle took over the case earlier this year and she was able to convince the bank to take the house back. It took several months of negotiations but I came out with $4000 cash for keys. I would recommend Michelle to anyone. She is thorough and persistent which are absolutely necessary when hiring a lawyer to represent you to fight against big banks.

I feel like Michelle is always looking out for me and my business partners. We have been working together for about a year and half and she has been available to help when problems arise and fast in response to any crazy question I throw her way. She works diligently to serve us and is also very proactive with her clients. I received e-mails from her whenever there are changes in laws pertaining to my business and impending filing deadlines. Though I know she is busy with tons of other clients, I feel like I'm her only client whenever we are working together. Michelle is professional, hardworking, and very bright. I highly reccomend her.

Michelle represented me during a landlord/tenant dispute where I was the tenant. She handled my case in an efficient manner since the beginning and was able to resolve the problem rather quickly. She was professional at all times, very clear in her communications, very knowledgeable in the law and was up front about everything even if it wasn't what I wanted to hear. I would definitely retain her services again if need be in the future!
