Hired Attorney 2019-2020I was absolutely mortified and embarrassed when I was arrested for a DUI. Then to find out it was ENHANCED with increased penalties shattered my world! Luckily I was referred to Mike Panella by a close friend and I was impressed from the start. He will stand by you and fight this thing all the way! Enhanced DUI reduced to a Reckless Driving with everything cut in half and NO DUI Enhanced FINE!!! Please before you go anywhere else, look to Mike Panella for any legal help. I guarantee you will NOT be disappointed. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Mike!!!

Hired Attorney 2019-2020Michael Panella @ Panella Law Firm has been the best attorney to work with and I highly recommend him for your legal needs! He recently assisted us with a dispute with our HOA. At first, I wasn’t sure he would take on the case as he specializes in Criminal Defense, but thankfully, he did. He is a “dig in your heels” attorney that gets the job done! He is extremely intelligent and thinks outside the box when necessary, not just between parameters that the opposition may try to impose. He has quickly responded to every text, email and phone call even though I know he has a busy schedule. He is tenacious, brilliant and even funny. He can make you laugh even though you are frustrated by the actions of the opposition. He knows the law and is in his element when facing the opposition. He went above and beyond for us, was so dedicated to the cause and he always made us feel that we were a priority. He is also very honest and won’t fluff anything and definitely won’t make empty promises. He’s a straight shooter. Michael honestly has a passion for justice and is so driven to get justice for his clients, he was born to be an attorney. Thank you for the great results and standing besides us on this long journey and always making us feel confident of where the outcome was headed!! We are very grateful for all your hard work that paid off in spades!!

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
