Clients Have Said

“I have been represented by an attorney three times in my life, Michael has been by far the best. Several times he suggested I do certain things to save money, things that his staff could have done but he cared about my financial burden. He is professional, intelligent and hard working.”
– Peter, February 2018

“I had an extremely good experience with this man. He is very straightforward and to the point. I was referred to him by an acquaintance. I ended up firing a lawyer I had and hired Mr. Schreiber. My previous attorney did not want to fight for me whatsoever and I was told that I was going to get prison time. Mr. Schreiber got me probation and the correct charges for what happened. I would highly recommend him.”
– Anthony T., January 2018

“Great job in getting my case rightfully dismissed. Thank you very much!”
– K.S., March 2018/b>
