I highly recommend Mike Kelly for anyone needing a dedicated and compassionate attorney. After a serious injury, I was fortunate to have Mike guide me through the legal process. He took the time to answer all my questions, making sure I understood every step along the way. His team worked diligently to gather all the necessary evidence, showing real commitment to my case. When it came time for mediation with the insurance company, Mike was fully there for me, offering the support I needed during a challenging time. I’m grateful for his help and professionalism throughout this experience.

They (Mike) gave out incorrect information on civil cases to me today and declined to look any further into it to confirm what he was saying. I called today asking what options I would have for a suit for negligence against the city, and was told that I can NOT sue the police for negligence alone, it would have to be a civil right.. being treated fairly as part of the community they serve falls under that umbrella..
I told him I didn’t think that he was 100% correct. He told me ‘I don’t want to argue with you’….
So, afterwards I spoke with another attorney elsewhere, whom immediately took my case and confirmed they had provided misleading information.
Though police negligence is hard to prove, it’s not impossible. You can also sue anyone you want anytime, the question is if it’s winnable or not. So why not just say ‘no thanks, we can’t help on that. You can sue your mom for not hugging you if you wanted, but probably won’t be successful. I digress.
But, it’s actually simple to understand after doing my own research. We would need to file a 1983 suit, and prove that they had caused physical, mental AND emotional injuries.

I’d keep looking and not click on the paid promotion here if I had a do over.

Noel, Marcia, Darren, and everyone that I encountered at the law office were all very professional and prompt with their communications. I've used them twice for separate accidents and they were instrumental in helping me and settling my accidents. I would highly recommend them to any family and friends!

I was hit by a car while driving my moped. Didn't have health insurance at the time and required multiple surgeries and several months off before I could think about working again. Josh negotiated with the hospital to get them to accept a smaller payment, since I'm not rich and the driver who hit me only had $100,000 in liability insurance. He was also able to get a significant amount of that set aside for me so that I could recover financially from being out of work for so long, which went beyond my expectations of what was possible. Throughout the process I found him to be professional and helpful, willing to explain everything that I didn't understand about the legal issues. He responded to all of my calls/texts within 24 hours which was reassuring in itself. I would recommend Josh to anyone in a similar situation and I would assume that the other lawyers at the firm are of similar high quality.

My Divorce Decree called for specific performance. As the deadline approached, the ex-spouse has not acted on the agreed obligations. I came to Mr. Baker for help. Mr. Baker listened to me, reviewed the decree, and provided sound legal advice. Joseph eloquently conveyed to the ex, the consequences that will follow, if the agreed performance not met. Joseph helped me navigate unfamiliar territory and assisted in getting the specific performance out of the other side, timely.

I later returned to Mr. Baker for another legal advice. In the world we live today, having an excellent legal advisor on your side is extremely valuable. I would strongly recommend Joseph for any family law related issue.
