I’m ignorant of how things should work in the legal world and I felt Michael told me the truth. I believe it was the truth because some of it wasn’t very positive to my case. When I interviewed other attorneys, they didn’t have a single bad thing to say and just that I had a great case. Cost wise, I don’t think anyone likes paying for an expense like this but the final bill was reasonable. When moments were time sensitive, he called me at night or weekends and I always felt like he was my legal champion. Finally, I feel like I won.

Michael Frandina is responsive and strategic. He's thoughtful with his recommendations and very insightful.

I worked with Michael for close to 10 years. He was great and provided a lot of value helping us follow up with customers on contracts and protecting IP. I would highly recommend Michael and would work with him again should the situation arise.

Michael Frandina represented us in a matter involving potential litigation. In all of our dealings with Michael we found him to be very knowledgeable about specific law pertaining to our situation and throughout the negotiations he kept us well informed and was very good at explaining our options. The final outcome was a satisfactory settlement without having to resort to litigation which we attribute to Michael being a strong advocate for his clients and an extremely effective negotiator. Michael provided us with high quality and very cost effective representation and we would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal counsel.

Michael Frandina represented me in a civil lawsuit a couple of years ago. He was terrific: focused on my goals, thoughtful, unerringly professional, stayed on budget. I can recommend him without reservation.

I highly recommend Michael Frandina and the Askman Law Firm. Soon after reaching out to Michael for help with an issue, his quick response and attentiveness to my problem made all the difference. Clearly, he cared about my situation and he gave me sound advice on the next steps I should consider and made a difficult situation much easier to manage with confidence.

Michael M. Frandina, Esq. of the Askman Law Firm is a great lawyer in Denver. I recommend him wholeheartedly. As a practicing New York attorney I was seeking to find and retain a good lawyer in Denver, Colorado. I found a great lawyer in Michael Frandina through a Google Search on AVVO for a legal research project involving old state and federal archival records in the Denver Courts from over 100 years ago (circa 1916). He replied to my inquiry quickly, we discussed the project and I sent him copies of the meager yet intriguing baseline detail I had available involving alleged securities fraud and embezzlement case pre-SEC involving a large family brokerage firm with offices in New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado. He immediately and fully understood the purpose and scope of the project and tasks required. Michael produced and delivered clear copies of the legal records that we only hoped could be found after 100 years. Michael found them. He regularly reported his progress and was always available to discuss the next steps. Billing was fair, detailed and very reasonable. His work was thorough and performed in a highly professional manner. Highly recommended

My out of state employer declared bankruptcy and I was suddenly out of a job with many months of wages still owed to me. Michael discussed all of my options with me and helped me through the process of gathering information, signing papers, etc. Throughout the entire process I never had any doubts that Michael couldn't do this as well as anyone else. He was very responsive whenever I needed anything or had any questions, and was completely professional while still being friendly. I fully recommend Michael Frandina.

I had the displeasure of being named as a Defendant in a lawsuit against a former business partner. While I had no personal or professional liability, once named, I was forced to defend myself. I hired Michael Frandina as my attorney. This litigation went on for 4 years. The Plaintiff sought delay after delay in an effort to force a settlement. When we finally got to trial, Mr. Frandina was well prepared. He was in command of the facts and was able to represent me well in the courtroom. His respectful courtroom etiquette pleased the judge and was a harsh contrast to the sloppy and dis-organized plaintiff counsel. After three days of trial, it was obvious to the court that Mr. Frandina had a reasonable answer to every accusation and the Plaintiff and his counsel could not support their accusations with evidence. On the fourth day, Plaintiff threw in the towel and accepted a settlement of zero and a dismissal of the case with prejudice. While I did not enjoy being sued, paying legal fees for 4 years, or being on trial, I did enjoy being represented by Mr. Frandina. He did a commendable job comprehending a complex case and was perfectly prepared for trial. He was cool, calm and respectful in the courtroom. The judge was pleased with his conduct. I highly recommend Mr. Frandina should you be unfortunate enough to require counsel to represent you.

I engaged Michael for a short time to prepare for litigation against a service provider. Michael analyzed my case needs and gave me a strong proposal promptly. Mike was easy to work with, competent and supportive. Considering I am located outside the USA and not even American I was very grateful for his attention, service and care. I highly recommend him.
