The lawyer didn't look at the dashcam of the police. I was mentally ill, going in and out of the rehab for Schizophrenia and had a car crash.
The police wrote completely wrong details about the incident like I was in the car and they had to drag me out, when in reality I was waiting outside the car after I had the crash.
If he wanted he could have had the case dismissed, but he convinced my family for the plea deal. Since I was newly on medicine and didn't have my mental illness in control I signed the plea. Now I have a misdemeanor.
Like you know how lawyers represent you and find an angle to fight your case, this guy never did that.

Our first visit with Mr Lafay gave us something we had not experienced from previous Lawyers Confidence that he would do all that's in his power to help our situation. Their wasn't one question I could think of that he didn't answer with no problem, we felt a sense of security that we was surely in the right place, this was our first visit We knew within a instant that we was in the right place, right lawyer, for the Job, he gave us 100% confidence that he would work hard and stay dedicated to working hard to resolve this case, in the beginning he told us he would file some paperwork that was done, never did I had to call him up or check to see if the job was done he's a man of his WORD, we are truly satisfied with Mr. Lafay: I truly encourage anyone in need of a lawyer too seek Mr. Lafay office you won't be Disappointed.

First of all let me start by saying that i was legitimately guilty.im pretty sure thats the first thing i told him.i have already been to prison for 5 years for manufacturing meth and delvery and sales of that same meth. Then i got charged with the possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Let me mention they had a confession. However forced. They had it and the judge allowed it.hear this next part loud and clear for you real criminals who read this.minmum mandatory for this charge is 3 years in prison.that means by law i can get no less than 3 years but thats exactly what happened. The way he operates in a courtroom is amazing.they changed prosecutors 3 times because in hearings he made them look like beginners. Until they got their best guy.a real hard ass for wanting to win.and in the end i did 6 hours in jail.he sent his personal bail bondsman to the jail and had my bail posted with no money. Yes .u read this right.he also took my case on payments. And when i fell behind he let me work off some cash.who does this?no one right.well the classy people at the nejame law firm did that but more specifically mike lafay did this..also i never had to take off work for court in this year long process.i think i went a total of three times.in the end i got four years probation after the case was over and i was serving my probation he continued to be my attorney. He filed for early term two times at no extra charge.and i have been a free man for two months now.i have gained my freedom and a friend from one bad ass lawyer.#superman @ Michael Lafay. I truly beleive if had any other attorney i would have been sent back to prison on the express line.

A friend referred Mr. Lafay to me, and I am very pleased with how he handled my case. He was very thorough with all investigations pertaining to my case. Him and his secretary were both very communicative during entire process and I am very happy with the outcome we received. If you want an attorney who is ON YOUR SIDE Mr. Lafay is the attorney you want!

I've hired Mr. LaFay for multiple cases, and I have also recommended him to many of my friends who he has now also has respresented. He will fight for you and do everything in his power to get results. He doesn't just wrap you up in a bow tie and hand you to the state. He gave me a second chance at life. Thank you and carol so much for everything you've done !!!

December 2015 (DUI) was the first time I've gotten into any trouble with the law and I immediately thought of Mr. Lafay WHILE in police custody. I have a few friends who have worked with him in the past and they were pleased with the services they've received. Mr. Lafay knows his stuff and is great at practicing law. His services are on the “pricer” end but I am truly satisfied about the outcome of my case. He is worth every dollar that you invest into him. Though I do not plan on getting into any more trouble- if I were to, he would still be my go to, hands down. Thank you Mr. Lafay and Carol for everything you have done.

I wanted to take this opportunity to say how pleased I am with Attorney Michael LaFay. He represented a friend of mine and I must say this man knows his stuff. I found him to be an expert in his field, extremely knowledgeable, and confident. I am certain my friend would have not had the positive outcome, had he not hired Mr. LaFay for his attorney. I fully recommend him to anyone that needs a good trial criminal defense lawyer. Sincerely, NMN.

My family hired Michael 5 years ago today, Michael never left my side, even after my funds were ALL gone. Not knowing the Lord would take almost 5 years to take this to trial, Michael was there every step of the way giving everything he had to my case but asking for nothing. He was/is an amazing lawyer with awesome dedication to his client! We prevailed.I am free today because of the Lord and having Michael in my corner! :)

He saved my husband when all the cards were stacked against him. We was such a hard worker and uncovered all the lies. He made the ADA look incompetent. Five star lawyer the best in the business.

Never met a harder working person in all my life. He was incredible in the court room and way out classed the ADA. His experience and persistence sent me home to my family. He is the best no question about it.

Mr. Lafay tells you everything he knows you want to hear, but once you pay him, you hear nothing else from him, AT ALL. he does not keep you up to date or informed about anything related to your case. Does not respond in a timely manner, and is always short whenever you catch up with him. You will not know anything about a court date or anything until the day before, you have no chance to go over anything before you know you are in front of the judge no warning, no nothing. I wish like hell I can get my money back.
