I used Michael and found him to be personable, caring, a good listener and extremely knowledgeable in the law. Michael has great respect within the legal community. I knew I made the right choice when I came before the judge and the judge stated, "You know that you have a damn good lawyer representing you." That was the first sign of relief, that I'd made the right choice.
Highest possible recommendation!

Mike Winters was everything you could want or need in an attorney. For myself and unfortunately many others, you commonly reach out to people like Mr. Winters at your lowest point, confusion rampant, not sure what to do, fearful of what lies ahead. As soon as I met with Mr. Winters, I immediately felt like I was going to nail my case. His calm demeanor puts you at ease and makes you feel like he's had and won thousands of cases just like yours and you have nothing to worry about. He's not just going to cookie cutter your case and treat you like another run of the mill situation, he explores every path and possible route to get you the absolute best outcome possible. For me, he was able to get me into a Veterans Treatment Court program, which I had no idea even existed before. He was the catalyst to get my life back, and his intelligence, expertise, confidence, calming demeanor is worth every penny because he WILL absolutely get you the results you deserve. His court room demeanor is professional, respectful, confident, and you can tell he is WELL respected in the Lancaster Courts and law community. Through it all, he helps you to feel like a friend rather than a customer, or worse, a criminal which is worth more than you realize at the beginning of a legal situation. He gave me the reassurance I needed to focus on getting better rather than lamenting on what I had done. I'd recommend Mike 10 times over, you don't need to look for another attorney.

Twice he has taken on the role as my lawyer. What I love best about him was his direct approach with me. Listened to my concerns and what I would take and wouldn't. He is not a great lawyer but a great person.

Used him many years ago ( when I might of been misbehaving ) an a friend got into trouble so I recommend him to her. He is a Solid lawyer with great knowledge. I've recommend him many time to many people which all of them had nothing but great things to say about their results.

I was recommended to Doug Cody by several friends and family members. I hired him to take my boyfriends case, I paid the $100 free for a prison visit and $900 after that as a retainer and to have him at the arraignment. Doug was a nice and I seemed hopeful at first. This arraignment was one of the only times I was able to speak with Doug personally. Every time I had a question or wanted to check on the status of things, I was directed to his paralegal. Which is fine, however, I received several email responses from her that looked like text messages written by my 13 year old niece instead of a professional whose firm is being paid hundreds of dollars for a service. Certain questions would simply not be answered and I was often told “these things take time.” Which I understand, however I would have appreciated simply having my questions answered rather than being made to feel like I was a bother.
At this point I was having extremely bad feelings about this firm, but I was trying to remain hopeful. I paid another fee of $775 and this(I was told by the lady at the front desk whom I paid) would take me through the process of getting my boyfriend into mental health court and if he was not accepted, I would pay another fee for what came next. Ok. I paid.
A few weeks later, I was told I would be better off dropping their firm and taking on a public defender. That, basically they couldn’t do anything.
Which in my mind, I thought-pay for a good lawyer- get a better outcome.
We were given a public defender and I called Cody’s office on several occasions to see about getting some of my $775 back. This was right around the start of COVID, I was a bartender and obviously could not longer work and was waiting on unemployment and trying to make ends meet while my significant other was in jail. I was told by the receptionist that she would get back to me and was going to email Doug about it. I also sent at least one email to Doug and the paralegal, Carmen. I called again after that and still, no answer.
I even mentioned that I understood if a fee needed to be taken from the $775 for whatever they may have done in that time(which didn’t seem like much of anything!) but that I should definitely be reimbursed something as they did not get my boyfriend into mental health court or even get him evaluated for it- as they stated the fee was for. The public defender however-got it all done and had him out of jail within a month or two after dealing with Cody’s office for over 4 months with nothing.
My main reason for this is say be careful. Make sure you know what the fees are for and maybe ask for some kind of receipt that states what they are for specifically. Maybe this is an isolated incident, but I know for sure this one firm I would never recommend! Especially if you’re like me and need to be clear on things and have a lot of questions. They made me feel annoying for asking questions and refused to reimburse me anything during a time when I could barely keep up with bills let alone feed myself! Not their fault, no. But, considering I never even got a response that said, “No, we cannot give you your money back because x, y and z.” I was simply, until this very day, never given the decency of a response at all!!! Which makes me believe, I very well should have gotten my money back and they are just greedy people!

We were very impressed with Stephen Grosh. He is professional, knowledgeable, and very personable. He does a great job communicating with you no matter what time of day. He is prompt to answer any questions and/or concerns, always giving honest answers. We highly recommend him. In the future, should his services be needed, we will absolutely be contacting him. He cares about his clients! Thank you!
