Testimonials

"Without a doubt, the best attorney in Ann Arbor!"

Mr. Margolis expertise, professionalism, and dedication to his clients are unparalleled. From start to finish, he and his staff were phenomenal I couldn’t have asked for better representation. Highly recommend!

"The Margolis Law Firm was extremely helpful in getting charges dropped against my husband"

My husband was arrested because of an unfortunate situation that did not warrant the seriousness of the charges he was facing. I hired Laurence Margolis, for a very reasonable fee, to help our family in this very scary time in our lives. Within two weeks, “Larry” had arranged for the charges to be dropped by the prosecution. I cannot thank Mr. Margolis and his office enough for the assistance they provided my husband. I would definitely recommend his office to friends and family, or anyone who needs a lawyer!

"Great"

Larry took on a tough case that involved my son. Larry did and extraordinary job. We are extremely grateful. And we would highly recommend Larry.

"Great attorney – personal, smart, aggressive – and he does it all with ease and a smile!"

I met Mr. Margolis in the Fall 2010, literally almost 5 years to the date of this writing. He was referred to me by a professional colleague. At the time of this referral, my life was in shambles due to stress and anxiety over a legal matter which over the course of several months was able to be resolved only because I had such a dedicated and tireless advocate representing me, Larry Margolis. Simply put, he did not let the other attorney representing my adversary in our negotiation get the upper hand – he helped me to stand steadfast and get an appropriate resolution to this matter, which ultimately has allowed me to get on with my life in a very productive manner.

If you are looking for a consummate professional who is able to do laps around just about any other attorney without that attorney knowing what is taking place – look to no further than Larry Margolis.

"If and when I need a lawyer again, I’ll happily call Larry again."

Larry was amazing! He was professional, charming, and was upfront with the process while transparent with the cost. Him and his staff were extremely responsive whenever I had questions or when my case progressed.
