Testimonials

"Larry and his staff are an amazing team!"

Larry made the whole court process comfortable and gave me the sense that things are going to be ok. He is professional, punctual and confident. Ive talked to other lawyers in the past and they lacked a lot of these qualities. Thank you Larry for being a master at your craft and helping the little people that need it.

"There will never a point you question the decision you made to work with him."

Larry is a magician. I recently worked with Larry to clear up an old DUI and several other drinking related infractions. Larry was able to get this all reduced to a simple charge which came with a couple hundred dollar fine. A simple fine with no blemish on my driving record or lingering probation. A cut and dry ticket and it was over. Larry and his team approached this with poise and handled my case with ease. If you want to work with someone who truly gets behind your case and works for you I would suggest working with Larry.

"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.

"He is genuine, kind and compassionate."

Larry and his team at Margolis Law Firm (shout out to Grace) went above and beyond for us. He answered a Sunday afternoon call when we needed guidance and assurance. He is genuine, kind and compassionate and prepared us every step of the way. I would highly recommend Larry and Margolis Law Firm for anyone seeking legal assistance.

"A Stand Up Guy"

Larry Margolis is a tough minded, hard working Ann Arbor Attorney who will go to bat for you and win. Not only that, but he is a stand up guy with a real human side, who treats his clients like their problem is the most important problem he has. I would recommend him to anyone who needed his expert legal advice.
