Law Office of Michael R. Young

This man FELL ASLEEP on my moms consultation. How do you fall asleep!? My mom paid $200 for this. Crazy.

Attorney Clair Hurst and paralegal Jenelle Parmer were a power team for my custody and divorce case. It was comforting working with compassionate women. The communication was quick and clear. Worth every penny.

Terrible was called by this place by the attorney threatening me that if I didn't force my son to go with his mom they would file to have my son to be taken from me. Mind you my son has autism...very rude people here. I co tacted them to come to terms with them and never got a reaponse. Just wanted america to know how this office operates

FIND ANOTHER LAWYER!! Neither Janet nor Michael are competent. My simple divorce was dragged on for 2 years. They inflated the billing and dragged it on to get more $$ from me. They will not fight for you!!

***check out his yelp before you hire as well. Lots of similar stories. THEIVES. Do not use Michael R Young. He will pretend to care, all while racking up the charges. Here's what happened: my mother paid to have an initial consultation. A lot of places do a free consultation, however we were dealing with a very tricky case, so she decided to pay to speak with him. He told her that he didn't know if he could handle her case and that he would do some research and call her back the next day. He indeed called her back the next day and told her that he thought he could take the case. She was so relieved (as I said this was a tricky case) and immediately put down a $5,000 retainer, and he told her that he would send over the contract. My mom reviewed the contract and did not like the terms, she asked for clarification about some billing policies and decided that she would blow through the $5,000 retainer and then some, who knows how much more, so she decided not to sign the contract and asked him to refund the retainer amount. He then told her that he was keeping the credit card processing fee amount out of the retainer and my mom told him that he was not allowed to do that, he did it anyway and actually took quite a bit more as the amount he kept was almost $800. She disputed the charge with her credit card company. He then submitted a FALSIFIED invoice to the credit card company. He charged her for calling back the next day, after she had already paid for an initial consultation, and he was the one who suggested he would call back the next day. He also zeroed out the initial consultation charge on the invoice, suggesting that he waived it as if my mother DIDNT pay $200 already on a other charge, then added a $90 charge for the phone call the next day that he initiated. He also charged her for a welcome packet/beginning work for a strategy on May 4th when she told him on May 2nd that she would not be using his services and to refund the money. The credit card company said that he could charge the credit card processing fees if that was in the contract. My mom told them she never signed a contract, they then said "oh well you may have a case but it would have to be solved through civil matters." This man knows that my mother was going through an extremely devastating period, in regards to my brother, HER SONS DEATH and trying to see her grandson. He used that to STEAL her money, he did absolutely no work on this case except for a consultation which he double charged her for, he falsified an invoice and I'm pretty sure all of this goes against the bar association rules. What an absolutely sorry excuse for a human, let alone a lawyer, Michael. Avoid using this man at all costs, lest he rack those up too.

They treat you like Family here. Best attorneys in town

Michael helped my husband and I so our daughters could stay together and go to school with one another. We were battling with my husbands ex over which city our child would spend her school years in. We are so grateful for him and his legal team. They are communicative and on top of it. We ended up happy with our results. Highly recommended!

Very professional. Helped me get exactly what I wanted for 2 different cases.

Don’t recommend them. They don’t communicate with you at all. They let you find out all the information you need rather than prepare you. They don’t act with a sense of urgency for your case. They pretty much let you do it all. Until I actually spoke to my lawyer personally, was when he acted with a sense of urgency. But paralegal Kim wouldn’t say a word

Excellent! They're always professional, polite, and listens very well to your concerns. Chamberlain is the best!
