I reached out to various lawyers looking forward immediate answers as I just lost my uncle. I received a call from Mike who was very patient and took the time to listen and offer his opinion and the law as it pertained to my unique situation. There’s was never an attempt to get me to come in, to pay any fees whatsoever, just professional, compassionate legal advice free of charge.

I have known Mike Dippolito for 35 years; however, If he didn’t do an exceptional job representing me as a lawyer, I wouldn’t post this review. I hired Mike to represent me in a custody case. Mike clearly explained the steps he would take to prepare my case. As one step led to the next, Mike presented the scenarios we would encounter and he provided the legal basis for what were my best options. There was little emotional component to the decision-making. Mike presented the legal basis for my case and allowed me to make the final decision on how to proceed based on what the case law indicated the likely outcome would be. Ultimately, I never went to court, but the issue was resolved to my satisfaction. I highly recommend The Peoples Law Firm, and Mike Dippolito. The fee structure and methodology were agreed to in advance so there were no surprises. Given the stress of entering into a legal proceeding, I appreciated the lack of drama I had while dealing with my lawyer.

Mike was great to work with! He was thorough and he made sure I knew he was there to answer any questions and concerns I had. He made the situation we were dealing with very easy and handled it in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone.

I’ve known Mike for many years and consulted with him on many legal matters. Most recently, I needed a power of attorney for my son who is in the military. Mike’s system is done all electronically and I was able to log on to a secure portal in his law firm and get the document. I would recommend Mike to anyone who is looking for a professional lawyer.

I have known Michael for 5 years. I asked him to assist me in a credit issue but he recommended that I call a lawyer specializing in credit and bankruptcy. The legal advice was excellent and the result was a $500 expense to save $4000. I appreciated his assistance. Even though he did not earn any fee from me, his analysis on my situation was accurate. I would recommend him to anyone interested in obtaining a professional lawyer.
