Client Testimonials
The very first time I ever visited Michigan Auto Law I knew they were different. They made me feel like family from day one. I never felt like I was a number. Josh treated me with the utmost respect. Whenever I needed anything, Josh and his team were on it right away. I felt as if my big brother was helping me with my case, not an actual attorney. That is how great Josh is. There is no doubt that Michigan Auto Law gets the credit they deserve. I will be sure to recommend others to this great, warm, and professional law firm.LOAD MORE
