  Micheal Glenn is a troll with little man syndrome. He is the type of person that everybody hates and then gets off on it because he was beat up and teased as a kid and now loves the power trip. He is super unprofessional and seems to ether be not very smart or a poor wordsmith trying to scrape together a halfway decent sentence. P. S. legal disclaimer picture in review is portrayed by an actor.

  Michael is tenacious in his work. I had a difficult divorce due to my ex spouse refusing to cooperate. Michael was patient with me and worked tirelessly to take advantage of all of our options. He was fair to me as his client and offered great work for a great price. I am very happy with Michael and will be referring him to all of my acquaintances. I will also be using him for all of my future legal needs.

  Michael Glen is amazing!!! He is BY FAR the best trial attorney in Hawaii! Michael won my horrendous 3 1/2 year custody battle, (after several lawyers before him did nothing for our case, all about the money) his courtroom presence is POWERFUL, detailed, and vigorous! He truly is a miracle worker! Michael, my son and I are forever grateful to you, thank you, for you!!!

  First off, if you have even a mild interest in knowing what's going on around you, don't hire this guy. Absolutely horrible communicator. I would frequently email him with questions and never get a response. The only correspondence I would get was periodic requests for information about finances, important dates, etc. I had no clue what to expect going into court. Despite his apparent disregard for making sure his client feels comfortable and well informed, it wasn't until our court date that my respect for him completely fell off a cliff. I had some confusion about a financial arrangement between me and my wife and thought that our court date was intended to work out an official agreement, but when he found out I hadn't sent her a recent payment he flat out accused me of knowingly neglecting to pay her money that I owed her. When I tried to address my confusion he literally would not let me speak and repeatedly spoke over me. He cited "Navy Regs" as what required me to make monthly payments, yet the actual article (MILPERSMAN 1754-030) makes very clear that it is NOT a mandate. He wouldn't listen, arrogantly assumed he was correct without having even read the article, and kept pressing me to agree to a 3k a month payment until I was worn down and reluctantly agreed. The guy's just a bully, and he'll leverage his years of experience as justification for not explaining anything to you. I know he's going to read this review and make some snide retort to it but that really just demonstrates how little he's willing to accept any criticism. Don't waste your time and money. You'll pay 5 grand to be treated like you're not worth his time and then to be patronized when you're understandably confused about what you're supposed to be doing.

  Micheal is great in court. He's very direct, quick on his feet and wity. Every time Michael Glenn represented me in court, it ended in my favor. Thanks a bunch Michael! (Michael has represented me a number of times over the course of several years - regarding a family matter)

  I recently assisted my friend with translations during her divorce process, and she decided to hire Mr. Glenn. Within just a few weeks, he successfully helped her reach a fair settlement with her ex-husband. Mr. Glenn is exceptionally sharp, knowledgeable, and direct. He doesn't sugarcoat or tell you what you want to hear—he tells you what is right, reasonable, and aligned with the law. His fees are fair and transparent, and his honesty and reliability truly stood out. Once the process was underway, he was responsive, efficient, and provided clear guidance, which gave my friend a sense of peace and security throughout a very stressful time. Mr. Glenn came highly recommended by other attorneys and professionals, and now we understand why. We are incredibly grateful for his support and couldn't recommend him more. Thank you, Mr. Glenn!

  Michael Glenn failed to represent us during my divorce trial. He actually did none of the things we asked him to do or look into, but demanded payment as if he was diligently working hard to defend our case. Halfway through the trial, he became belligerent, verbally aggressive and abusive using profane language when responding to us via phone. He succeeded in making the judge prejudice and unsympathetic towards us. We were miserably underrepresented as he worked more to assist my spouse's case than to represent us, the people who were paying for his services. At the end of the trial, he appeared to be severely unstable and unresponsive to our repeated requests for him to honor the agreement we initially entered into.

  I have had a horrible experience with a large firm here in Oahu, and found myself needing a new attorney for a recent pro se request. I called many firms in town- only 1 other attorney was willing to help me with my request (most firms want a guarantee of long cases with large payouts). I almost gave up hope, because most firms were not interested in a small pro se/1x day settlement & trial only case. I called many without receiving the courtesy of a phone call back. I truly did not think I would find a single attorney in my budget (<$5k) who would be willing to help me. Michael Glenn came highly recommended from other women in high conflict divorces, so I had reached out to him. NOT ONLY did he agree to represent me for short term hearing only, but his retainer was literally HALF of what another attorney quoted me. HALF! He was willing to retain for 12 hours of his time.... an impossible arrangement I couldn't find anywhere else. I so wish I hired him YEARS ago. He met all the deadlines for document submissions, he communicated clearly, and we actually reached a settlement in court before needing trial! He did not waste my money or complete any unnecessary actions! Thanks almost entirely to Michael Glenn, I got what I desired and I don't have to go to trial. Michael could have drug the case on in court and could have decided not to work for a settlement (as many attorneys do to milk more $$). Michael ended my case with a settlement, he saved me money, he was honest and authentic, and there was no extra BS. No extra charges, no hidden fees, no unnecessary billing, and no stringing me along for an expensive case. He knew exactly how to hold my ex in line in court. My ex tried lying to him, and he spit the facts back to him, holding him accountable. I believe my ex settled because he knew he couldn't BS my attorney and wouldn't get away with anything. I know that I got the settlement because Mr Glenn would have been brutal on my ex's cross examination, and my ex knew
