    Michael has been my immigration attorney and advisor since 2017, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. My case was extremely complicated. I already had a federal felony conviction when I faced a potential probation violation in 2017. My criminal defense attorney, Kevin, brought Michael into the case specifically to analyze the immigration consequences before we made any decisions. Michael carefully reviewed my situation and explained how the criminal case could affect deportation, international travel, and even my ability to become a U.S. citizen someday. From that point forward, Michael became the immigration attorney I trusted whenever I needed advice. I eventually accepted the probation violation and served time in federal prison. Near the end of my sentence, my prison case manager told me that my custody status showed "release to ICE" instead of a normal release. As a permanent resident sitting in prison, I was terrified that I might finish my sentence only to be transferred directly into immigration custody and possibly face deportation.

    I've known and used Mike Purcell's services for over 20 years. He is one of the most honest attorneys and people I have met. He is organized, knowledgeable and reliable. They don't make attorneys like him anymore.

    Michael is the best attorney that I've ever seen.He cares about his clients and assists them to win their case. He is angel and intelligent, he helped us to get granted asylum last year after five years that we have been waiting with another attorney, but thank God we found the wonderful attorney at the right time. You will never regret if you put your case in his hands.
