Do not recommend him!
He charged me $3000 in the beginning for looking over the documents, almost all of that was gone before we even went to court.
He is well experienced but he lacks the motivation/ passion to actually work for you.(maybe unless you have deep pockets!!!- my opinion)
I got charged for a phone call that a third party (Louise Braun -by the way, stay away from her) made to him on an issue that was created by her, and him recommending her! He voided the charged and charged me the same amount for the phone call to dispute the charge !
He voided a few small charges, after complaining, but charged me all the things under the sun that he could.
If you are on a budget stay away from him!
PS: my opinion is that he knows most of his stuff but lacks motivation, and it could be worse than him !
His answer is exactly what I am talking about - he is confusing my case with someone's else case because he does not care.
He did some good things for me but also showed lack of interest too (did not show up to a hearing that he should have, not telling me the whole story, in a few occasions) but he is 100% confusing my case !

Michael is an exceptional lawyer who blends the knowledge and professionalism you need with the care you want. Going through a divorce is never easy, but Michael helped me navigate through difficult waters and keep the process on track. When the opposing side wanted to add complexity to the process he worked with opposition counsel and helped me reach out to my (now) ex-wife and communicate with her more productively. The final settlement was a fair was without wasted time, money, and energy. Thank you, Michael.

Michael is a great lawyer and got a result on my case that was better than expected. I was impressed by the fact that he always returned calls and emails and was patient with me even when I asked questions that were probably repetitive. He handled my ex-wife's attorney like a maestro conducting an orchestra. Needless to say, I was very impressed and that is not easy to do. I'm very thankful I found Michael and think very highly of him and his staff.

Michael Cutler and his staff went above and beyond with my case. I had been with 3 attorneys before being referred to him. After all the hard work they did I actually offered to pay more for his services than I was billed. Highly recommend!!!

I had a very compilated divorce in Oakland County and hired a very well known and "high powered" attorney. As it turned out, the lawyer was more interested in building fees than fighting for the best outcome for me. I was referred to Michael Cutler by my business attorney and it turned out to be the best thing that could have ever happened. Mike was reasonable with his fees and it was obvious that he worked as efficiently as possible. His intelligent approach to my case resulted in an outstanding result and my bills were very reasonable. The best thing about Mike is that while he worked really hard to protect me, he was also thoughtful of my kids and protected them as well. I really appreciated how he thought of all of us in everything he did on my behalf. Another thing I really appreciated about Mike is that he was treated with respect in court and everyone said hello to him while we walked through the courthouse halls. This showed me that he had a ton of experience and was respected by his peers. If I ever had a legal issue in the future, there is no one that I would call or trust other than Mike Cutler.

I highly recommend Mr. Cutler to anyone in need of legal services. He is very prompt with return calls which I like best because attorneys are usually hard to contact. He took the time to meet with me on weekends and evenings and he fought for my interest throughout my case. He explained the process to me and what I should expect. He was very familiar with the family courts.

I've owned a Remodeling Company for forty-five years. Thirty of which I've known Michael, and who has been my legal council. On occasion, I have needed his services to protect my reputation and right the wrongs, that unscrupulous of clients of mine, have attempted to inflict upon my company. I can think of no better attorney than Michael Cutler, to represent, on my behalf.
It's a good feeling for me, to be on the "winning" side of the equation.

I made the mistake of hiring a large firm and wasting a lot of money for nothing gained before coming to Michael Cutler. Michael took up my case and worked hard by continuing to fight for my rights as a father. The courts seem to be vary bias against men and kept trying to deny me more parenting time even though my ex was the one with a record! Mr. Cutler was able to remain motivated on my long drawn out divorce and in the end able to get me more time with my kids and a deal that allowed me to move forward with my life. I can't thank him enough for all his time and effort he put in and would recommend him to anyone.

Michael Cutler handled my case with care and confidence. He was always available by phone or email for any questions that I had and never charged me for brief conversations. He always kept me informed with updates regarding my case. He is very experienced in family disputes and provided me guidance with how to handle situations relating to my ex and our children. I had never been divorced before, and this was my first time in the court system. Michael kept me informed of the process and what to expect throughout my entire case. His fees are very reasonable based on the other attorneys I interviewed. If you are looking for a good attorney, I would recommend Michael Cutler.

If I could vote zero, I would. Mr. Cutler took my $3,000 deposit and before I ever stepped foot in a court room, it was gone. This was not because I had a difficult case or that Mr. Cutler did a lot of work on my case but rather because he charged for every little thing (he even charged for stamps for any letter that left his office on my behalf). I did not receive advice or phone calls to keep me updated with what was happening with my case unless I initiated. So I called him and when he returned my call, I was billed at $300/hr. If he dictated a letter for my case (some were form letters that just required a name change) it was never less than $50. That was my MINIMUM charge and I was charged for a stamp on top of that. His emails, same thing. Then he wasted money on some correspondence with my ex's attorney that I knew nothing about. Had I been consulted, I would have taken care of it myself. His apathy and greed ended up costing me so much, I now get distressed every time I think about it! I cannot go into that because I have to stick to facts on a public forum or it could be considered slander. In conclusion, I wish I had read some of these negative reviews before I hired him and that is the reason I am writing this one. Maybe I can save someone from making the same mistake that I did when I hired him.

My divorce was settled over 3 years ago. At first, I thought it wasn't fair, mostly because any man in Wayne County is going to be treated unfairly, in my opinion. Now, I've come to the realization that what Michael actually worked out for me was actually in my favor, especially after talking to other men that were recently divorced. Michael is an extremely competent lawyer, and is truly out for your best interests.

Unfortunately I was very dissatisfied with the service that I received. I was charged 162 dollars for Mr. Cutler to write and mail out 2 letters that were a change of date for a motion. He changed the date because the original date that he scheduled didn’t work for him. After the motion I was charged 135 for a letter about what the order that was placed said... I was there. I also had a copy of the order. Unfortunately, the end game was I had to get a different attorney to fix the mess Mr. Cutler made. I made a poor decision signing a contract with Mr. Cutler.

A hack with bills to pay. I've worked with several attorneys on cases from traffic tickets to lawsuits with hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line and they have all been honest hard working people - until now. This guy is just trying to line his pockets as fast as he can.

Foolishly, I hired this guy to review a simple contract. He charged me thousands of dollars and clearly never even looked at it. I had to find all of the errors and omissions myself. He didn't even notice that the contract we were reviewing had some other person's name on it on the very first line (not mine!).

If you need a good attorney, always get a referral.

I have been using Michael Cutler's services for over 20 years. He always gave me good and sound advice. including when not to wast my time and money to pursue an issue that was a waste of time. I would recommend him to anyone including my own mother.

It seems Michael Cutler started out his career being a lawyer that really cared about his clients, but now it seems he's more concerned about billing his clients, such as multiple $40 charges for reading an email his client sends him just to name a few. Watch your pocket book with this guy.....
