I want to sincerely thank Mr. Trent for helping me through my reckless driving case after being clocked at above 100mph. It was one of the most stressful moments of my life and I was genuinely scared of going to jail. His calm advice, confidence, and clear guidance helped me stay steady through the whole process, and thanks to his work I was kept out of jail. The final outcome brought me a huge sense of relief and I have learned a serious lesson from all of this. I also want to thank Ruby for her quick responsiveness.
I am very grateful for everything Mr. Trent and his firm did for me. I cannot recommend him enough.

Five-Star Review for Michael Trent
I can't recommend Michael Trent highly enough. He's genuinely one of the most down-to-earth, caring attorneys you could ever hope to have on your side. When my family and I were dealing with an incredibly stressful custody situation, Michael stepped in and truly turned the tide for us.
He didn't just offer legal advice--he became a real advocate for us in a tough battle. We've been facing constant court challenges and harassment from the other side, and Michael has helped us push back effectively. Thanks to him, we've managed to shut down baseless accusations and protect our family's well-being.
Michael is not just a lawyer who knows the law inside and out--he's someone who genuinely cares. He treats you like a human being, not just a case number. If you're in the right and need someone who will fight tirelessly for you, he's the attorney you want. If you're someone who genuinely needs help and is doing the right thing, I recommend him at the highest level imaginable. He's thoughtful, caring, and has touched our hearts with his dedication. We never feel like just another invoice with him.
On the other hand, if someone's in the wrong and just looking to game the system, don't try to smear this good man's name. There are good people out there who truly need attorneys like Mr. Trent, and he deserves all the respect for the incredible work he does.
In short, he's an outstanding professional who truly cares and will fight for you the right way because Michael is the kind of lawyer who stands by the truth and his clients with integrity.
He's helped us see real progress, and we're finally in a much better place thanks to his dedication. We're so grateful to have him by our side and would recommend him to anyone who truly needs a compassionate and fiercely effective lawyer.
Sincerely, with gratitude,
The King family

My Trent represented my 17 year old son with a speeding ticket and got it dismissed with only having to take an 8 hour driver improvement class. He saved me from the high cost of insurance and he didn't charge alot because he was a new driver and so young (which I thought was awesome). I highly recommend!!
