Reviews

Michael came into the middle of a highly contentious ongoing case, and I had seen the inside of a courtroom on too many occasions. He was able to negotiate so well with the opposing attorney that we were saved from having to take any court action at all. We have so far been able to resolve the issue in the best interest of our daughter. I have every confidence, though, that if it is necessary to go to court again, Michael will work tirelessly to get the best possible outcome. He has been extremely fair with his pricing, and has made himself available even when out of town on vacation. I appreciate Michael’s dedication and integrity so much! Update 12/5/22- My case has been resolved without having to see the inside of a courtroom, and absolutely serves the best interest of my child. That is all thanks to Michael’s level-headed and forward-thinking negotiations with the opposing attorney, as well as his dedication to a solution. I can’t say enough about his genuine compassion in what is usually a tough and emotional situation. Update 3/6/23 I felt the need to update this review because, yet again, the help that Michael gave was immeasurable. I had to call him about a child support matter, and his common sense direction saved me a ton of grief, and again set this case in the right direction. I’m continually amazed at Michael’s responsiveness, as well as his genuine integrity. I see a lot of other reviews that mention this, so I know that he delivers this consistently to his clients. I have to say that he has single-handedly restored my faith in the legal/family law profession!
Lenny has been my lawyer for 3 years. He has been instrumental in helping me navigate and ultimately succeed in a high-conflict child custody case. Lenny took the time to really understand me, my concerns, my goals, and listen to what is in the best interest for my child. His advice is sound. Lenny has practiced a long time in the Broomfield area and thus is well versed in knowing the Judges/Magistrates, which aided in the preparation for my hearing. We felt like a team. I highly recommend Lenny services.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Michael McGonegal and his firm. I retained them late in my case. Despite the odds, Michael worked very hard to get every important detail from the beginning of the case. He seemed to be as passionate about my case as I was, in fact I know he was. His knowledge and quick work of filing Motions emailing the appropriate people etc. brought me up to speed. I felt very confident moving forward with Michael as my attorney. His skills in the Courtroom at the hearing were impressive to say the least. Michael McGonegal is SMART, SHARP, AND PROFESSIONAL. The case is ending, and Michael has withdrawn at my request, however, he continues to communicate with me until the conclusion. In working with Michael McGonegal, I found him not only to be an excellent attorney but an excellent person. He was not only my lawyer but at times was my therapist, my advocate, my mentor, and he was always there for me and continues to be to this day.
When I found myself without legal representation less than 24 hours before my initial status conference, Michael McGonegal returned my call almost immediately. Having very little time to prepare, he got right to work and had everything ready to go the next morning. By the time my divorce had finalized months later, Michael had essentially managed my case single-handedly, keeping me in the loop every step of the way. His approach was assertive, persistent, and strategic, which is everything you could ask for in a divorce attorney. Not only was I awarded the better part of the settlement, but he did it all without me ever having to appear in court – thank you again for everything!
I have worked with Lenny for over four years relating to my divorce and subsequent related issues. I have consistently found Lenny to be extremely knowledgeable about family law, impeccably ethical, genuinely concerned for my and my child's well being as well as being very easy to work with. Lenny has gone out of his way to find legally and ethically creative solutions for my legal issues. In court, Lenny is prepared and thoughtful throughout court proceedings. I can very honestly say that if it wasn't for Lenny, I most likely would not have had such an incredibly beneficial outcome of my divorce and in my other family law issues. I would strongly recommend anyone to Lenny. He is well liked, well connected and very well respected in the community.
