"If I could give them 6 stars I would. When I first called Ben Michael I was nothing but a scared fool that made a mistake that landed me in jail. The bond as astronomical. Not to mention the fact that something like this had never happened to me before. I also was not rolling in money and my greatest fear was that I would not be able to afford a firm with a success rate as high as theirs. Not only was their fees reasonable, but they also gave me such sound advice that kept me calm and lowered my anxiety to a manageable level. My case was assigned to Atty. Deeb and his assistant Roshie. I can't give those two as much credit as they deserve. They weren't only knowledgeable about the court proceedings and strategy that I needed to adapt, but their encouragement and help went far beyond my expectations. The outcome has been very favorable. I wanted to give them that credit and express my gratitude with this review. I would strongly recommend having them represent you."

"Last year my family was faced with a difficult situation when my wife was arrested. A mistake she had made years ago resurfaced and we weren´t prepared. She had three felony charges and was facing years. I must have called every law firm in Austin, but my gut told me that Michael and Associates was the right choice for us. Joseph Deebs was the Attorney that worked on my wife´s case. Joseph was professional, kind and he gave me hope in a time I was starting to feel hopeless. It felt good having him in our corner. I honestly felt proud and smart for choosing the right Law firm. For the first time in years, my wife is free and doesn´t have to look over her shoulder. She ended up only spending three weeks in county and less than a year of probation. Now this is all in her past. Thank you Joseph."

"My attorney, Joseph Deeb made prompt timing to correspond back to me. Just know when lawyers are in court they are not allowed to whip out their phone to pick up your call they can get in trouble for that. Joseph was prompt to Text me back asap if he was in court, then he would call as soon as he got out. His legal assistant (Roshie) also kept in touch as well quickly. She is very kind, informative, diligent & efficient They all kept me abreast of my situation, answered all my questions, had empathy for my worries, helped me out tremendously. Offered solutions but was also open to my suggestions about my situation. He was able to clear my case with minimal court appearances for me. I highly recommend Joseph for those facing any charges."

"Michael and Associates is definitely the firm to go with. I had an excellent experience working with Mr. Deeb and Roshie. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. Mr. Deeb took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I was informed and comfortable throughout the entire process. Roshie was equally outstanding—organized, kind, and always quick to follow up on any questions or updates. Their teamwork made a stressful situation feel manageable and smooth. Most importantly, they delivered the outcome I had hoped for! I couldn't be more grateful. I highly recommend Mr. Deeb and Roshie to anyone looking for knowledgeable, dedicated, and trustworthy legal representation."

"Joseph Deeb and his legal assistant Roshie provided outstanding legal support during a critical time. Joseph was sharp, focused, and clearly committed to the outcome he didn't just handle the case, he fought for it. His communication was consistent and clear, keeping us informed every step of the way. Roshie was equally reliable, always quick to respond and incredibly organized. Together, they made a stressful process feel manageable and ensured nothing fell through the cracks. Their professionalism, urgency, and compassion stood out from day one. I highly recommend Joseph and his team without hesitation."

"If Matthew McConaughey practiced law instead of making Lincoln commercials, he'd probably be a lot like Joseph at Michael & Associates: calm, confident, and unshakably cool under pressure. From the moment we started, Joseph took the wheel (yes, like in the Lincoln), handled every twist and turn with ease, and got me to a result that was better than I hoped. He kept me informed without overwhelming me, explained everything clearly, and made me feel like my case wasn't just another file in the cabinet. Professional, responsive, and just the right amount of swagger. Highly recommend."
