Michael F. Dailey Profile & Reviews

Michael Dailey was my appointed attorney for 24 hours. He is the most unprofessional white-collar individual I have ever encountered in my life. The FIRST red flag was failure to contact me once assigned in a very time sensitive case. The SECOND red flag was when he did finally contact me, he told me he already spoke to opposing counsel and attorney for the child before getting back to me. I would think it would be prominent to speak to your client before anyone else, but I guess that’s not the case here. THIRDLY, our 36 minute conversation was as if I was speaking to opposing counsel in a court room, instead of actually listening to his client of the history, which I found completely offensive since he entered into a 4 year case and based his thoughts on the most recent (exaggerated and fabricated) petition from opposing counsel. Then, he proceeds to tell me to look him up and he’s a retired lieutenant after he fails to know the difference between harassment and assault in the third degree, and after he admits not knowing CPLR 321C. FOURTHLY, after I tell him via email I no longer need his services and wished him a happy new year, he forwards my email thread to the court, opposing counsel, and attorney for the child, completing violating attorney-client privileged information, Rule 1.6 in ABA, an Ethical Code that attorneys are to obey. A lawyer claiming 35 years of experience should be fully aware of basic ethical codes. The one positive that gave him one star? His behavior and this experience has made me realize if this guy’s a lawyer, I can become one too. LSAT here I come.

Michael Dailey was a pleasure to work with. He is caring and supportive and thoroughly knowledgeable within his area of expertise. We have worked with Michael for many years, receiving favorable outcomes in each incident. I highly recommend the law office of Michael Dailey.

Michael Dailey is my family lawyer of choice. He is a professional and he truly cares for everyone of his clients. Michael is knowledgeable, and responsible, if you select Michael to be your lawyer you can rest assured you will be taken care of by the best lawyer in NYC.
