Mr. May and the May Law Team have earned my absolute highest recommendation for anyone seeking top-notch legal counsel in Northern Virginia. Two years ago, my family was thrust into a unique and extremely challenging legal situation that encompassed family law, contract law, and criminal law. We needed an experienced attorney willing to go the extra mile and to fight for our family because our case carried a heavy emotional weight and was very complex. Thankfully, we found that amazing attorney in Mr. Michael May. At every step, Mr. May compassionately explained our options, presented the risks

If looking for a great lawyer, I highly recommend May Law firm. Mr. Michael May was very responsive, knowledgeable and accommodating. Further, my case went from a criminal case to just an infraction which was an excellent outcome for my case.

Both Mike and Amelia were very understanding and supportive during my Family Law situation. They are superior in Family Law knowledge and worked their absolute best to make sure I was kept informed at every step in the process and that I understood my legal rights. Never ever did I feel like I was alone in my difficult situation because they both are caring and compassionate in their work and to the people they represent. Professional, dependable, always keeping the opposing attorney on their toes, and tireless in their efforts to do what is right.
