"I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the incredible support and expertise provided by Michael Raysor and his team. From the very beginning, Michael was honest, straightforward, and truly compassionate in guiding me through one of the most difficult times of my life. Navigating the legal complexities of my divorce while dealing with a manipulative, deceitful, thieving, and toxic ex-partner was overwhelming, but Michael was there every step of the way. His deep understanding of the law and his ability to remain calm and strategic, even in the most challenging situations, gave me the confidence I needed to move forward. He (and his team) not only handled all of the legal documents with precision but also provided a solid foundation while I was managing the emotional turmoil of dealing with a covert narcissist ex wife. His insights were invaluable, and he always had my best interests at heart. Thanks to Michael and his team, I felt supported and empowered throughout the entire process. The peace of mind they provided me was worth every penny, and honestly, I can never fully convey how much their hard work and dedication meant to me. This team went above and beyond, and I will be forever grateful for their professionalism, kindness, and unwavering commitment to my case. If you're looking for a lawyer who truly cares and will fight for you, Michael Raysor is the one to trust."

"My father, George C.Farnsworth had Mr. Raysor for his divorce! He is not aggressive enough, as he was asked in the interview! My father was awarded truck in divorce and wasn’t given proper paperwork to drive it and was told by his secretary that my dad wasn’t a priority, and I asked when would he be and she shrugged her shoulders and said I don’t know! Would not recommend!"

"I engaged Mr. Raysor for my custody case, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. His straightforward and honest approach provided clarity about the case trajectory. In the courtroom, his respectful and amicable demeanor with other attorneys seems to resonate positively with the judge. Post-hearing, Mr. Raysor took the time to debrief, showing genuine concern for my emotional well-being. What truly sets him apart is his genuine care for the best interests of the children involved. His dedication to ensuring their welfare, combined with impeccable ethics and professional boundaries, truly stood out. The paralegal and office assistant are equally friendly and polite. I highly recommend Mr. Raysor for his respectful advocacy, profound legal knowledge, and unwavering dedication to his clients’ needs."
