If I can give this law firm more stars I would! They have a conversation with you on a personal level in addition to being professional. They build the rapport everyone needs especially during difficult times. They do not pressure you to hire them because they state facts and they give you advice on a completely FREE consultation! I love that they are 24/7 and they text too I definitely have them in mind whether it is for myself or I will 100% refer! Don’t look elsewhere !!!

Panella Law Firm is the best in Orlando by far. Mike helped me a few years back and was completely professional but also confident in the court room. He is a pillar of the community. Thank you PLM!

MIKe Panella helped us through a very tough legal situation when our 19 year old son needed legal assistance in navigating the justice system. Mike gave us sound advice, was very easy to talk to, putting everything in layman's terms and letting us know what to expect and what our options were. In the end, it was our son's decision and with Mike's help, he made a good choice and the outcome was better than we hoped. Don't know what we would've done without Mike as our lawyer, but I am so grateful he was there for us and I'd call on him again in a heartbeat if we need him. He used the words "We'll get through this together" and we did, thankfully.

I owe everything to Dr. Mike panella the best lawyer and amazing person. Helped me out in 2 occasions and because of his incredible experience and wonderful soul I was able to drastically change my life and become the strong man I am today. Strongly recommended!!

Panella law firm was excellent to work with, Mike is incredibly professional and alway was in close communication with me. I would highly recommend them!!!!

I just wanted to share my experience with Panella Law Firm. I desperately needed some help with some very minor traffic tickets and I ran across the website for this law firm . I thought let me give them a call since everyone else I’ve been dealing with has been rather rude. I spoke with an attorney named Huda and I knew immediately that she was just a really nice person very knowledgeable and had A very good understanding of my situation. She listened to my whole story where the other attorneys at other places didn’t and she had a heart for what I was saying. She gave me her advice on the court appearance and how she could help me . I just felt that she just knew exactly what to do and was the right person for the situation. Even though it was almost last minute because it was less than two days until my court hearing she immediately took the case and was just so nice throughout the whole thing. She called me after court and I could hear some excitement in her voice when she told me what happened. She was able to get the judge to dismiss both tickets even with the citing police officer was there and not in agreement . I would recommend this law firm to anyone that’s looking for genuinely nice people that actually care about you as a person and don’t look at you as a number and let them go and fight on your behalf . Like honestly, if you guys have a traffic case I would definitely give this law firm a call. Thank you again Huda!! You did a great job and I’m very happy .

I thought I was never going to get out of my situation, my case took a toll for the worst and my family suffered for it. I was angry and felt overwhelmed with the system but Panella Stuck by me til the end (case dismissed). Thank you so much Panella Law Firm I really appreciate it.

Best lawyer! Honest and brings results! Got my case dismissed!

I needed someone who is able to provide me with a peace of mind. Mr. Panella was outstanding. He is knowledgeable, professional with a high level of empathy. Thanks to Mr. Panella my case was dismissed.

Mr. Panella is polite and professional.

Mike works fast I got a ticket on a commercial vehicle for using a phone Mike got me a subpoena for me within a day for my phone carrier and submitted my defense immediatly. Results got ticket dismissed and ny money back thank you Mike nuce guy responds quickly over all if you need a good attorney Pinnella firm is there for you

Mike is the BEST! Him and his team were able to secure the best possible outcome for my case. Just got off the phone from hearing the great news that after all the hard work they did I have no points on my license and I only owe the court $140, which is FANTASTIC news!!!! Thank you Mike! If I’m every in need of your services you are the team to call!

Great people. Excellent atty.

Michael Panella handled my DUI case. Throughout the ordeal, and it was definitely an ordeal, Michael was right there for me. He will return your call even if it's well after office hours, and he will spend as much time as you need on the phone with you. After 3 months of Hell, dealing with the DUI charge, Michael was able to get the case dismissed. I could not recommend anyone more highly than Michael Panella. He is awesome as an attorney but also as a human being.

Michael Panella was amazing. I hope I never have to use an attorney again. If I do will definitely use him again.

I was in a chaotic legal situation and needed help. I called Panella Law Firm. I explained my situation. I literally did nothing else from there & like 30-4 days later, the criminal charges, the traffic infractions... everything was dismissed. Kinda like staying at a hotel on vacation... you come back from brunch and the mess you made, is just GONE!

Sincerely Grateful!!

Mike Panella is an honest, hard working Attorney with integrity that genuinely cares about his clients. I called plenty of attorneys before I spoke with him and once I spoke with him I knew it was a NO BRAINER! He was willing to start on the case immediately, even with the circumstances of the holidays and his personal family vacation coming up in days. He did everything he promised and then some!! Mike is definitely someone you want in your corner.

I worked with Mr. Panella when I was a prosecutor and he was a public defender. I still keep I touch with him now that we are both doing criminal defense work. He is a sharp guy and is passionate about the rights of his clients. He knows how to get matters dealt with efficiently and he has the drive it takes to be a great defense attorney.

Great attorney who is honest, professional, and excellent at what he does using integrity and his vast knowledge of the law.

Panella Law Firm goes above and beyond when it comes to their clients. I have seen first-hand the hard work, dedication, tenacity, and knowledge that comes out of Mike Panella and his firm. Not only does he deliver for his clients, but Mike treats each one of them as his most important priority. The level of care and respect he gives to those he represents is something not typically seen in today’s legal environment. I’ve seen him take the time to listen to his clients without judgement, and defend them in court without reservation. No matter how ‘small’ the charge is, Panella Law Group will fight for you with all available resources (and there are a lot) and with a fervor like none-other. If you or someone you know has a legal issue that needs to be settled, there is no one better than Panella Law Group!

Michael Panella @ Panella Law Firm has been the best attorney to work with and I highly recommend him for your legal needs! He recently assisted us with a dispute with our HOA. At first, I wasn’t sure he would take on the case as he specializes in Criminal Defense, but thankfully, he did. He is a “dig in your heels” attorney that gets the job done! He is extremely intelligent and thinks outside the box when necessary, not just between parameters that the opposition may try to impose. He has quickly responded to every text, email and phone call even though I know he has a busy schedule. He is tenacious, brilliant and even funny. He can make you laugh even though you are frustrated by the actions of the opposition. He knows the law and is in his element when facing the opposition. He went above and beyond for us, was so dedicated to the cause and he always made us feel that we were a priority. He is also very honest and won’t fluff anything and definitely won’t make empty promises. He’s a straight shooter. Michael honestly has a passion for justice and is so driven to get justice for his clients, he was born to be an attorney. Thank you for the great results and standing besides us on this long journey and always making us feel confident of where the outcome was headed!! We are very grateful for all your hard work that paid off in spades!!

Mike is one of the best. He fought tooth and nail to get the best outcome for us. You can trust that Mike will fight for you and never take the easy way out. He was great through the entire case and knew the best thing to do in every situation.

If you ask me ever in regards to needing legal assistance I will without a doubt send you to Mike ! From the first phone call he put me at ease and before I knew It my charges were dismissed to a little whatever traffic citation. I was amazed !!! He and his team are incredible and always are there for you. When Mike delivered the good news to me I could Hear the smile in his voice and that meant so much to me knowing he was just as happy as I was! He cares and he will do anything and everything to get the best case scenario, or well for me we got better than the best case scenario!! Thank you so much !!! Changed my life :)

I'm writing this review sincerely, freely, and voluntarily, and without being asked. Today has been one of the best days of my life next to being released from twenty-three years of incarceration which recently occurred. My incarceration, has caused me great disadvantages and prohibitions, amongst many other things, since my release. Because of Attorney and advocate Mr. Michael Panella and wonderful and supportive associate Attorney Ms. Hud (Huda) Sal, who enabled me to obtain my driver's license back as it was being illegally held hostage by our great legal system. By doing this for me at no cost, i am now able to continue back into society, not only productively, but also reduces my chances of recidivism, gain further freedom, along with further desire, hope, and chances of succeeding in life! Not to many people come out after 23 years of incarceration with much hope and desire to succeed, but the ones who do are faced with many, many barriers, road blocks, and disadvantages just like I did, including license suspensions, However thanks to Mr. Panella and Ms. Huda I was able to get my license back and return to a more normal, average life, furthering my chances of success. Whoever wants or is in need of the best fighting, knowledgeable, caring criminal attorney and/or advocate you MUST consider The Panella Law Firm and their kind, unrelenting associate Attorney Ms. Hud (Huda) Sal! I would not recommend or direct anyone but Mr. Panella and his firm in Orlando, Florida. THANK YOU MIKE!!!!!

There is no one I can think of with more passion in upholding the criminal justice system than Mike Panella. He will work tirelessly to get the best outcome for his clients, and will treat them as if he was representing his own family.

The idea of protecting the defenseless and standing up for what’s right came to Mike at a young age, when he unfortunately saw the many injustices in the Florida family law system, firsthand. In law school his passion for the criminal side of the legal field blossomed, and after working for some time as a Public Defender, he soon realized that protecting the rights of the accused really was his true calling.

He worked hard in the public sector, often going out to crime scenes himself to conduct investigations and to be able to challenge the prosecutions case in court with firsthand knowledge of the facts. He was always the best prepared lawyer in the room, and had thought about every possible avenue and defense before deciding on the appropriate choice.

But public defense was limiting, and there were only so many options and tools at his fingertips. So Mike opened an office as a private criminal defense attorney, where he has completely maximized his ability to work for his client. His other reviews on here are testaments to how great and comforting he has been for his clients. Not only does he get fantastic results, but he will make you feel like you and your case are his top priority (because you really are).

If I were ever unjustly charged with a crime, I know I would want Mike to represent me. He’d listen to my story; he’d work night and day to make sure that we ironed out every possible detail on my case; and, if it ultimately came to trial, he’d be a zealous advocate on my behalf and do his absolute best to convince the jury of my innocence!

Mike Panella is a great attorney and is always available for his clients. Mike will go the extra mile to get his clients the justice they deserve. I highly recommend!

It's very clear how much Mike cares for the "person" instead of just the "client". As you get to know Mike, you will certainly be introduced to his humility, professionalism, hard working attitude, and willingness to do whatever it takes for his family, friends and clients. Highly recommend.

This law firm is like no other. They treat you like family and they genuinely care about your case. I would absolutely recommend them. Professionalisms and first class attention is what Panella Law Firm is about.

Mr. Panella is a passionate criminal defense attorney whose moral and ethical compass are guided by his faith. His compassion, knowledge, and experience make him an exceptional attorney.

Mike Panella and Huda went above and beyond to make us feel very confident. We walked out of court with nothing more than a parking ticket. Mike Panella Law firm truly cares. I am so grateful. I would recommend this law firm a thousand times. A billion times.

Mr mike is the best he made me feel so good about my case and he beat it for me to me mike is the best and I will like him to represent me every time my name is Orin mims and I support mr mike when they try to take my life away for mistaken me for someone else mr mike made sure I made it home safe

Mike is not only a really great guy, but he did what he said he could do!! Love this attorney!!!

What can I truly say about Mr. Mike Panella. I thank God for a man that believes and trusts in God. Mr. Panella was awesome in my son case. He walked and talked us through everything. He researched my son case and got the TRUTH. He encouraged my son along the way. We were very comfortable with the representation of Panella Law Firm. As we were about to walk out the door, we received a call from Mr. Mike. He told us that the case had been dismissed and there was no need to come to pre-trial court and that no further court dates will be made. I have to tell you, I called my parents, sister and friends and I told them THAT JESUS HAD WON AGAIN. I will never forget the kindness and patience that was showed to my family is such a terrible time in our lives. Thank God for Mr. Mike Panella and his associates.

After speaking with Huda and Mike for the first time I knew I was in good hands. He made me feel comfortable and explained everything that was happening with my case and all the possibilities. They answered all of my questions and put my mind at ease. I appreciated how easy it was to text or email him with any questions. He is a very genuine, kind, honest, hardworking, and compassionate attorney. He was able to get my cased dismissed. It is evident that he is very knowledgeable and has a passion to serve and help others. Mike is truly a blessing. You certainly want him and his team to represent you.

Mike was an absolute pleasure to work with an definitely knows the law. My outcome was a dismissal, and I'm glad he was brought onto my case. The guy is sharp, professional, and always available. He will break down all possibilities of your case, and advise the best outcome/scenario without pressure or making you feel uncomfortable. I would absolutely hire Mike again, but hopefully won't need to :) can't thank him enough for his hard work and dedication to his practice!

Mr. Panella is the definition of hard work and dedication. He will do everything he can, night in and day out to make sure that you get the best possible outcome in troubling times. More than happy with the level of professionalism delivered while dealing with the court system. 10/10 recommended to anyone

Amazing work!!! This lawyer is God Fearing, and fights for you! Him and his assistant Attorney Huda are an amazing team. They have been on the phone with me many nights until 1am or 2am just devising a plan of action and contemplating ideas and thoughts. I would recommend Mike and his team to anyone who needs criminal or family representation.

Mike is the best in Orlando Florida..He did an excellent job for me and I recommend him to everyone looking for a reputable attorney in Orlando Florida.. keep up the good work Mike and thank you again.. Jackie Devereaux

The best lawyer anyone could ask for

At the 11th hour of my life I couldn’t find an attorney to take my case because it was very complicated somebody recommended me to Mike Panella I was desperate Mike took my case and as disturbing as it was won my case he was a highly professional man who did everything possible to make what I needed possible and continues to keep updating me on the case I highly recommend The Panella lifetime as your go to attorney took all your needs I am highly impressed by his professionalism and concern and care for what needed to be done thanks Mike and thanks for reading me the Scriptures I really needed it he went be above and beyond anything and exceeded my expectations

Where do I start?!? First of Mike is someone who is not only your lawyer but a friend. He doesn't stick his nose to anyone or judge anyone! He is truly an amazing lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone! I MEAN ANYONE! No matter the situation! He has helped not only my fiance but my brother as well. My fiance case got dismissed after he was looking at 15 years minimum!! Mike's empathy and hard work helped him! Yall want a great lawyer you can trust? Hire Mike!!!!!

Mike Panella has truly exceeded my expectations! Since day one, he has taken the time to communicate with me, talk strategy, and has been completely supportive every step of the way. His overall professionalism both in and out of the court room is an A+! He is competent, reliable, respectful, and delivered results that I wanted plus more! I am so glad that I trusted him at such a pivotal point on my family case.

I was recently arrested on a case dating back more than 12 years ago. I hired an attorney to represent me and was assured that the case was dissolved. After hurricane Irma I came to Florida to work and was pulled over and discovered I had a warrant dating back to 2005. I was held on a no bond hold and extradited to Vero Beach. I hired Mike Panella to represent me and within days I was granted bail and released from jail just days before Christmas. My attorney was on the case like nothing I have ever seen before. He remained in constant contact with me and strategized with me to come up with the best case senerio for my specific charges. His understanding of criminal law is second to no one. He not only gave me real advise and an understanding how serious my charges were and what the outcome could be. He never gave me false hope or over promised on what he could deliver. He is a very serious and motivated attorney with a specific skill set that can win cases and keep your criminal record clean. My outcome was case dismissed. I can’t explain how happy I am and excited to not have those charges staining my future but I truelly feel like every dollar I spent was more than worth it and I hit the five star treatment from a real power attorney. Mike Panella is one of the best lawyers in South Florida and believe me when I say this you need this man to represent you if you want a real fighting chance at dismissing your case or being found not guilty. Even the judge complimented him and his knowledge of the law and judicial system and told him he hopes to see him in his court room again soon!!! Panella Law Firm is definitely going to be a force to be recogned with and Mike will defenitley be winning cases all over south Florida for a very long time.

Integrity. Kindness. Involved. Mike has shown me over and over again through the past 11 years that he deserves these adjectives to describe his personality.

This may be an unusual review, I never knew him as a lawyer, but I'm addressing his merits as a person back before his career in law and my career in branding. I assure you, people like Mike don't come along often, you can sense it when you meet them, and full heartedly believe that if you put your trust in him you will be making the right choice.

To begin, Mike Penella was hired to represent our case in such short notice, nevertheless he delivered with class, diligence, urgency and compassion not frequently seen. Mike was extremely dependable all the way to the last minute and I have never seen someone who's so dedicated to there profession and at the same time so caring for those he represents. Do you want someone who will represent you with excellence and compassion, I highly recommend Mike Penella's Law Firm. Truly a Blessing in Orange County. You will not regret it.

Mike Panella is someone who understands his clients, addresses their needs, and makes sure that they know he does everything in his power to garner the best results for them.
