"I have known Michael Sawyier over 30 years. Over those years, I have become one of his close friends and a client. I trust both his legal advice as well as from a business perceptive.   
My work involves investments, lending and helping clients source funding for their companies. In working with Michael, I found him to be responsive, frank dedicated to his client’s success and forthright. Particularly, I have been fortunate that Michael digs deep into his cases to fully understand them, and problems that may cause either due to business practices or past incidents. He also suggests solutions where risks can be manageable. 
Without going into details we invested in a West Coast based company where the founder in his youth had the misfortune of getting being duped by being associated with a group of swindlers, and had to pay minor penalty. After due diligence, and seeking Michael’s advice, we decided to make the investment. This company under the leadership of the founder, has made tremendous progress and has large customer base. "

"I asked for Mr. Sawyier’s advice and counsel concerning necessary changes to my estate planning documents as a result of the passing of both my daughters. This was one more step in my recognizing, accepting, and facing that loss.

All the documents were prepared exactly as I had wanted in a couple of days after our initial conference his gentle and kind manner was a comfort to me. He carefully and effectively explained all the aspects of the revised documents.

He is truly committed to client service. I trust him completely to take care of all my future legal needs and highly recommend him as a person AND an expert lawyer."

In sincere appreciation,

"Michael Sawyier has exhibited three critical attributes in his work with me in the fields of Estate Planning and Real Estate. They are (1) high intellectual capacity, (2) exceptional thoroughness, and (3) a total commitment to integrity. To me, these are three powerful virtues if you want to get things right. In today’s litigious world, it can be quite costly not to ‘get things right.'"

Here's what our satisfied customers are saying...

Randy P

Having recently relocated to Indiana, we needed estate and trust counsel to review our estate plan, advise us as to compliance with Indiana law, and create updated documentation for us.  Michael provided excellent advice for us and researched issues particular to our plan.  Documents were prepared timely and accurately. Michael's assistant Tammy was most helpful, making the entire process easy for us. We highly recommend Michael and will not hesitate to contact him as again as any needs arise.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael Sawyier for a real estate transaction, and his expertise and professionalism were truly exceptional. Michael's attention to detail and thorough understanding of real estate law gave me complete confidence throughout the process. He ensured that every document was meticulously reviewed, and his ability to explain complex legal terms in an understandable way was invaluable. What impressed me most was his responsiveness and strategic thinking. He was always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer strategic advice. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney to guide me through such an important transaction. If you're looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and professional real estate attorney, I highly recommend Michael Sawyier. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients!

My husband and I have such peace of mind after completing our estate planning with the Law Offices Of Michael T. Sawyier
“Michael did an excellent job explaining the benefits of establishing a trust for our wealth and estate planning. He covered every consideration we had from how to protect our assets, establishing a trust, power of attorney, beneficiaries, etc. He used easy to understand examples to ensure we had a grasp on the topics and answered our questions effectively leaving us with the understanding that we were in good hands. He even went above and beyond and further explained how to secure our home with a Land Trust to prevent identity theft. All the documents we covered and signed were in a folder for us to take home and he emailed us electronic copies of the documents as well. We would highly recommend the law offices of Michael T. Sawyier for all your Estate Planning needs.

I have been a client of Mr. Sawyier for over 16 years. He's an expert in probate and estate matters. I have had several probate cases., one involving a first cousin who died intestate there was a over his estate. There was a great deal of emotionality involved and Michael did a lot of hand holding to lead me in the right direction. Another case involved work that I had done for my father as his POA where his advice was invaluable in terms of how much to charge for my time. He has done my will and Trust documents and is very meticulous with all details. I would recommend him highly.
