Mr. Michael J Stein is the best south Jersey lawyer. He helped me with my recent buy of my house he was amazing. Very attentive and professional. He kept me updated on everything that was going and was also available to explain to me what was going on via email/phone call. We had a lot of dumps in the road due to sellers team, but he got everything done and I was able to close on time. He’s secretary is very sweet and very polite.

Michael has earned my highest recommendation. He is intelligent, hard-working, experienced, patient, professional, and courteous. I am extremely satisfied with how he handled my divorce case. I needed a strong lawyer I could depend on, and he did not fail me. He helped me find the best path forward for my situation, he made himself available to me at all hours, and he kept my best interests in mind throughout the proceedings.

Mr. Stein is extremely knowledgeable and professional! As a retired military member, Mr. Stein fought for my best interest when it came to pension, child support and alimony! I highly recommend Mr. Stein to all military members needing representation.

Mr. Stein was always very prepared, on-time, and responsive to my many questions. He clearly worked very hard for me and never allowed any aspect of my case to fall through the cracks. I would absolutely recommend his services as a divorce attorney.

Overall he came off as very arrogant and rude. While he stated to be helpful, I think he was more focused on taking money. I would not recommend him, find someone who cares for you not just how much you can pay.

I was very disappointed after reading such excellent reviews. I spoke to his lovely receptionist and forwarded my case information. I made two follow up calls and never received any communication back from him or the office.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
