From the very first consultation, he had a clear strategy and followed through, executing exactly as promised. His communication is outstanding — no missed calls, no unanswered emails. His pricing is extremely fair compared to other attorneys who wanted nearly double with no real game plan, and his flexibility with payments made a huge difference.

Cathy, his paralegal, is equally amazing: attentive, kind, responsive, and genuinely caring. An exceptional team that I can’t recommend highly enough.

If you've found yourself in a corner and need a lawyer that you can TRUST will have your best interests at heart and will FIGHT for you?

This is the one. Don't wait until it's too late - Call him!

MELaw, has been such a life saver to me during this probate process. Ms. Cathy has been extremely professional and comforting to work with. She has made me feel at ease in the signing of deeds and other paper work with her calming demeanor and smile. I would recommend the ME Law firm to anyone needing a will probated. Mike is a great attorney to work with.
If truth was a meme, Mikel would be the face. He gives you the 101 in understanding the business actions that will help you win and realities of what he reads on his cases. I am located in another state but I was confident in his ability to negotiate on my behalf and give me the several scenarios I could go to get to the finish line. I recommend his business litigation and others services to anyone near, around and within Austin. Thank you Mr. Eggert

Attorney Mikel Eggert gave me a very positive experience with my legal issues. I received his undivided attention. He helped me with a will, probate, and living trust. He educated me and made sure I had a clear understanding of the law. I appreciated that he did so in layman's terms. My biggest shock was the price of his service. Very reasonable and he was recommended to me by the State Board. I was impressed. His humility and understanding exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend him.

Mr. Eggert did everything possible for the best outcome for my family. It was not an easy task, he dismissed one case and kept our loved one from staying in jail on another. Only regret was not hiring him quicker for a different charge. Thank you so much!!!

My partner and I worked with Mr.Eggert to navigate a tenant/landlord dispute. Mr.Eggert was genuinely personable, patient, and attentive throughout the entire process.
He was super timely with communications and most importantly helped resolve the issue without needing to escalate it to court.
I will definitely work with Mikel for future legal needs.
