This Yelp review is due to his graciousness in responding back to me via Yelp. I had a legal inquiry and utilized Yelp for assistance. I went on several websites but received no response. I was able to email Mr Healy and get my questions answered. He seemed to care about my situation and although he doesn't practice what I'm seeking he took time to find out and answer my questions which was greatly appreciated. I can imagine he's a top notch attorney and it's unfortunate for me not being able to retain him but lucky for those who do. read more

After over a week of making calls, sending emails and being shut down it felt like I had 30 seconds left in the last round of a championship fight. Gassed out, eyes almost shut, backed into a corner by a 16-0 opponent trying to keep the fight from going to the judges. If you know the feeling, you can understand how time slows down, the room goes silent and you hear one voice yelling from your corner "Weave hook!" ...and in that moment of clarity you dig deep and blindly, weave, hook and connect. Not for the win, but just enough to finish the round still standing. That feeling of losing a match, but winning hope is hard to explain. Its a lesson you can only learn by staying in the fight and not giving up, knowing that when it comes right down to it, and you need help, you have someone in your corner to help you learn from your mistakes, train, come back and fight another day. That is what it feels like working with Michael Healy. He sees openings, strategies and angles no one else sees, and he keeps you in the fight even when you almost feel like its over. Easily one of the best attorneys to work with in Hawaii bar none. read more

Thank you so much for giving me a call back and giving me some valuable legal advise. I could tell that he really wants to help people and he is very genuine. I appreciate you Mr. Healy! read more

I found Michael on Yelp after reading his many positive reviews, and I'm glad I did. He agreed to review my employee contract at no charge, and I even offered to pay him, but he kindly declined. Despite being on his way during the recent Kona storms, he still took my call and allowed me to briefly explain my concerns, which really stood out. He was professional, responsive, and followed through exactly as promised. His communication was clear, honest, and straightforward, making the process easy and stress-free. He genuinely seems to want to help people and is not in it solely for the money. I didn't need him to pursue legal matters with my previous company but it was reassuring to me knowing an attorney reviewed the legal aspects of the contract. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive employment attorney. read more

After being led astray by a lawyer from legal shield about my case, Michael took the time to call me back and set me on the path I needed. Apparently there are time limits for when you can submit for discrimination cases, and without his help I would have lost my case before it ever began! It was such a a relief just having someone actually call me back and help me. Thank you read more

To be in an industry that tests the might of person, workplace and ethics Mr. Healy upon request for consultation provided genuine ethical advice when one seems hope may be lost.

He has compassion empathy and a unique personality that truly chows his character and core code . Thank you Michael read more

Soulfully Kind Hearted I found Attorney Micheal Healy here on Yelp! My case was not an easy one and other Law firms gave me little to no time or advice, made me chase them for answers, to just a shut door. I read the reviews regarding Michael's Professionalism and Supportiveness. That day I gave his office a call. OMG! I received a call back in a very short time, the same day and it was Michael directly speaking to me! He listened carefully to every word I said and would stop me for clarification. Michael asked questions intensely making sure to get dates, times and people involved.

He even discussed our case with a Cohort to be sure we would have strong and powerful representation.

I called Mr. Healy about a condo water damage dispute between me and my neighbor. Michael does not specialize in this but he was extremely helpful with going over my options anyways.

He does the hard work and at times may feel a little intimidating but trust him, he is highly experienced and knows what he is doing and I learned a lot from him throughout this process. Ultimately he knew what was most important to me and he delivered. A big weight was lifted off my shoulders. What is most important to his clients is what is most important to him.

Mr. Healy was amazing.

No one wakes up in the morning wanting to hire an attorney. I found myself in that situation due to a toxic work environment, and if you should find yourself in the same, including serious issues such as racism and whistleblower retaliation, I doubt you would find a better advocate in Hawai'i than Michael Healy. When I contacted Mr. Healy regarding my situation, he was immediately empathetic, but also spent a considerable amount of time asking me detailed questions about the situation prior to offering his advice. I remember clearly him stating multiple times during our conversations 'I want to help you,' which is a simple but powerful statement for any person facing employer discrimination. After retaining him, he remained communicative and importantly gave me his honest opinion regarding the options available and the best course of action, stating his preference regarding how to proceed, but ultimately reinforcing that he would support me whichever avenue I chose. Ultimately, he assisted me in achieving a very positive outcome in my case, which through the grapevine I understand was unprecedented in value for someone in my situation at my place of employment. I do not think I would have achieved this outcome without Mr. Healy. In addition, his rates were reasonable, and he was transparent regarding the retainer and scope of work. In summary, if you need an attorney to discuss or fight unfair employer actions with you, I recommend Mr. Michael Healy without reservation. read more

Adding another review to the list of 5 stars. Attorney Healy is awesome! I contacted him in regards to my situation and he listened with the intent to help. Even if there was no legal case that I could file, Attorney Healy gathered all the information needed and suggested next steps for me to take. Very rare would you find an attorney who will give you the time unless paid. Thank you Attorney Healy for the time and the advice. It has taken some weight off of my shoulders and I am confident in my next steps forward. read more

I contacted Mr. Healy for legal information and guidance during a very challenging employment issue and he provided outstanding assistance. Not only did he take the time to really listen to and answer my specific questions, he was able to explain the law in such a way that a lay person could understand. Mr. Healy also provided various ideas and examples regarding potential next steps which took a huge weight off my shoulders. Having never experienced unfair employment practices, I didn't know what my rights were and Mr. Healy was a great resource. I so appreciated his support and highly recommend contacting him if you are in need of legal advice or service regarding employment issues. Mr. Healy is extremely knowledgeable and a caring person which is a great combination when you need a lawyer. Thank you! read more

Mr. Healy was very kind enough to respond to my consult and give me advice. I understand lawyers are extremely busy so most lawyers didn't give me time of day because my case was so small but he took the time to help and provided me with knowledge I needed to prepare for my trial. He really cares and genuinely wants to help people out. read more

If you need a very experienced, honest and trustworthy lawyer, you came to the right person, Michael helped me with a legal matter and the outcome was better than anticipated. Mahalo for your services. read more

Talking with a lawyer or even pursuing legal help can be intimidating. I gave Mr. Healy a call because of yelp reviews, and everyone was right- very respectful and empathetic. Unfortunately, not all cases are to the letter of the "employment" law here in Hawaii, but Mr. Healy explains to you why without making you feel ignorant. Even though I have no case, client or not, he still listened to my plight and offered some really good advice. In a world where "time is money," I am grateful that Mr. Healy took the time to talk to me as a person and for his invaluable advice. read more

If your looking for an extremely knowledgeable, friendly attorney who see's you as a person and not just another file on the desk and who will fight hard to get results, this is the guy for you! I was wrongfully terminated from my job a while back and after calling about a dozen lawyers, I was starting to feel like I was never going to find a decent attorney to help win my case. A lot of lawyers acted like they didn't have the time, or that my case was going to be to hard to win. I even called the one lawyer who pops up all over the place when you google "wrongful termination Hawaii" and after getting off the phone with him, I felt like he was the defense attorney for the other side instead of an advocate for me. I finally found Michael who was referred to me by another attorney. Talking to him was like a breath of fresh air after speaking with the others. He listened to me, asked the right questions, assured me I had a good case, and said he would do his best to help. Sure enough he got the job done! He cut through the red tape and called the defense attorney directly to open up a dialogue. After some back and forth for a while he was able to settle the case with a very nice settlement that I was happy with without having to ever set foot into a court room. He kept me apprised of what was going on the entire time. He gave me his professional opinion and explained my options clearly and precisely every step of the way, and always respected my wishes about how I wanted to proceed. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome or overall experience with the entire process. I can't guarantee you Mr. Healey will win your case, or that your result will be as smooth as mine, but I can tell you with certainty that if you hire him you'll have the best advocate you could ask for on your side to get the job done! read more

Mr. Healy is very responsive and direct, he will be upfront and call it like it is. Mr. Healy's is for us everyday little guys whom just are doing the right thing. Even though I didn't have a case in the end, he spent his own time in trying to find every avenue to help me, he understood and was sympathetic to my situation the support did mean a lot. I am more than certain that if my case was stronger, no doubt the outcome would be positive .just by speaking with him etc I learned a lot. If you want a upfront, no sugarcoating, caring in doing what's right for you. Give him a chance and have your ducks in line! Thank you, Mr. Healy for your time! read more

I've had a tough time trying to get a little help on an employment accusation so I called a few places and left my info. Mr Healy called back and got right to his points and even though him taking me on wasn't in his advice, he still walked me through options and just another perspective on what I can do. He didn't need to do that, could have just hung up and moved on but he spent about 25 minutes with me. Give the guy a call! He's not going to rob you before help is given. read more

Mr. Healy assisted me with an issue, speaking to me on the phone and a follow up email. He was responsive, helpful, thoughtful, and willing to talk with me without having to fill out extensive paperwork. He provided me with guidance and support, and I would recommend him highly and without reservation. read more

Mr.Healy took his time and gave me informative legal advice regarding issues in my workplace. He guided and pointed me in the direction I need to go to get results from my employer. He also took his time and ran scenarios of how my issues could play out and what I needed to do to get the best possible outcome for myself. I would definitely recommend his services read more

I contacted Mr. Healy in despair. I was looking for an employment law attorney to represent myself when I receive my notice of right to sue. Mr. Healy took his time to ask me questions about my case and he was extremely honest regarding his analogy and advice of the events that occurred in my case. He has tons of experience with litigation and I believe that he solely wanted to help me as much as possible. He stayed on the phone with me for approximately 1 hour and 7 minutes to gain an understanding of my case, provide me input and allow me to ask questions. One hour of time is EXTREMELY valuable to any attorney and I am grateful that he took the time to listen and provide advice! Attorneys charge up to $300 per hour for their time so I am grateful that God provided me this time with Mr. Healy. He was sincere about my feelings. While Mr. Healy is someone I can trust, I will be keeping in touch with him in the near future regarding my current case once I receive my notice of right to sue from the EEOC. I am praying that he will be able to help me when that time comes but even if he is unable to represent me, I am extremely confident that he will lead me in the right direction and handle my situation as best as possible. **I will update this review in the future if there is further information I can provide pertaining to the status and outcome of my case! But whether or not he takes my case, I am extremely grateful he took his time to understand my case and give me honest advice. You'll want an attorney that is honest and doesn't beat around the bush or sugar coat things. Mr, Healy is the right guy to contact if you're looking for a dedicated and honest attorney from the get-go who is not after your $ who honestly cares about your feelings! He is genuine, hard working and honest. read more

Helpful, thoughtful, trustworthy, direct and did I say thoughtful. Mr Healy was very helpful and went out of his way to spend a considerable amount of time to review my legal issues.

If you are looking for a respectable highly respected professional who will "fight" for your rights, look no further, you want Mr Healy on your team! read more

Today is tried to feel hopeless that I couldn't find someone to hear my story. But after a bit hope and prayer right before I yelped the best Attorney for Employment Law I took a breather and told myself I will find someone. Coming from Guam and not knowing anyone here who would know someone good kind of took me away. But guess? I found Mr.Healy. He took time out to hear me out that no other lawyer did. I suggest and recommend Mr.Healy whether it's to pursue your case or if you need a great advise on which road to take. I'm glad I found him and will recommend him to everyone who is look for help. Thank you Mr.Healy for your time and giving me hope that I am not alone. Jessie Lynn read more

My family needed advice on a legal matter and Mr Healy was prompt in responding to us. He called us on a Saturday, his personal weekend.

I really appreciate his time and how knowledgeable he seems in his profession. read more

Highly recommend. read more

Mr. Healy genuinely cares about his clients. When I first called him, he wasn't available to talk because he had another meeting, but he told me he would call back at a specific time later. He read through the long summary of my situation that I emailed him and remembered to call me back at the time that he told me. He offered genuine empathy and advice when almost every other lawyer I called wouldn't look at my case. I highly recommend him. He is caring and passionate about what he does. read more
