At the Law Office of Michael Cougar, we strive to make the complex legal process less intimidating by helping our clients understand what is happening in plain language. Our goal is to help people throughout Santa Cruz, California, and the surrounding communities in bankruptcy, family law and criminal defense matters. Understanding your options and the possible ramifications of each choice can help make the process less stressful.

We take a holistic approach to handling legal matters. When you contact our firm, we will discuss the nature of your legal matter, but we will also help you determine what approach would be most effective. Our legal counsel is focused on finding a solution that will be beneficial, lasting and financially sound.
