Michael Doolittle, Esq.
5 Star Reviews
“The representation given by Mr. Doolittle in our custody case was superb. His courtroom demeanor and tactics were relentless, as though he were fighting for his own child. I highly recommend Mr. Doolittle and we are grateful he was on our side instead of the opposition.”

“I hired Attorney Michael Doolittle to handle my divorce, and he was prompt, professional and fair with fees, in my humble opinion. I highly recommend him to anyone needing the legal services he specializes in.”
Scott
“Mr Doolittle is a very knowledgeable attorney. I had the pleasure of consulting with him on 2 matters and both times he was professional, thorough, and accommodating with his time. Not only was he helpful with his answers to my legal questions, but he seemed to know a lot about various secondary organizations which were pertinent in my situation, and pointed me in the right direction on matters outside his expertise/function. I'm very happy with his contribution and will surely call upon him should I face more legal disputes in the future.”

What Makes Attorney Michael Doolittle Uniquely Qualified To Represent You?
Michael Doolittle is a seasoned attorney with 38 years of experience. During his career he has successfully tried hundreds of court trials and dozens of jury trials. In 2016 he decided to return to his legal roots in family law, criminal defense and juvenile defense and formed Michael Doolittle PC.
I am an attorney admitted to practice in all Federal and State Court’s in IDAHO since 1982, and I am also a member of the bar of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. I have practiced in small firms, mid-sized firms and as a solo practitioner in my 38 years of legal practice, and since 1982 I have practiced at one time or another in almost every area of law. I have successfully tried dozens of jury trials and hundreds of court trials during my legal career. In 2016 I looked back over my last 20 years of practice and realized that I had made career decisions based upon circumstance and what others wanted, rather than practicing in the legal areas I enjoyed. I decided to return to my roots in the practice of law – family law, guardianships, probate, criminal defense and juvenile defense. In 2017, I opened Michael Doolittle PC in order to use my life experience and my many years of experience to provide experienced, compassionate help to my clients in the most difficult times of their lives.
