His Early Career

Attorney Michael Mullen began his legal career as an assistant district attorney in the Nassau County District Attorney's Office in 2002. During his tenure as a prosecutor, he gained valuable insight into how the police investigate and prosecute crimes. He quickly earned a reputation among his peers as a formidable trial attorney and most of his trials resulted in guilty verdicts.

Michael successfully prosecuted hundreds of cases ranging from attempted murder, to robbery, burglary, assault, forgery, and money laundering to driving while intoxicated (DWI). As a prosecutor, he tried multiple DWI cases to verdict ranging from felonies to misdemeanors. He also participated in the training for Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST), which was sponsored by the Nassau County Police Department.

In 2005, Michael stepped down from his position as an assistant district attorney because of his desire to expand his trial and litigation skills. He worked as a trial attorney for a prestigious boutique civil law firm in Manhattan and gained valuable trial experience. He also acquired in-depth knowledge of no-fault laws and regulations by investigating and trying fraud cases on behalf of insurance companies.

In late 2006, he opened The Law Offices of Michael Mullen, where he strives to obtain justice for the criminally accused and protect their freedom at all costs. He currently represents people charged with all types of crimes ranging from DWI, to white collar crimes and murder in the state and federal courts.

He understands how these businesses operate as well as how best to defend them against prosecution.
