HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!

Highly recommended. I did my research to find a lawyer to help with our estate needs and chose Mike over lawyers who came recommended to me. I instantly saw his honesty from his website. Everything is explained and detailed without needing to call for basic questions. He is personable, friendly, and ...down to earth. You can tell he loves his job and takes pride in the work he does. You will not be let down, believe me, I drilled him with questions and he was able to answer them all with a smile on his face!

Amazing experience!

We had been looking for an Estate Planning Lawyer for about a year, and most lawyers were too busy or charged above average. Michael was helpful, patient and very knowledgeable in all aspects of the procedure and helped us get through it with ease.

Recommendation

I was very pleased with Michael's services. My husband had passed away suddenly and I had to get some financial things in order. He was very knowledgeable and very helpful to me, in making the choices I needed that would most benefit me and my family. I would absolutely use him again and would re...commend him to anyone that needed those services.

Estate Planning

I hired Michael Cahill to develop an complete estate plan for me including a Last Will & Testament, Financial Power of Attorney, and Health Care Power of Attorney. Michael was very patient with me as I needed to ask many questions and he gave me the time I needed to make my specific decisions. Addi...tionally, Michael clearly educated me on various items I needed to know for my estate planning. I have shared Michael's contact info with my estate executor and heirs so that they can reach out to him as needed. Thank you Michael for making this difficult topic as painless as possible.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
