great lawyer and I consider him a friend
I have known Michael for about 4 years now introduced through a mutual friend/coworker. He helped me during a very difficult time in dealing with my deceased husband's affairs. He told me what to do and what not to do and it saved me a lot of hassle and grief!

expert in wills
Very knowledgeable. Very enthusiastic. I had a lot of "catch up" work that needed to be done and this guy was able to handle it all. He has a very busy practice and you may need to wait a bit for an appointment but it is worth it! Honest. Compassionate. The real deal!
