Empathy is everything

We hired Michelle to represent us for an out of district placement for our daughter in 3rd to 4th Grade with our Public School District. She was always concise, knowledgeable about the process & practical about the risks in our case. Her professional network with public school legal counterparts w...as very useful. We won an out of district placement in 14 months and subsequent extensions over the years. If there is one reason why Michelle is so good it’s empathy. She really cares about winning a better education for special education children. She cut through the waffle at IEP meetings with teachers. She cares and respects what parents go through. She always tried to reduce risk and legal costs. Her professional network is extensive and personal chemistry with our neuropsychologist, advocate and special education schools make her a lawyer that gets results. Our daughter is happy, making good progress and has a better future because of Michelle’s work.

Avvo Rating

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.
