Excellent in Every Way

Mike handled my car accident in which I was the Plaintiff. I was kept abreast of everything, of our status, he had great recommendations for me regarding my case and we were offered a settlement in terms of right around where he projected we would be at. His assistant Caren is also very thorough a...nd competent. No complaints here. I would recommend Mike to anyone for your personal injury or medical malpractice suit. I would absolutely use him again too!

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.
