Michael James Giarrusso

I recently hired Michael to represent me after I received a Notice of Investigation from the CFP Board. Michael took the time to explain the process and helped me craft my response to the CFP Board, ultimately helping me to successfully resolve the matter when the CFP Board sent a letter closing thei...r investigation.

I recently received a settlement negotiated by Michael in a FINRA complaint regarding a badly represented REIT. I found Michael to be competent, always available, very thorough in all communications and on top of that very personable. I believe he did a great job of representing my interests and re...solving the complaint. Highly recommended in anything involving FINRA or REIT issues.

I hired Mr. Giarusso to help me recover some significant losses related to two real estate investment trusts (REITS), one of which went bankrupt, and the other of which has continually lost value over the last ten years. From the very beginning he clearly explained every step of what the process wou...ld be. Our successful working relationship always felt like a partnership. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for help in these kind of financial matters.

In cannot recommend Mr. Giarrusso enough. From our initial consultation, he was thorough in capturing every detail of my grievance. He also explained the scenarios and process very clearly and was always available if I had any questions. Due to his diligence and attention to details, I was success...ful in my suit and I could not be happier with his service. He is personable and showed a genuine interest in my case and in me as a person. I recommend him without reservations.

I recently hired Mr. Giarrusso to represent me and offer advice concerning a FINRA matter. As a financial advisor departing from the employment of a large Wall Street brokerage house, a dispute arose over monies deemed owed on an up front promissory note I had received some years ago when initially ...joining the firm. A former Wall Street employee himself, Mr. Giarrusso offered me considerable insight into both the mechanics of the debt collection process, as well as candid advice on the strengths and weaknesses of my case within the arena of FINRA arbitration. Mr. Giarrusso took the time to answer all my questions and was very thorough and efficient when discussing my case. After extensive negotiation with my former employer's lawyer, Mr. Giarrusso was not only successful in working out a repayment plan on the amount due, he was also able to reduce the debt I owed on the promissory note by nearly 25%.
