Owner of Beast equipment

Mr. Baer is not your typical lawyer that pushes you through a secretary and just treats you like a "file", he is Very personal and wants to make sure you and your family are in the correct place and puts the the "lawyer stuff" for later, he responds to every call or email within minutes and I never f...eel like it's about buisness only, it's about making sure Everything goes smooth and then making sure my buisness, my family, and me make ONLY the correct decisions

Great attorney

Michael was our attorney in a business/real estate deal. There has been complications which at some point might have break the deal. But Michael helped us in a very professional manner and handled all matters very carefully. I highly recommend him and will always consult him in any legal matter we fa...ce.

Excellent Business Attorney

I own a small business and needed some legal advice. Mr. Baer was excellent and super responsive. He dealt with the various legal issues that I raised and was conscious of his billing. He was extremely responsive and assisted me tremendously. I can't recommend him highly enough.

A great lawyer that's a GREAT person? Wow!

I have been working with Michael for the past 6 years both on a professional capacity providing legal services for my company as well as on a personal capacity with various legal issues. Michael is responsive, helpful, professional and has steered us clear of many situations that had the potential... of becoming unpleasant. He has assisted me with employment law, risk mitigation, terms of service, general business contracts, and many other areas of business. Michael is always happy to help and is more than fair with his billing - something I find astounding given my experience with many other law firms I have worked with over the years. Knowing that I have great legal services is giving me piece of mind and helping me run my company smoothly. Michael is truly a generous, people-loving person and represents me and my businesses with complete fairness and respect. I recommend Michael fully to anyone that needs legal assistance in the areas of practice that he covers. You will not find anyone that handles themselves better! Thank you Michael for being a wonderful attorney and a wonderful man!

A Thoughtful & Genuine Attorney

I've had the pleasure of knowing Michael for the past five years in a professional capacity. Michael has gone above and beyond for us on multiple occasions and has consistently provided exceptional legal insight to our growing business. Michael's comprehensive legal review of our customer-facing docu...ments ensured that our business was built on a solid foundation. His support and guidance has proven to be invaluable. Michael's responsiveness is unlike any I've seen before and his contributions have had a meaningful impact on our company. As legal council for any growing business, Michael earns my highest recommendation.

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.
