Outstanding and supportive

Michael Katz of Lopez McHugh LLP provided outstanding representation and made a difficult process significantly less stressful. I was so impressed with the personal care and professional guidance that he provided during a very difficult time. He not only handled the legal complexities with expertise ...but also made me feel supported and understood every step of the way.

Always available

Michael was wonderful to deal with. Very attentive, treated me almost like family. Always available when I needed to speak with him. And we were successful, I got everything I was entitled to in a settlement without having to file a lawsuit.

Heaven sent

Michael Katz was heaven sent. We attempted to get disability on our own and were unsuccessful. Michael is very professional and thorough. He made the process extremely easy. We are very happy with the outcome and the services he provided for our family. I highly recommend Mr. Katz.

Caring and committed

We retained Michael Katz during the most difficult time our family has faced: a medical wrongful death case following the loss of my brother. The nature of medical malpractice suits is inherently complex and emotionally taxing, but from our very first meeting, Michael provided a steady, welcoming ...presence that brought immediate clarity to a daunting legal process. Michael's commitment to our case was extraordinary. His absolute dedication and meticulous attention to detail were the foundations of our success. He truly went above and beyond in building our case, expertly managing the intricate legal requirements. He is undeniably great at his job. Crucially, Michael understands that he is dealing with people, not just paperwork. He is incredibly kind and compassionate, making the process of a lawsuit as easy as possible for the client. He guided our family through each step, always answering our many questions in a timely manner and with great care. We felt completely confident knowing he was dedicated to our best interests. Michael Katz steadily and confidently guided us to the very best results possible. There is absolutely no one better, and we recommend him without reservation.

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.
