About Michael

Practice areas

I am Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Civil Trial Attorney, and I have received the highest possible Martindale-Hubbell peer review rating of "AV."  I have extensive experience litigating cases in NJ and PA federal and state courts,  representing  individuals, companies, and governmental agencies involving:  employment disputes, breach of contract, consumer fraud, negligence, landlord/tenant, will disputes, guardianships, partner/shareholder disputes, and non-compete agreements.

For kicks, I compete in long distance (1 mile plus) open water swimming races. I also enjoy walking my dogs on the beach at the Jersey shore.
