I would highly recommend Michael`s services.

I highly recommend Michael as he was very easy to work with and responsive to my sometimes never ending questions. I appreciate the professionalism and quality services that I was given. He shared with me all the needed information timely and guided me through the process. Thank you again!

Lost money and time with him

I worked with this lawyer last year when I was planning to apply for an extraordinary visa. After the draft of the petition was ready, I requested to see it. It was terrible, with many mistakes, including my questions to the lawyer. After I provided my comments and questions regarding the draft, M...ichael abruptly terminated our contract without any explanation. He retained 100% of the fees, which was a singificant amount for me and sent me an 'improved' version of the petition with the comment, 'This is all I can do for you; find another lawyer.' It was very unprofessional. I tried multiple times to discuss the strategy of my case with him, but he never engaged in these conversations. It took me a long time to recover from this situation, as I lost both money and time with this lawyer.

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.
