REPRESENTING SERIOUSLY INJURED VICTIMS FOR OVER 40 YEARS.

I have represented over 10,000 New Yorkers, and my clients have benefited from my knowledge of the law and my experience. I have handled problems and issues that other lawyers only read about in books. My clients, personal injury victims, who have suffered at the hands of others, need immediate, wholehearted, relentless representation to obtain the best possible outcome. They need someone who will listen and understand what they need and then flight for it.

That is exactly what I do and what my mission is---to give my clients the care they need, while providing tough, tireless representation handling their cases.

Each of us deserves to be heard and have a chance, and I have always devoted my time to representing people who needed that voice. I raised money for the Freedom Schools down South in the 60's; worked later for prisoners’ rights; helped neurologically impaired children and adults at the Lamn Instituted in Brooklyn; and now raise money for the victims of Domestic Violence, as well as for pre-school children in underprivileged areas.

Tenacious, super-smart, and compassionate.
I consulted with Michele Mirman and she was amazing. But she's also representing a friend of mine in a bigger case. He was misdiagnosed with a life-threatening disease for a couple of years (what would have been early stage cancer was then extremely advanced by the time he was sent for a biopsy and he immediately needed a stem cell transplant) and the presentation was fairly glaring from onset. i think we both have the same very high regard for this amazing attorney. She's a very smart, dedicated, tenacious, results-oriented mastermind and she's also a kind person, which goes a long way with me. I consulted her for a no-fault accident so I know she's gifted at tackling medical malpractice cases as well as personal injury.

Ms. Mirman is an exceptional personal injury lawyer--smart, professional, experienced, hardworking and compassionate. Following my accident, she gave me very helpful legal advice, and has supported me every step of the way with my case.

Trustworthy,Compassionate amd Effective
finding the right attorney when you are in crisis is not an easy task. You need help because your world has been turned upside down; you require honest and compassionate legal guidance that addresses your concerns and needs. I turned to Ms.Mirman and her tram because they have a proven track record but more importantly they listened to me. They didn't try and impress me with empty promises. They demonstrated compassion, and an earnest willingness to help me. They are successful because they believe in the client and have the client's interests at heart.

Excellent Personal Injury Attorney
Michele Mirman represented me in a personal injury case against a Manhattan restaurant, where my hand was severely lacerated and required surgery. I am a practicing dentist, and this was a horrible injury that affected my livelihood. She was indefatigable. She immediately investigated, before any evidence disappeared, which turned out to be critical to my case. She thoroughly understood the issues involved with my injury and the impact on my work. She was masterful at developing my case and moving it quickly to completion. I received an out of court settlement that I was very pleased with. Ms. Mirman fought hard for me. She was very professional and very caring. She was honest and forthright and always available to answer any questions, which she did patiently and thoroughly. I would recommend her wholeheartedly. She was the perfect lawyer to help me during an extremely difficult time.
