About Michele
Biography
A former big NYC corporate attorney, after dealing with my disabled sister and and my aging parents, I decided to switch my practice area to one I felt emotionally connected and commited to, Elder Law. I went back to school and got a masters in Elder Law and Estate Planning. Then I was hired by esteemed Elder Law attorney, Dean Bress. When Dean retired I took over his practice. Having experienced the stress, worry and concerns facing my clients, I beleive I can emapathize and problem solve with them to find solutions to the most challenging problems. Armed with the professionalism I learned as an associate at Rogers & Well, my many years of education, in school and on the job, and the compassion I share based on my own life experiences, I beleive I offer the very best legal services to all of my clients.

Michele has guided me every step of the way. She made it possible to remove my dear friend from a nursing home and get her into her home environment, where she preferred to be. Now she's receiving great care and her assets are protected. I highly recommend Cassidy Law Firm.
