A great lawyer and a real gentleman

Michael LaMagna is a terrific attorney and a wonderful person. He helped our family at a difficult time and was always there when we needed him. He provided us with solutions to every problem and was a strong, knowledgeable, tireless and successful advocate for our family in all of our dealings with ...every government and private agency. Michael is a compassionate and upstanding attorney and I recommend him to all of my friends and acquaintances.

Excellent, Caring Attorney

Mr. LaMagna goes above and beyond to assist his clients. Takes his time to be sure client understands the proceedings. Excellent for Elder Care, Probate and dementia related issues. The fact that he is a licensed nursing home administrator in NY AND CT

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Michael LaMagna is one of the best Elder Law attorneys in New York state: If you want the job done, give it to Michael. He knows how to research the law, interpret the law, and do the hard work so many attorneys prefer to avoid. I now refer all of my Medicaid and Guardianship matters to Michael, and plan on doing so in the future."

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.
