Mike is approachable, professional, and went above and beyond to help me with something that perhaps should've cost much more given the complexity and things to consider for my case. I'd recommend Mike to anyone.

Employment & Labor advice session
Michael did an amazing job for me. I needed some guidance on an employment law matter related to sales commission. Michael called me within 15 minutes of submitting my request. He then guided me through the case law, options, probability of me succeeding in my action, etc. I could not recommend Michael more as he is very knowledgeable, and I would definitely consider using him for more legal work. I had called a traditional law firm seeking similar advice and they quoted me a $3000 retainer. Avvo was a great alternative and worked like a charm. Michael really went the extra mile to help me and could not be happier with the experience.

Pay Day Loan Scam Borrower
Mr Livolsi, is dedicated and very knowledgeable about the law. He is down to earth and helpful with locating resources in your area if you don't come from his. He assisted me with figuring out my case and I am so very grateful for his profound expertise. He assured me, and I am now on the right track to overcoming this silly mistake of involving myself with such scamming bloodsuckers known to the underprivileged and naive public as the Pay Day Loan. Thank you again Mr Livolsi, for your time and patience.

AVVO Connection
Having supplied an initial written brief to Michael Livolsi, we then conducted a lengthy conversation during which he displayed an accurate understanding of the matter at hand, and he also suggested several intelligent additional avenues that we will be investigating with regards our claim of fraud against an NYC investment bank. We are instructing Michael to act on our behalf as our attorney for the US, and we are extremely confident that we will form a long term relationship between our two offices. DFJ CEO ISGH Italia.
