Unreliable

It’s stressful enough working through my pain but to find lawyer after lawyer uninterested in my case is extremely disappointing. As many I have reached out to before, this was no different. Michael & his team are curt, not interested when contacted. Maybe it’s me but with the injury I’m dealing with... I have enough on my plate. I don’t want to be begging someone to return my calls…enough of a headache. Don’t recommend. I will continue to look elsewhere.

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.
