Best securities attorney

I was looking to leave my firm and wanted Mike to go over my contract. With firms being more litigious, I just wanted to make sure that I wasn’t going to have any issues. In less than 24 hours he put my mind at ease. He was very thorough, explained what my rights were, etc.. Just talking to Mike, yo...u know you have a lawyer in your corner who will fight for you and help you in anyway he possibly can. If you’re in the securities industry, he should be the first lawyer you call.

Michael Utilla is the most competent and hardest working attorney I ever had

I have known and have utilized Michael's services for many years. Through different industries in my professional life, I have counted on Michael for unbiased and straight forward guidance. He is one of the only attorney's I have ever retained who has used logic and actually worked to finalize the ta...sk at hand without having been pushed to do so. There is no other attorney that I could ever say the same about. I am grateful for people like Michael who can protect my interests and be there when needed.

Cleared me of all accusations

I was worried about accusations JP MORGAN had made against me, however Utilla reviewed my case and first eased my fears and reassured me that i did nothing wrong he wrote a FINRA response to their inquiry and 2-3 months later i get the thumbs up from FINRA to continue with no worries.....I absolutely... recommend UTILLA for anyone in the securities industry having problems like mine or more sever....THANX MIKE!!!

Simply the Best

Mr. Utilla has been my trusted attorney for many years. He has represented myself and my partners in disputes, contract negotiations and any specific questions we have had about how to properly and legally handle our business. If you want the most intelligent advice from one of the best in the indust...ry he should be at the top of your list.

Certificate of Relief from Disabilities

Mike was very diligent and helped me with the process to obtain my Certificate of Relief from Disabilities from A through Z. Not only did he expedite the process he went above and beyond to get the job done jumping over all the hurdles that pop up that would have it next to impossible to complete wi...thout his assistance.
