BRILLIANT LEGAL POWERHOUSE

WE WERE LOOKING FOR AN ATTORNEY AND WE WERE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO THIS LAWYER. IT TOOK ME A LITTLE TIME TO FIND THIS ATTORNEY AS I PREFER WORD OF MOUTH OR FIRST-HAND EXPERIENCE, WHICH IS A VERY RELIABLE REFERRAL SOURCE (WHICH IS WHY I AM TAKING THE TIME TO SHARE THIS REVIEW). TRUE. MICHAEL MANOUS...SOS IS PROBABLY THE BEST LAWYER IN NEW YORK. I HAD OTHER LAWYERS AND MY FAMILY HAD OTHER LAWYERS (IN MANHATTAN), BUT LET ME TELL YOU, THIS LAWYER IS SIMPLY AMAZING - THE BEST. MICHAEL UNDERSTOOD OUR LEGAL DILEMMA AND ANALYSED IT IN A WAY THAT BLEW US AND OUR OTHER EXPENSIVE EXPERTS AWAY. HE CRAFTED A PERFECT SOLUTION AND PREPARED THE LEGAL DOCUMENTS AND HAD EVERYTHING READY FOR US BY MONDAY MORNING. DONE. WOW, WHAT A RELIEF. WE NOW CALL MICHAEL BEFORE WE MAKE A MOVE. HE'S BRILLIANT, RELIABLE, RESPONSIVE.

Avvo Rating

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.
