Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"Michael and I worked on a few cases together as opposing counsel. He was a pleasure to communicate with and diligently advocated for his clients. He is intelligent, professional and I endorse him wholeheartedly."
"Mike is second to none. He brings the total package to the table: professionalism, preparedness, integrity, and intelligence. Above all, he is responsive to his clients' desires and goals, while remaining equally attentive to a client's needs and best legal interests. A master strategist, I frequently seek Mike's opinion in matters pertaining to the more intricate aspects of the Family Court Act."
