"Michael is a fantastic lawyer. I have had the pleasure of working with Michael on a number of litigation matters, and I can confidently state that his case analysis skills and strategic mind are a great asset to any client's case. To top it all off, Michael really cares about his clients and he excels in client communication. You are in good hands with Michael and I recommend him without reservation."
"Mike and I attended law school together, and worked together at the Indiana Community Legal Clinic. Mike is a smart and compassionate guy, and is someone I often go to for both legal and non-legal advice."
"In addition to being a hard working, dedicated, and caring attorney, Mike is really cool. Every lawyers says they care, Mike's actions prove it. And then in his spare time he picks up a bass and plays in rock bands. I have known Mike since law school and had the pleasure of working on various projects with him. If you are looking for an attorney I cannot recommend him highly enough."
