This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Committed To Personal Attention

Over the years, Michael has provided prudent guidance on a number of legal issues for my wife and I. Most recently, Michael represented us in a real estate transaction. From careful review of the purchase and sale contract, making sure that all contingencies were satisfactorily met, to attending our ...settlement over 100 miles from his Center City office location, Michael gave us complete confidence that he was the right choice. Adding to the complexity, we were obtaining private financing which required drafting of all funding and legal documents necessary that would normally be provided by a conventional lender or bank. Michael's knowledge and expertise continue to surpass our expectations. His undivided commitment to service and client satisfaction is second to none.

Very Helpful

My husband and I first went to Michael to have wills done. He was very accommodating; my husband is disabled and couldn't go to Michael’s office to sign the papers, so he came to our house instead. Then we inherited a house and Michael helped us every step of the way until it sold. We couldn't have d...one it without him. Michael is a very friendly and pleasant person to work with.

Awesome person!!!!!

He handled my bankruptcy with ease and then has made himself available for various issues ever since. He is a top notch, ethical lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone.

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.
