Estate Planning 50%

We don't like to think about what will happen to our children when we are out of the picture. But when we plan ahead, we can stop worrying about it and concentrate on living life. We do this a lot. Let me help you plan for the inevitable. We make it as easy as it can possibly be. Remember, if you don't plan, the government's plan is the one you get. Is that really what you want?

Surpassed my expectations

Michael referred me previously to several local specialists. After weeks of being run around I contacted Michael with 1 day left to file a response and default judgement would have been awarded. He quickly got the response in and worked with opposing council to reach an amendable solution. Michael sa...ved me a lot of money and got a very agreeable payment solution.

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.
