I hired Mike to handle some matters for a family member that we previously had another attorney handle and it turned out that it was handled incorrectly. I made the mistake of going with the cheapest attorney the first time. Mike's rates were very reasonable/fair but not the cheapest. I feel like I... got much more than I paid for. IMike came highly recommended as a "problem solver" who wasn't afraid to think outside of the box and find a solution that would work for all parties involved. He used his reputation and contacts to make the meetings happen outside of court to solve all of our issues quickly and efficiently. The best thing that sets Mike apart from other attorneys is that he keeps in contact and will keep the client updated on their case. I can't say enough good things about how professional he is. Young enough to really care and work very hard but experienced way beyond his years to get the job done as good or better than any other attorney in the triangle area. The best attorney we have ever worked with, hands down.
