Michael S. Rosenthal's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Michael
Auden Lewis Grumet headshot
Auden Grumet

Franchising lawyer | Mar 20

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I originally met Mike over a decade ago, just a few years after I began practicing law, when we were co-counsel in a convoluted and protracted copyright case. It was a pleasure working with him, particularly as a young attorney in an otherwise very contentious case, and I have looked to him as a mentor ever since. He has provided solid guidance on a number of unusual issues over the years, and he is extremely knowledgeable about franchise law in particular. He is also very patient and has an unusually calm demeanor - but he is by no means timid. In short, I endorse and recommend him without reservation for any potential client who seeks assistance with franchise matters or any number of other commercial/business practice areas."

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.
