I was in an auto accident and unsure what to do next. A quick phone call and meeting put my mind at ease. I was consistently kept in the loop on everything that was going on and what I could expect next. All of my questions were promptly answered and I had no scheduling issues with face to face meetings. The accident was a very troubling time for me both emotionally and financially and I felt reassured that Michael Bruno and his staff were genuinely concerned and were on my team. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone facing the same situation.
I was so grateful to find such an amazing lawyer to work with during a frustrating time. Mike Bruno and Sarah worked very closely with me every step of the way and made my car accident settlement very easy to manage. Im very please with the outcome of everything.
Mike Bruno was born in a U.S. Army Hospital in Stuttgart, Germany. Following his father’s discharge from the Army, he and his parents returned to their hometown of Toledo. Mike graduated from Sylvania High School in 1975 and earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communications from Ohio University in 1979. Mike worked his way through law school as a bailiff for Lucas County Common Pleas Judge George M. Glasser.
After graduation from The University of Toledo Law School in 1983, Mike became employed as an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney in the adult felony division of the Lucas County Prosecutor’s office. From 1983 to 1989 Mike prosecuted hundreds of cases including two death penalty murder trials. Since 1989, Mike has almost exclusively handled personal injury and insurance matters. All told, he has tried more than 100 jury trials throughout northwest Ohio, the most recent a recovery of $1.25 million against a trucking company for a client seriously injured at a truck stop.
Mike is a member of the Toledo Bar Association and the Ohio Association for Justice. He has attained Board Certification as a Civil Trial Specialist by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. He has an AV rating through Martindale-Hubbell, which is the highest possible peer-review rating.
Mike and his wife live in Sylvania, Ohio, and have three sons. Mike also serves as president of the Italian American Sports Club. He enjoys reading, racquet sports, playing guitar, and is a lifelong fan of the Detroit Tigers.

I hired Mr. Bruno due a worker's comp case and he explained the process to me every step of the way. I felt well informed and confident that he was doing his utmost to get my case settled satisfactorily, and as quickly as possible. I am pleased with the results of my case and the settlement that I was awarded. I would highly recommend Mr. Bruno and Boyk law firm.

Always helped my family
Mike was very patient and explained everything thoroughly when I was a client. I was able to make appointments when it was most convenient for me, through all of the chaos after the accident, the surgery, etc. Everyone went out of their way to help me and my family which made our Christmas so much better.
