We hired Michael to fight for us with unscrupulous contractors who had mishandled tens of thousands of dollars of money we had given them for work scheduled to be done on a property. He successfully recovered $40,000 for us, and we have been grateful to him ever since!
"Michael and I were opposing counsel on a matter. Michael was a strong advocate for his client, yet maintained a reasonable and practical approach to the situation. Based on the same, I endorse Michael."
