"I endorse this lawyer's work. Miles is both extremely competent and pleasant. He is an exceptional lawyer and person."

Relationship: Other

"I am proud to to say that Miles Hurwitz is my partner, and mentor! Not only is he an excellent attorney, but he is one of the most honest and ethical persons I have ever met! Perhaps the best proof of my sentiments is that the Michigan Supreme Court appointed Miles to serve (without pay) on the Michigan Attorney Discipline Board weeding out the bad/dishonest and unethical lawyers. Miles served as Chairman of that Board for three years, and at the conclusion of his term, he was honored by many of the leading jurists and lawyers in the state of Michigan. In addition, Miles is a legal scholar, and reads just about anything he can find that relates to his areas of expertise. Miles clients love him, and it is not uncommon for opposing counsel to refer significant legal matters to him, because he is the best!. Miles is truly a "lawyers lawyer""

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.
