5 Stars

Michael Mauro is a great attorney that helped me resolve some governmental agency issues that would have otherwise tore me apart. Thank you for your service!

awesome attorney

Mike was very helpful to my case wrote powerful letters and made demand to cure my situation. I am very grateful that I met this lawyer and hired him to help my business.

Professional, transparent, responsive

Michael was very quick in responding to my inquiry online and provided an informative consultation in person that led to the retainment of his services. He guided me along the process and was very transparent in his work, sending them to me for review before submission, and then following up with ...me after, providing me with timely updates. Michael was very professional and it was a pleasure to work with him. We won our case, which I attribute to his skills and experience.

Highest Recommendation

I hired Mr. Mauro to fight Lansing with licensing issues and he did. What I liked most was that he was honest and upfront about both the positive and negative aspects of the matter and did not pull any punches with me. He also always kept me well informed about the process and status of the case. Yo...u can feel good about hiring his firm and I know I did.

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.
