The Best!

I interviewed multiple attorneys when contemplating Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Michael was by far the best for several reasons. First, he was kind, compassionate, understanding. Second, he was extremely knowledgeable and generous with his time. Our conversation was a true consultation, not just a sales jo...b. Third, He clearly had my best interest in mind. In fact, what he suggested I do ended up saving me a lot of money over what other attorneys recommended. Fourth, he showed the highest level of integrity. No question that Michael is the guy I would recommend to anyone looking for a phenomenal bankruptcy attorney!

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.
