This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Lawyer and Advisor

I worked with Mic (Michael) after I opened a business that competed with my former employer. I had been sewed for allegedly violating a covenant not to compete with my prior company. We knew that for various reasons the non-compete was invalid, and Mic fought hard to protect my ability to earn an i...ncome in the only business I had known for the past decade. Mic took me on as a client even though I was making almost no money, and at the time it was unclear how I could possibly afford an attorney. In the end he was successful in protecting the business I had built, and we were able to obtain a favorable outcome for myself personally.

Superb Attorney!

I worked with Mic after I was terminated from my employment. He was brilliant at navigating the legal system and keeping me informed. Both he and his staff made a tough situation much easier for me! I highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel!

Gets the Job Done

I worked with Mic on a dispute with my former employer. I had heard about him through a former client of his. He was responsible, trustworthy and always came through for me. Needless to say, I received way more than I expected from him and would recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mic is a very knowledgeable attorney. I litigated against him on a matter and he knew which issues to litigate, which issues to attempt resolution on, and the area of law. I enjoyed litigating against Mic because he thought of some issues to raise that other attorneys would have missed. Mic did a nice job for his clients in the case I litigated against him."

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.
