Excellent Legal Advice
My wife & I aree going through some difficulties with our residential lease and we were referred to Mike for help. He has been very responsive and an excellent source of legal counsel throughout our process. He's been able to answer all of our questions after respectully listening to our situation. We would highly recommend his services to anyone with tenant/landlord disputes.
