Real Estate/Litigation FAILURE

I have found Michael from an online ad. He seemed eager to help in my situation and he had. But as soon as my case started getting a little bumpy, He COMPLETELY fell off the face of the earth. I tried contacting him and left him many messages and I received nothing. I paid him in advanced and that wa...s my biggest mistake. DO NOT use this lawyer for any means.

I have no idea who this person is or what the situation is. The only real estate litigation I handle is evictions and have had no problems in this area.

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.
