Excellent Attorney

Michael is a very caring attorney. Our case was the tragic death of my Father. Michael laughed with us when we were telling our stories of my Dad, he even shed a few tears with us during our heartbreaking times. I remember him saying that he wished he could have met my Dad. I wish he could have, Dad ...would have said we had a great attorney to take care of us. He was so patient with my Mother and brother during our depositions. He was very patient and kind with all my questions and emails. He was quick to get back to me with answer and explanations. We put all our trust and faith in him and I know that we were in excellent hands during the long process. Michael is an admirable person, during our many conversations he was always concerned as to how my Mother and brother were doing. He was truly concerned for us and helping us with the justice we deserved. Michael was our attorney, but he will always hold a special place in our family as a friend. He is an excellent attorney and anyone hiring him will have the peace of mind as we did.

Medical malpractice lawyer | Feb 24

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer based on his track record of professional results in many injury type cases. He is a talented lawyer in Chicago that is very pleasant to know and work with. As a firm located 300 miles from Chicago, it is very comforting to know that I can call this lawyer and the other lawyers at Rapoport Law Offices in complex matters and work with them to bring positive results to those seriously injured. I urge lawyers outside of Chicago to call this firm should they wish to refer or work with a great group of extremely talented attorneys."

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.
