The worst

13 years in real estate and Michael tops them all as the WORST attorney I have ever encountered. Not only did I waste over $5,000 but he couldn’t even get me legally the eviction . Not only could he not get me the eviction but he also told me it would be wise for me not to prosecute the tenants ...I had to evict that owe me over $16,000 If he did was going to try the case he was going to charge ANOTHER TENS IF THOUSANDS OF MORE DOLLARS save your money , time and headache A child could of done This guys job better

Travel Training Specialist

I had a wonderful experience with Michael. I highly recommend his services. He is passionate about his work and went above and beyond to ensure he came through successfully for my case. He kept me informed along the way and from the start I spoke with him and not an associate.

Very helpful

After consulting with Michael I felt more comfortable about our situation. He helped me understand our rights and obligations, and explained what to expect going forward.

Wasted money

I hired him and felt my money was wasted on researching and filing some ridiculous counter claim instead of getting the case dismissed which it should have been. The attorney seemed cold and seemed to care very little about me and my case.

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.
