Litigation lawyer | Jun 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Not very many lawyers manage to achieve both "likeable" and "serious". Even fewer do so in litigation practices. And even fewer in their first 5 years of practice. Michael has truly taken advantage of the complex practice his firm undertakes, and in turn he gives clients a lawyer they can both trust, and like. A rarity. No reservations in this endorsement."

Litigation lawyer | May 29

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have been a co-counsel with Michael on a case that appeared, at first, to be extremely complex and time-consuming. His approach to handling the matter, in addition to his work ethic, helped to simplify and expdite the entire process. Most importantly, our client felt very comfortable with Michael's assistance after the case began evolving. In addition to his knowledge on the law, he was very personable and understanding to our client. If given the chance, I would love to work on more cases with Michael and the Ricci Partners law firm."

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.
