Disability and Worker's Compensation
Mike came highly recommended by a friend of mine. At first, I was hesitant when I met him because he looked much younger than I expected. But he proved to me that he was the right attorney by the end of our first meeting. He is kind, compassionate and advocated for my legal interests. He is not scared to tackle hard legal issues and he spoke with me many times "after hours." I had a great experience with Mike and his law firm.

ATV Insurance issues
I came to Mike to handle a claim that had been assesed incorrectly on an ATV. Growing up with Mike, I knew he would take care of me. After dealing with him, his professionalism, knowledge and the willing to fight to get his customer the best possible solution was not a surprise to me. He is very dedicated to his job and keeps you updated on every step of the case. I would highly recommend this young attorney for any of your legal issues. Thanks again Mike for helping me get out of this mess!!! I'm sure I will be back and everyone I know will be sent your way when in need of legal advice!

Litigation Attorney | Jun 23
Relationship: Supervised lawyer
"Mike is one of the few willing litigators left amongst this generation of young lawyers. I believe that he is aware of his professional and ethical obligations. I have also witnessed Mike holding his own against older, more experienced attorneys that may have (incorrectly) believed that they could bully him. I would recommend Mike as a lawyer to anyone with general civil litigation needs."
