Relationship: Worked together on matter
I have collaborated with Michael on multiple cases and I am always impressed with his caring and concern for getting a great result for his clients, the deep thought he puts into case strategy, and general common sense approach. He isn't afraid to push to get the best possible outcome for each client, truly putting his clients first. I have worked with a lot of attorneys and he is the best I have encountered in his deep commitment to helping his clients.

Relationship: Worked together on matter
I have worked with many attorneys over my 30 years in practice and have never seen anyone work cases harder and more diligently than Michael. He is an amazing advocate for his clients and an attorney who is highly respected by attorneys on both sides of the aisle and by judges across Wyoming. Working with Michael on cases has significantly broadened my knowledge in different areas of the law. He is always willing to take the time to help and mentor young or less experienced attorneys.
