"Michael was one of the first people I met when I first arrived in Las Vegas, and he quickly became a friend and colleague. We planned events together for student and community organizations while in law school and ended up working together years later in practice. He is a well-rounded and immensely competent attorney, and a great resource to Southern Nevada’s legal community. Michael is an easy recommendation, whether for a potential client or another attorney seeking reliable local counsel or a referral."
"I went to law school with Michael. His intellect, ambition, commitment, and friendliness are unmatched. I fully endorse Michael and would refer a friend or client to him without hesitation."
