I went to law school with Michael. He is a very capable family law attorney who loves what he does. For that reason, he works hard to help his clients achieve their goals. Given the personal nature of family law, it's important to have an attorney that is trustworthy. It also helps to have someone hardworking who will expedite the process so as not to drag it out. Michael is both of these things. If you need a family law attorney, do not hesitate to hire him.

It's rare to see a lawyer who is as passionate about his field as Michael is about family law. The way he gets excited about defending his clients' rights is inspiring, even to his peers. For that reason, anytime I am asked for a family law attorney referral, I recommend Michael. In addition to his strong passion for his work and his clients, he is honest, straight-forward and hard working. His experience and expertise in the field make him so capable that it's easy to trust him with highly sensitive family law matters.
