Posted by anonymous | June 24, 2018 | Consulted Attorney

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Knowledgeable, nice and realistic

I initially conversed with another attorney. He referred me to Michael for a better fit. Michael called me after his work hours to kindly listen to my case. He was SO knowledgeable. He proceeded with giving me step by step directions on what I should do/how I could go about my specific case. He gave ...me realistic advice and also gave me humanly advice. My case left me very emotional and he spoke to me like a person not a business client. I was so touched and appreciative that he took the time to walk me through my case, but also just to listen to me and being a decent human. I would highly recommend Michael, he was helpful and knowledgeable. This is his wheelhouse.

Employment Litigation - Retaliation

  Michael is nothing short of an exceptional attorney. We litigated a case for 3 years in LA County. Michael was tenacious and never gave up. Michael is always responsive to phone calls and keeps you in the loop the entire way and never pushes you. He gives you the information and lets you make the ...decision. Litigation is more than a painful process and I don't recommend it for anyone but if you have no other option Michael is a great choice.

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.
