Truly a good guy and awesome lawyer!!

I found Michael on Yelp and was skeptical about using ANY lawyer for my contract issues. I was very pleasantly surprised to meet Michael and find a fair, reasonable, attorney who not only knew what he was doing and gave me great business/legal advice but did not charge me out the nose. His rates we...re fair and after reviewing my contracts he was able to not only fix the problems I had but also give me great advice on areas that could potentially be pitfalls in the future. He helped me re write a contract that was ready to go and protected my interest in every way. Michael was patient and took the time to explain things to me carefully. Not only that but he was willing to see me after hours when no one else would even consider seen game after 5. Not only will I use Michael for my business again, but he suggested I do a will and trust to protect my assets. Again, he is willing to work on this with me in off hours to accommodate my schedule. Michael is truly one of the 'good guys' and a gem of a find in the legal department!!!

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.
