Posted by Florence | October 07, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Amazing results on my personal injury claim.

I hired Mike for my personal injury claim against a national supermarket chain. Having never been involved in litigation before, he was terrific in explaining everything and guiding me through the process. His personality and sense of humor put me at ease and certainly contributed to our amazing se...ttlement. He was incredibly organized and very knowledgeable about healthcare billing and medical issues. He found the right expert, filed a compelling case, and negotiated a settlement that exceeded my expectations. I'd recommend Mike to anyone who needs a good lawyer.

Skilled Negotiator

Michael's negotiating skills are tremendous. I hired him to represent me on my loss of consortium claim. At the pre-trial mediation session, Mike displayed an excellent knowledge of the case and had a solid command of his legal arguments. He has a great smile and a really effective personal style ...that built a rapport with the mediator and opposing counsel (representing a large corporation) -- which resulted in a very favorable settlement. Mike didn't rush to a quick result. I was impressed that he was willing to spend the time (many hours) that it took to reach a just and appropriate settlement. He's thoughtful, personable, clear and very effective. I would hire him again without a doubt.

"Mike is terrific - he was responsible for achieving an excellent settlement against a large national grocery store chain. He's a skilled trial lawyer who is effective, detail oriented and efficient. He's also a tenacious negotiator who uses his personal style and sense of humor to great advantage in adversarial situations. I'd work with him again without hesitation."

  • 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.
