Eviction

I dodged a bogus eviction from a shady landlord thanks to Michael. Her and her lawyers tried to mess with me from every angle and Michael was a step ahead the whole time. Aside from getting no eviction on my record, Michael's expertise/negotiations awarded me 2 months to find a new place and move out... instead of being immediately kicked out/homeless.

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.
