Michael helped us with the sale of our rental property. We had a few deals fall through (due to issues with the buyers and COVID), but Michael helped us through the whole process. I would definitely recommend him to others.

"I started my legal career working for Michael as a law clerk, and continued to work with him as an attorney for the next seven years. He instinctively took on a role of mentor to me, and I learned so much from him both professionally and personally.

"Michael is meticulous in his approach and is very personable both inside and outside of the courtroom. I highly endorse this lawyer."
