This would be my review of Michael... Esq of Rochester NY. I have found him to be knowledgeable and fair. He stands by his clients & gives accurate advice. He listens and is respectful in & out of court. He does not abandon his clients and does his best to help & advise. I have recommended him to others who are in genuinely in need of a really good lawyer. He is a man who genuinely loves his work, cares about your outcome & will say hello to you in the street. He is a family man & feels for his clients as well.

Michael is a bad lawyer. Plain and simple. He will take your money. And then make matters worse. Not answering your call is just the tip of the iceberg. You'll need a lawyer just to figure out what michael is doing. because he himself, will not explain it to you. Theres times where you will call him. And if your significant other is misbehaved enough. By the time michael responds. Theres 3 more questions to ask him. Because the initial question is now old and overdue. You can not pay this guy upfront. He will secure cases so he can roll in the dough. And by then your thousands will just be water under the bridge. He will lock you into a horrible contract, wont make you feel included and why he behaves like this is a mystery to me. There seems not to be any oversight in rochester so hiring a high rolling lawyer looking to enter into high society is a real danger. Good luck your going to need it if you hire michael.
