Client Reviews
"Michael advised my company in avoiding potential litigation with a former executive of the company and litigating a dispute with one of our suppliers. He dead all of this while also assisting us in our fundraising effort and in a corporate restructuring. I would highly recommend him for all of your legal needs."
"Michael did a fantastic job taking my company all the way through a somewhat complex asset sale. He negotiated the actual agreement from start to finish and dealt with all of the corporate governance and shareholder consents necessary to close the deal. Even after the deal was complete, he remained on as the company's sole advisor dealing with a number of legal issues remaining."
