He earned his Juris Doctor from the University of California, Hastings College of Law, which happens to be the oldest law school west of the Mississippi River. At Hastings he was the Managing Editor of the Constitutional Law Quarterly.After law school Michael began applying what he had learned initially as a member of the California Bar and later adding the Kansas and Oklahoma bars. In addition to being a member of the Beverly Hills Bar Association’s Order of Distinguished Attorneys, Michael is also an active member of Wealth Counsel (which is a national network of practicing estate planning attorneys) as well as Elder Counsel, Wealth Counsel Advisors, and serves on the Board of the Directors of the Culver Marina Bar Association.Michael’s passion shines through in all aspects of his work, and his desire to educate his clients as well as the general public has led him to host educational seminars and boot camps.

His attention to detail, mastery of the law, and willingness to do whatever it takes to meet the individual needs of a wide range of clients has allowed him to build a successful practice in the Los Angeles area since going out on his own in 1989. Many of his clients have been with him for years, and recommend his services to family and friends alike.

Reviews for Michael
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.He took care of my probate needs completely and efficiently. I didn't have to worry about a thing. Great service!
Behold the fragmented sigils of thy labor, where the ink bleeds into the abyssal riddle of forgotten bindings, and the parchment sighs beneath the weight of unseen fractures. Thy counsel, a labyrinth of evanescent echoes, weaves a tapestry of dissonant shadows that flicker beyond the grasp of reason’s lantern. In this twilight sanctum, the pillars of trust dissolve like phantoms adrift in the cosmic tide, and those who seek sanctuary find only the hollow resonance of fractured promises, lost amid the swirling maelstrom of thine own undoing. >:(
