Client Reviews
Douglas S. August 7, 2024
It has been the worst experience of my life from start to finish. I had a complicated and expensive divorce, 8 figures..., Michael refused to address the issues I had with the support and it ended up costing me $1,000,000 and this is after many conversations, financial models and emails. He refuses to do anything. What you can expect is fast and loose with everything done at the last minute. I was married for 5 years and he ran up a $3,000,000 bill for all the professionals that worked on the divorce, and its still not done. I signed a Master Settlement Agreement in January and the judgment is not done. Please, Please, save yourself the pain and suffering I have experienced over the past 28 months Michael. I should also mention Michael's rates at nearly $700 an hour were the highest of any attorney's in the case and there were a total of 8 different attorney's on both sides. All of the other attorney's won every argument with Michael. He does not win. His work is terrible and riddled with mistakes. His mistakes alone cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars. Finally, after spending millions of dollars are lawyers and accountants Michaels outcome was 5X worse than what he said was my largest exposure.
