TESTIMONIAL HIGH-NET-WORTH DIVORCE CLIENT
“Michael helped me manage and settle a very difficult $5 million divorce. It took 2 years but I ended up getting a fair settlement without the high cost of a trial, thanks to Michael’s work with my lawyer. He told me after the case was settled that we would never have got such a good settlement without Michael’s help.”
