In so doing, he has represented plaintiffs and defendants, including members of the Bench and Bar. In recognition of his extensive jury trial experience, Mike was elected to the American Board of Trial Advocates, an invitation-only organization of attorneys who have completed at least 20 jury trials as lead counsel.
