About:

Former state prosecutor with extensive experience handling criminal and traffic-related cases. As a prosecutor and private attorney, I have handled hundreds of DUI/Breathalyzer Refusal cases, domestic violence cases, and drug cases among others. My prior experience as a state prosecutor is not available to most criminal defense attorneys, and I use that experience to give my clients a formidable edge if they have been charged with a crime. Additionally, I employ my courtroom and negotiation experience to fight for my clients' rights in personal injury and workers' compensation cases. It is never advisable to negotiate with insurance companies alone. If you have been injured in a car accident or from an accident at your workplace, put knowledge and experience on your side to get you the money you deserve. Prior to becoming a state prosecutor, I practiced estate planning law at a private law firm primarily in the areas of wills and trusts formation. Now, as a private attorney once again, I assist many clients in this area. The estate planning process can be complicated and overwhelming, and it is never advisable to draft your own documents. If you are planning to begin the estate planning process, call me to explain and simplify the process for you.

"About a month ago, I received a summons while visiting family in Rhode Island. As an out-of-state visitor, I needed legal counsel who could handle the matter efficiently and work toward a favorable outcome. After speaking with several attorneys, it was clear that Michael stood out. He demonstrated a strong understanding of Rhode Island traffic law and came across as a conscientious professional who prioritizes his clients’ concerns. Most importantly, Michael represented me in court and successfully resolved the issue."
