WHAT THE FIRM OFFERS

Contracts, Incorporations, and Business Law

Real Estate and Landlord-Tenant Law

You have a lease. You have a tenant; maybe a couple. Your tenants are doing something you don’t want them to do. Or maybe you haven’t done something your tenants think you need to do. With years of experience in this space, both on the initial leasing side and on the eviction/breach of contract side, we can give you the insights you need to keep your property humming (and profitable).

Litigation and Lawsuits

So it’s come to blows. Someone screwed you, or thinks you screwed them. A lawsuit is inevitable; the clock is ticking. If you’ve never been through this, you’re understandably stressed. It’s probably all you can think about. If you have been through this, you know what stress awaits you.

Take a breath. Slow down. Give us a call. We have a proud track record as efficient, creative, and tenacious litigators. We can’t make the fact that you’re involved in a lawsuit any less stressful. But we will make the process less painful. We’ll handle the legal stress so you can focus on keeping your business moving.

MEET MIKE

Mike got his license to practice in California on December 2, 2013, passing the infamous California bar exam on his first attempt. He’s been practicing civil litigation of all stripes in San Diego and Los Angeles ever since then.

Along the way, he’s collected invaluable experience in virtually everything about the legal and compliance side of running a business. From labor and employment issues, to drafting and litigating contracts with vendors or involving real estate, to dealing with unreasonable counterparties, he’s seen it all. More recently, he’s quickly learned and worked on foreclosure and breach of contract cases for real estate wholesalers and other real estate investors. It’s often said it takes 10,000 hours to master a skill; Mike has just about double that figure in less than a decade. He now runs a full-service boutique business and real estate firm. Mike’s most extensive background is in representing high net worth and very high net worth individuals.

He moved back to his native New Jersey in 2020 in order to be closer to his family during the COVID-19 pandemic. He sat for the New Jersey bar exam in February 2021, and again passed on his first attempt. He has since also gotten his Pennsylvania and New York licenses.

Mike is licensed to practice in California, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. He is federally licensed in the United States District Courts for the Southern District of California, Central District of California, and the District of New Jersey.

Defamation and Breach of Contract: The Dealer’s Choice

Many times, business owners have contracts with non-disparagement provisions. They rightfully demand and receive assurances from their business associates that they will not disparage the business owner or any of its products or intellectual property. In short – if this goes south, don’t badmouth my company or my products for any reason, and we have…
