Treasurer of Romulus et al v. Wayne County Drain Commisioner et al Outcome: Won in the Michigan Supreme Court Bray et al versus State of Michigan Uninsured Motorists Fund et al Outcome: Reversed on appeal.
Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
I recently settle led a matter wherein 5 annuity contracts were reduced to 32.79% of their value due to the bankruptcy of the insurer. Without filing a lawsuit within 5 months I obtained an agreement worth $2.3 million dollars where the original tortfeasor, a hospital, agreed to make up the shortfall of the annuities. I also settled a lawsuit for a greatly reduced amount for a mobile home buyer that overpaid for the unit. Recently I drafted a Lease Agreement with an Option to purchase wherein the rent payments are applied to the purchase price if the option is exercised by the tenant.
What should clients look for in a lawyer?
Clients should look for an attorney that sincerely cares about getting a positive result for them.
How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?
I have an extensive legal research tool to use for my clients if the local knowledge is not available.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?
I try to have the client have an understanding of the costs involved including attorney's fees.
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
I need a brief description of the facts and if documents involved I need them faxed or emailed to me for review before I continue the conversation.
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?
I have over 40 years' experience in law and title issues. Sitting on the board of a national lending institution for over 17 years and having looked and hundreds of loans adds to my ability to counsel my clients.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
My most rewarding aspect of my practice is-satisfied clients that can get on with their lives and not look back.
What are your other interests in addition to law?
In addition to law I like reading English and Russian history. Watching true crime on television and playing with my dog. I like golf but it doesn't like me.
Are you involved in your community?
I have been involved with my wife with the local MS office and the disabled sports Olympics.
