About Michael
Mr. Pearson has extensive civil litigation experience focusing his practice on trial law. Mike handles complex civil litigation as well FAA enforcement action cases and aircraft and helicopter accident cases. Martindale Hubbell rates Mike, and the firm, "AV" which is the highest rating possible and he has achieved the highest rating possible by "AVVO." In addition, Michael is listed in the Bar Register as a Preeminent Lawyer. He is a multi-million dollar advocate and was elected one of Arizona's Finest Lawyers. He has also been honored by the National Trial Lawyers Association and named as one of the Top 100 Trial Attorneys throughout the entire state of Arizona, one of Americas Top 100 Attorneys, the Nations Top One Percent, and selected as a "SuperLawyer" by his peers. While his office is in Arizona Michael litigates cases nationwide.
As a Phoenix Personal Injury Lawyer, Michael often handles severe personal injury matters. His practice varies from representing the families of the Arizona "Hotshots" who tragically lost their lives during an out-of-control inferno in a brush-choked canyon in the worst loss of life for U.S. wildland firefighters in eight decades to aviation clients including family members who have lost loved ones in accidents, airplane and helicopter accidents, and those injured on domestic and international flights.
Michael also represents airlines and entities and airmen accused by the FAA of violating the Federal Aviation Regulations. He has handled litigation cases for international airlines such as Air France and Zest Airways. His Part 135 clients include TALON Air, Keystone Aviation, FUGA, GlobalJet and many others. The FAA has been ordered to pay fees to his client at the conclusion of an enforcement case that was dismissed in his client's favor. Michael has been interviewed by ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News, Fox Business News, PBS as well as a multitude of print media sources on various issues due to his expertise regarding aviation and aviation law.
Michael also handles business and complex litigation matters. His clients range from home builders to bankers and everyday individuals who have lost property or have been unfairly treated. He has represented federal employees who were unfairly terminated due to whistle blowing activities before the MSPB as well as firefighters unfairly terminated due to union activities. Most recently he has represented several thousand college graduates with specialized training in air traffic control, through a proposed class action, who were illegally and improperly "purged" from a employment referral list by the Federal Aviation Administration.
