Michael’s commitment and advocacy on behalf of marginalized communities earned him the 2019 National Lawyer’s Guild Leonard Weinglass fellowship, which allowed him to bring his work to multiple non-profit organizations around the country. 

 

As a newly admitted attorney in Washington state, Michael joins our family law practice, where he will defend the rights of parents in dependency proceedings as well as provide legal services to our family law clients, including in the areas of adoption, divorce, child support, custody, and guardianships.

 

Michael grew up in Los Angeles, California and later studied literature at the University of California, San Diego. As an attorney, Michael is dedicated to helping his clients navigate the difficult bureaucracy of the legal system with empathy and consideration. 

 

When he is not working, Michael enjoys reading, trying new restaurants in Seattle, and spending time with his nephew.
