As Assistant Attorney General, Michael represented technical and healthcare regulatory agencies, including the Board of Pharmacy, the Medical Board, the Board of Nursing, the Board of Technical Registration and the Registrar of Contractors, among many others.

Michael also represented specialized agencies like the Department of Liquor Licensing and Control and the Department of Gaming, which routinely handle criminal law enforcement, federal and tribal issues.  Over thousands administrative hearings, dozens of appeals, and innumerable individual regulatory matters touching virtually all aspects of licensed professional life, Michael has developed an unmatched understanding of administrative law that allowed him to become one of only a select few Certified Administrative Law Specialists in the state.  This honor is bestowed only with the support of attorney peers and after a grueling examination process.  Michael prides himself on listening to his clients and learning their stories so that he can provide individuals and businesses with information and advice that allows them to make their own decisions.
