I was raised in the St. Louis area and attended all grade-levels in Missouri.  I am an avid St. Louis sports fan and one of my favorite spring and summer activities is watching Cardinals baseball.  I enjoy playing sports, running and biking.  Also, I am conversational in Gujarati, an Indian dialect.. My practice includes serious personal injury cases involving the wrongful death of a friend or a family member, serious and permanent life-altering injuries and issues where surgery or hospitalization is required.  I also handle criminal and traffic matters.

I started my legal career as a Law Clerk for the Honorable Charles B. Blackmar, a Justice with the Missouri Supreme Court and former professor at St. Louis University School of Law. I went on to practice as a trial attorney for the Commercial Litigation Branch of the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. Following this position, I served as a Federal Prosecutor with an emphasis on prosecuting white collar crime, including bank fraud.. After leaving the government, I practiced law at Armstrong, Teasdale, Schlafly & Davis, the third largest law firm in the State of Missouri, where I focused on the areas of commercial litigation, personal injury defense, and white collar criminal defense. I opened my own law firm in 1988.. I attended St. Louis University School of Law where I was the Editor In Chief of the St. Louis University Public Law Review and received the American Jurisprudence Award. I attended college at the University of Missouri St Louis where I graduated Magna Cum Laude and received the Stuart and Evelyn Symington Scholarship Award (former U.S. Senator Stuart Symington)..

Most importantly, I have represented individuals just like you against some of the largest corporations in the world.. In 2003, I was recognized by the National Law Journal as National Litigator of the Month for obtaining an $18 million dollar jury verdict involving the death of a child.

I represent individuals, families and small businesses.  The vast  majority of my practice involves personal injury and workers compensation matters.  Personal Injury litigation is a broad term that is best defined as recovering damages for people when their injuries were caused by the negligence of others.. Outside of the law office, I try to stay active in community organizations, but frankly due to family and business commitments, such as my involvement with the Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys to protect the rights of my clients in this State, these groups have taken a back seat in recent years.  In the past, I have participated in the MATA/ Red Cross Disaster related legal Services task force (co-chair 2010) and the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts.. When not at the office, Mike enjoys spending his time playing racquet sports, fly fishing, bird hunting, hiking and skiing.

I love what I do for a living.  My job gives me the opportunity to develop genuinely deep connections with my clients and coworkers.  We get to know each other very well and develop a sense of mutual respect.  This systems we employ and the culture we create sustains my office.  It also makes us highly effective at what we do.. My job also gives me a chance to have fun.  I love the competition that is a part of every case, the strategies and the gamesmanship.  I was very lucky to have worked with a creative and very bright lawyer when I started practicing, and his mantra was: “if you can’t have fun, what’s the point?”  Keeping calm in the process of trial or any court proceeding allows you to have fun, and it helps make the process more tolerable for all concerned – especially our clients.. My work also gives me a chance to help others while having fun.  I was lucky enough to have been in David Glover’s law school class, and David is one funny dude who happens to have his own radio talk show.  Some days, after long hours at my office surrounded by men and women in dark clothing, David invites me to do an “ask the lawyer” segment on the David Glover Show: .  Being in an environment filled with creative, funny people in bright clothing  is reason enough to appear on the show every time Dave invites me, but I really enjoy trying to help the listeners.  It is one simple way of helping the community and enjoying my time as an attorney.. Work also gives me the chance to give back to the community by supporting many charities – usually ones that are closely connected to the struggles of our clients.  For instance, we represented the family of a young man who was shot to death outside a nightclub at a prominent St. Louis landmark.  In the course of our work with the surviving family members, we were simply amazed by the sheer capacity for work, love and devotion the victim’s mother demonstrated.  As a single mother, she often worked two or more jobs and lived at or below the poverty line.  Her two boys went to school and grew up in a community that was filled with drugs, violence and family dysfunction.  Yet her strength of character guided those boys to become hard working, educated young men that were raising their own young families.  After the wrongful death case resolved, we donated money to a shelter for school age children that is known as a last stop before prison or death.  The young men and women who come out of this shelter often find themselves with a diploma in their hand, pride in their souls and a spring in their step because society didn’t give up on them.  By supporting the shelter, we felt as if we were helping others have the chance that our victim’s mother gave her son.

I help individuals who have been injured by the carelessness or recklessness of others. I believe it's important and my obligation to ensure the rights of those whose lives have been damaged not only physically but also in economic and extremely personal ways because an individual, a corporation, an insurance company, a government entity, or a hospital disregarded a safety rule and needlessly endangered them. In this belief and effort I have argued before both state and federal courts on behalf of individuals, researched and drafted memoranda in premises, uninsured motorist, trucking, and Section 1983 Civil Rights cases, as well as drafted arguments on Appeal. Most of the cases handled by my office settle. However, the five lawyers in our firm, including my brother and father, are trial lawyers. In combination we have tried over 350 jury trials. I am blessed to be a part of a profession and work for a firm that strives to ensure the dignity of every human being, despite power, despite wealth, despite intellect or accomplishment.

I have helped my clients recover millions of dollars against Insurance Companies. I am a lawyer that helps people solve their legal problems, dealing with Personal Injury Claims, Workers Compensation, Criminal/Traffic/DUI.

I have been practicing law for over 20 years, handling a wide array of cases.  I have built my practice primarily on word of mouth from satisfied clients.  Our personal attention to our clients is what sets us apart from many other firms.  I have represented generation after generation of families, and if there is a legal matter that my partners or I cannot help you with, we will try to help direct you to the right person.  We strive to be your "family" lawyers, and want to be the first call you make whenever a legal situation arises.  Give me a call and give me a chance to earn your business!
