Practice Areas: Consumer Protection

To say I had the average life, or paved road to becoming a lawyer, would be nothing further from the truth. I have endless gratitude to the one true G-d, and my incredible parents, wife, and children for carrying me through every endeavor and journey which has led me to become a part of the preeminent force in civil litigation defense with the Loan Lawyers family.. Not only was I blessed to have served as a Platoon Leader in the United States Military, but I have also been a part of a Championship Mixed Martial Arts Team, been on the forefront of Israel Advocacy both domestically and abroad, broadened my horizons by living over-seas, started and graduated law school as a single father, raising my two incredible daughters, and most recently, becoming a new husband and new father (again).. The old adage seems to go that challenges make us who we are. It's not just a saying; I've lived it. Depending on the choices we make, we may either rise above these challenges or fall victim to them.. My family went through periods of affluence, and we appreciated the meaning of a dollar, but as I entered my teen years, my family also struggled to get by, and electricity and canned food became a luxury. Throughout all of these experiences however, what was always imparted on me, and perhaps what galvanized my desire to become a lawyer the most, was seeing in practical ways how knowledge is power, and how the knowledge of the law provides you a sword to wield or a shield to defend.. The choice to delve deeper into becoming an exceptional legal practitioner first led me to the Chambers of Judge Spencer Eig. Judge Eig is not only an incredible person, but he is also the indelible professional figure in my life. He is a prime example of what it means to fight for others. Judge Eig imbued me with the fortitude to prevent people who carry neither a sword nor a shield, from becoming a powerless victim. I saw his administration of justice from the bench both in criminal and civil court, and how the rights of people are sacrosanct above all else in the American legal system. I next found my way to Professors George Knox and Scott Rogers, whose individual passions garner the highest esteem from their colleagues nationally as well as internationally. Not only did these leaders welcome me with open arms, but they formulated a task force for professionalism in the practice of law and then invited me to become a founding member. These great lawyers choose to be true to themselves first, never compromising being true, for being "right.". Whether it was my Federal Clerkship for the Honorable Alan Gold, or my first job as a trial lawyer for one of the foremost trail-blazers in foreclosure defense, all roads led to the ultimate expression of what it means to be the practitioner I have always wanted to be. All roads led to Loan Lawyers.. Never have I seen so many legal scholars, caring individuals, and dedicated warriors under one roof, who manage to use their second-to-none skillsets seamlessly, all the while faithfully maintaining an unshakeable humility and a desire to protect individuals who have no sword to wield, and no shield to defend, of their own. Being a member of the Loan Lawyers family means I must use my vast and various experiences to transform untenable situations for our clients whilst endlessly adhering to the very foundations of the Holy Torah, which G-d has set for me.

Hello, my name is Michael Davis, and I thank you for visiting my Avvo profile. I know your time is valuable so here is a brief summary of who we are and how we can help you. If you would like more information, please feel free to browse the remainder of our website. I clerked for David Boone in 1979 while I attended law school. In 1981, we began working together. Over the past thirty-five years, we have represented thousands of clients for all kinds of personal injury claims including medical malpractice, auto, truck, and motorcycle accidents, defective products or product liability claims, slip and falls, playground accidents, theme park accidents and victims of criminal attacks occurring at malls, apartments, clubs and bars. We have handled claims with injuries including traumatic brain injuries, paraplegia, quadriplegia, spinal cord injuries, amputations, blindness, CRPS-RSD, herniated discs, broken bones and more. We are always representing people that have suffered an injury. We are here to serve our clients. Some of our staff has been with us for over twenty years and helps us help our clients. We are proud of our profession and we love our work. We try to make all our clients feel special. We think they are. We are litigators. If the at-fault party fails to offer a fair settlement, we will file suit and prepare the case for trial. (Many personal injury lawyers do not litigate – see the section “Why hire us?” #2). We have technology to assist us in presenting a clear and persuasive case on your behalf. Even when we file suit, most of the cases settle before picking a jury. We know that attorney-client communication is one of the most important aspects of the relationship. We want to speak to our clients and hear from them. We return our calls. I give out my cellphone number to clients that want it. We have over 100 cases that settled or resulted in a jury verdict in excess of one million dollars. Many of these were referred to us from satisfied former clients. We want your case and we want your referrals. We know that it is only through exceeding your expectations that you will refer friends and relatives to our firm. The bottom line-most clients are searching for an attorney that will speak clearly, return calls and advise them of the process and, at the same time, an attorney that can obtain the recovery (money) deserved. We can serve your needs. I started this by stating that I’d be brief, so browse the website, review the videos and feel free to contact me at or call
