Michael DiFalco

My priority for my clients is to guide them through an arduous court case to provide them with the opportunity to write the next chapter in their life. I tailor my approach to each client’s priorities and positions. To the extent that matters can be predicted, I will always provide a realistic perspective of how the law could be applied to the particular facts and circumstances of a case. Managing expectations and guiding clients to a fair and reasonable compromise or resolution is my paramount concern. Since I thrive on helping people and solving problems, I bring an optimistic and positive approach to practicing in a very difficult area of law.

When matters cannot be resolved, I conduct hearings and trials strategically, pragmatically, and professionally, so that fairness and the facts prevail. I spend most of my time helping clients avoid litigation and trial, but knowing how to obtain a successful determination through the courts is critical to leveraging a fair and appropriate settlement.

With more than a decade of experience handling hundreds of cases, I have the ability to get results on the issues my clients view as priorities. When cases or certain issues cannot be settled, I have a solid record of success at trials, hearings, and appeals.
