At Skyline Law Group, Michele has built her practice around one theme: to do what is best for each client given their particular situation and desired outcome. She is an experienced negotiator and civil trial attorney with a focus on real estate, construction, foreclosure and contract law. She works with homeowners, business owners, landlords, tenants, contractors, and other individuals in need of an experienced and responsive attorney for legal advice, problem solving, dispute resolution, representation at trial or on appeal.
Michele is a 2011 and 2012 recipient of Washington’s Super Lawyers “Rising Star” status, which is an honor given to no more than 2.5% of all Washington lawyers based on peer evaluations and independent research. She is also rated as “Superb” by a National lawyer rating site, and routinely receives a 5 star rating from current and past clients.
As a small business owner and executive in the construction industry prior to becoming a lawyer, Michele brings a practical, real world approach to solving legal issues. Her interests outside of her law practice include spending time with her family, reading, and playing video games.
