About

Michael’s commitment to Houston, Galveston, and the Gulf Coast is firmly rooted in his family’s deep ties to this region. His family is well known in the area for owning multiple restaurants, hotels, casinos, and the Houston Rockets. They have made it a family mission to give back to the community that made them successful. Michael has long been an active participant in the Houston Children’s Charity and Texas Children’s Hospital fundraising efforts. Growing up, he also volunteered annually at the Shriner’s Hospital in Galveston, handing out toys to the children undergoing treatment there.

Those experiences were transformative for Michael. They showed him that what matters most to him is finding a way to make a lasting contribution to his community.

After spending a year working in the real estate division at Landry’s, Michael realized that he wanted to pursue a career that would allow him to work every single day on issues that matter in his community. He determined that, while he would always take a sincere interest in the family business, he wanted to make meaningful change in the Houston and Galveston areas as an attorney. For his practice, Michael chose personal injury law because it affords him the chance to work directly with injured people in his community and improve their quality of life.

Michael believes that all people deserve exemplary legal representation. Because of his lifetime of living in Houston, he has developed a broad network of relationships with the most successful, most qualified legal experts in the region. Michael’s clients reap the benefits of those connections and can always rest assured that the right team of lawyers is fighting for them.

When he is not working, Michael enjoys cheering on the UH Cougars. the Houston Rockets, and his beloved Ole Miss Rebels. He also adores his five dogs.
