Michael is an attorney in Boise, Idaho, who has helped to develop Back the Blue Idaho and is working on our nonprofit. 

"I provide a wide range of business-savvy legal services to small and medium companies and nonprofits.

My favorite thing to do for a business is to take their standard sales contract and strip it down from an unintelligible 20-page monstrosity to a concise, 3-page doc that is easy for their customers to understand and to sign!

I have experience in a number of industries, including Real Estate, Construction, Defense, and Technology (Hardware, Software and E-Commerce)."
