Provided by Michael Mosberg
Practice Areas
Michael, a founding partner of MSSG, is a national leader in family law, representing high net worth individuals in all areas of family and matrimonial law. Michael understands the demands of handling the most significant divorce cases in the nation, and works closely with his clients to help them successfully navigate the divorce process. He strives to arrive at private and amicable resolution whenever possible, but is equally as comfortable in the courtroom where he litigates both financial and custody issues when settlement proves unattainable. As he deals with matters that are often featured in local and national media, Michael works with his clients and their advisors to address public relations challenges that can arise during the divorce process.
Career
Prior to going into private practice, he served as a law clerk to the Honorable Virginia M. Morgan of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.
