Meet Michael Garth Moore

Born and grew up Columbus, Ohio’s west side, to an Irish newspaperman father from Boston and a mother whose family were miners and boilermen. I remember the steam engines chuffing on the spur line running near my grandmother’s house, and the warm summer nights on the porch before air conditioning. Big extended family and terrific holiday German cooking by my grandmother. Enlisted United States Air Force, served Far East, Tactical Navigation cryptologist decoding Communist Chinese air communications. Returned to Ohio to several jobs before beginning university studies in 1976. Part-time kiln grunt for Peggy my potter wife; decade of Muay Thai fight training anniversary February 2014; 8 years Tai Chi practitioner; good gas welder, too!

I have known Michael G. Moore for more than fifty years. As a fellow trial attorney, I have co-counseled with him on numerous pieces of civil litigation during the years 1986 to 1988 and again from 2013 through the present.

His success rate with both juries and trials to the court is extremely high. He has obtained many verdicts for clients that are in the millions of dollars. Mike has also successfully brought to settlement before trial hundreds of cases which have resulted in lucrative recoveries for his clients.

I have witnessed first-hand Mike’s highest degree of adherence to the attorney rules of ethics and to the customs of courtesy and common sense. As a result of his professional conduct, he has the utmost trust and respect of judges, opposing counsel, and the other personnel that are involved in the court systems in which he operates.

Mike Moore is a tireless and extremely skilled fighter for his clients, in preparing their cases, in the courtroom, and if necessary in the courts of appeals–he doesn’t give up, no matter how big the lawfirm is on the other side, he keeps the interests of his clients foremost. A bear for work, a lion for his clients, an eagle of the law.

I endorse this lawyer’s work. Mike is an arduous advocate for his clients and very knowledgeable about the law and procedure. He is very challenging as an opposing attorney and I have high regard for him. You should strongly consider consulting with Mike should you have need for the services he provides.
