About Michelle Lombino
Michelle brings to her clients legal acumen developed as a Wall Street lawyer tempered with empathic listening skills honed as a certified mediator and a certified yoga and meditation teacher.
She represents individuals, entrepreneurial companies and commercial lenders in sophisticated business and real estate transactions and disputes, workouts, bankruptcies, and commercial litigation. Michelle engages in a dialogue with her clients, aimed at developing a mutual understanding of the clients’ interests and priorities.Only after that does the conversation shift to legal analysis and strategy. In her nearly 30 years of practice, Michelle has mastered the art of written communication.
Her clients routinely remark on her ability to capture their intentions and to convey their expectations, whether in a letter, a contract, a pleading, or a brief. She is also adept at litigating disputes where necessary, but as an “understanding-based” mediator, increasingly seeks to help parties resolve their disputes in a less adversarial format.
