PRACTICE AREAS EXPERIENCE EDUCATION PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT BAR ADMISSION MEMBERSHIPS AND AFFILIATIONS Michael and family The most rewarding part of practicing law for me is knowing that I make a positive impact on the lives of my clients. I have more than thirty years of experience, and I was the first member of the Mecklenburg County Bar to be board certified by the North Carolina Bar as an Elder Law Specialist. I am a partner at Conrad Trosch & Kemmy, and I head our Estate Planning, Probate, and Elder Law Department. Since 1987, I have helped thousands of clients achieve their planning goals and administer the estates of family members or close friends. There are few other attorneys in this area with that kind of experience. Having had a more general practice that once included areas such as business law and real estate, I bring a broader perspective to Estate Planning, Probate, and Elder Law, in which I now specialize. For my clients who are planning their estates or trying to protect assets, I want to help them achieve their goals in a way that they understand and feel good about. For my Probate and Estate Administration clients, my goal is to take as much of their burden from them as possible during a time when they are grieving. If my clients only take one thing away from my representation of them, I want them to know that I truly care about their problems and will work to solve them. The services that I offer are valuable, and in order for my clients to believe that what I do for them is valuable, I need to work hard to earn their trust and confidence. I am married and have two children. My family is a fantastic support system. They have always believed in me and have been understanding when I have needed to work late hours and on weekends. My wife, Debbie, has been especially supportive, being willing to work at the firm in administrative positions over the course of the past twenty years or so, whenever we needed her. Just knowing the level of her support and that of my children has given me the freedom and confidence to grow as an attorney.
