About Michael A.
Michael A. Macrides built his legal foundation at New York Law School, where he completed his J.D. in 2007. He finished law school during a period of intense change in the legal market, and he entered practice equipped for the demands of modern litigation and client representation. The degree set the stage for a career spent largely in New York practice.
Early in his career Macrides gravitated toward litigation work. He developed courtroom skills and a steady approach to case preparation. Peers describe him as methodical in research and exacting in deposition practice. Those qualities helped him earn recognition from SuperLawyers; he was named to the New York SuperLawyers Rising Stars list, an acknowledgment that tracks early-career achievement among New York attorneys.
Macrides has spent significant time at Belluck & Fox LLP. At the firm he has taken on responsibilities that range from client counseling to drafting pleadings and managing discovery. His days often involve a mix of office strategy sessions and courtroom appearances. He approaches each file with a practical mindset, aiming to clarify options for clients and to move matters forward efficiently.
Colleagues say Macrides is attentive to the details that can shift a case. He is deliberate in building records and in preparing witnesses. That steadiness has informed his practice and how he manages competing deadlines. Outside of motion practice and trial preparation, he has invested time in developing arguments grounded in careful statutory and case-law work.
Recognition such as the Rising Stars listing reflects peer and industry notice, but Macrides' work is grounded in the routine demands of client representation. He maintains ties to the New York legal community and continues to refine litigation techniques as the law evolves. He is known for clear communication with clients and for setting realistic expectations about outcomes and timelines.
As of 2026 Macrides remains at Belluck & Fox LLP, where he focuses his practice on litigation and client representation. He continues to represent clients in matters handled by the firm and to participate in the day-to-day litigation tasks that define his work.
