About Michael J.
Michael J. Laszlo trained first as an observer of systems and light. He earned a B.A. in political science and photography from the University of Utah in 1997, then turned to law and completed his J.D. at Cleveland State University in 2003. The combination of a humanities undergraduate degree and a law degree shapes how he approaches facts and narratives in a case.
Laszlo began practicing in the mid-2000s. Records show he has been associated with Laszlo & Associates, LLC since 2004. Early years in practice involved the routine, detailed work that prepares a lawyer for courtroom and client demands alike. He learned to manage client expectations, sift through documents, and set a steady pace for cases that can stretch across months or years.
Over time he built a practice that crosses state lines and federal circuits. He is admitted to practice in Arizona, California, Colorado and Washington, and he is also admitted in the 6th, 9th and 10th U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal. That mix of state and federal admissions means he handles matters in trial courts and can pursue appeals when necessary.
Peers and opposing counsel describe him as methodical and direct in court filings and hearings. He prefers plain language in briefs and relies on organized evidence rather than theatrical argument. His background in photography occasionally surfaces in the way he assembles visual exhibits and presents timelines. Those details can matter when technical points or complex sequences are at issue.
Clients who remain with him cite consistent communication. He keeps files current and tries to set realistic milestones. The office at Laszlo & Associates, LLC manages cases that arrive from several jurisdictions, which requires coordinating different procedural rules and deadlines. That part of the work demands administrative diligence as much as legal analysis.
He currently practices at Laszlo & Associates, LLC, handling matters across the states and federal circuits where he is licensed.
