Fraser Trebilcock Attorney Michael E. Cavanaugh was recently selected by his peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America© 2015 in the fields of Administrative/Regulatory Law, Bet-the-Company litigation, Commercial Litigation, and Labor and Employment Litigation. He was also selected as a 2014 Super Lawyer in the area of Business Litigation.
Mr. Cavanaugh is a past recipient of the 2008 Ingham County Bar Association Outstanding Attorney award, and is a life member of the “Fellows of the American Bar Association”. He is an AV preeminent rated attorney by Martindale Hubbell, and has successfully represented clients before all levels of the state and federal court system including the United States Supreme Court.

Best Lawyers© is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which almost 50,000 leading attorneys cast nearly five million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas; because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
Super Lawyers is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high-degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The selection process is multi-phased and includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations. Only five percent of attorneys in Michigan are awarded with the honor.
