Michael is so knowledgeable, patient, and beyond helpful. Thank you for my health care proxy and living will. These are such important documents, and there are so many nuances it's important to get it done, and get it done by an attorney who knows what to do. Michael is the perfect man for the job. We'll be setting up a trust through him as well in the near future.

This review is based on the actual pro Bono work requested of Touro for my impoverished sister who needed to be integrated into Medicaid and all related are many states away.
Basically this involved processing the Medicaid application which they struggled to do. Ultimately, a paid attorney had to gather the signatures for Touro. Their knowledge of the welfare system was shockingly low in retrospect and there was a general apathy to the tasks they engaged. I regret engaging them as the cost of delays and lack of attentiveness to details exceeded any legal cost savings. Apathy, lack of curiosity

I successfully avoided making a will and "getting my affairs in order" because I couldn't bear the realization that I wouldn't live forever.
A friend on mine was really on me to get this done. I was hesitant because there are so many lawyers, who do you choose. After asking friends and relatives, Michael Puma was recommended a few times, so I decided to call.
He was very professional over the phone. I joking asked him if he made house calls for old ladies. He said he would.
Turns out he has his Doctorate; is very knowledgeable; agreed to start on some pressing real estate matters

As a current 2L I could not be happier with my decision to go to Touro Law Center.
The administration pushes heavily for students to work together and help each other. This helps creates one of the most friendly environments of any law school in the nation and allows for students to feel comfortable in what they are doing. The comfortably allows for students to excel and to be confident in their abilities.
After just one semester, I volunteered to represent Touro in the National Baseball Arbitration Competition. This was an opportunity I would not of had at most law schools and it certainly opened

I have been lucky enough to have met Joseph G. Dell Esq. who has given me the opportunity to intern and learn at his firm in my prior summer to attending Touro Law Center. Throughout my application process I have relied on Mr. Dell, Assistant Dean Justice, and the rest of the admissions faculty to help me come to a decision on where to attend in the Fall of 2017. I look forward to attending Touro Law as the faculty and alumni will shape me into the attorney I strive to be.

As a member of the Class of 2018, I have felt extremely supported by the faculty, staff, and my fellow peers since my first day of orientation. Throughout my law school career, I have had the opportunity to work and learn with some of the most amazing individuals that I have ever met. My professors have consistently pushed me to reach heights, which I have never thought could be achieved. At my school, I feel a part of something bigger. We are family. We know each other, we care for each other, and we grow together.
