About

Michael Buscemi is a 20-year litigator and founder of Buscemi Hallett LLP where he serves as the firm’s lead trial counsel and is a managing partner. He is dedicated to professionalism and excellence providing aggressive, cost effective legal representation to expeditiously meet the goals of his clients.Michael Buscemi provides legal services as it pertains to insurance coverage issues, business and construction law and litigation. Michael offers a full range of legal work, including review and analysis of insurance policies, presentation of tenders and correspondence relative to a claim, strategic development of and plans to maximize recovery or minimize exposure as well as bad faith litigation.The firm's specialized insurance practice and experienced litigation team sets it apart from other law firms.  Although many matters can be resolved pre-litigation, litigation counsel is often necessary to encourage the insurance carrier to do the right thing before litigation is required. When the insurance carrier fails, in our opinion, to provide the full benefits owed under the respective policy of insurance, Buscemi Hallett LLP will litigate to recover what is owed plus all available damages.The firm’s measure of success is also what sets Buscemi Hallett LLP apart. While “winning the case” is necessary, it is not always sufficient. Litigation in California is costly, time consuming and increasingly complex. A successful outcome therefore also requires that resolution be achieved on time and within budget. Equally important is prompt and concise reporting of facts, law and strategy as “good decisions require good information”. The firm’s clients rely on this high level of accurate reporting to make informed decisions, and manage litigation costs and risk.
