Michael J. Brandabur is a founding partner of The Law Offices of Brandabur, Bowling & Crehan and he has been a lifelong resident of Hamilton, Ohio. He graduated from Miami University, received an MBA form the University of West Florida, and earned J.D. degree from Salmon P. Chase College of Law.

His practice has a primary focus in Corporate/Business Law, Civil Litigation, Immigration, Estate Planning and Personal Injury. Michael particularly enjoys assisting new Corporate/Business clients in setting up and starting their businesses. His business clients include the proverbial "Mom and Pop" store, as well as clients listed on Dunn & Bradstreet with annual revenues in the tens of million of dollars.

In addition to the firm's practice, Michael continues his service to our country, previously on active duty, and now serving as a Judge Advocate General in the United States Air Force Reserves, where he serves as an Assistant Staff Judge Advocate, Headquarters Pacific Air Forces, Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii. Michael believes the primarily international legal focus of his military service immeasurably aides in his immigration practice, as he frequently is required to understand and appreciate cultural differences in explaining and understanding legal issues.

Michael's diverse legal experience, understanding of cultural and language barriers, and knowledge that most people that trace their family tree, quickly discover that just a few generations ago, their ancestors migrated to this country, facilitate his handling of Immigration issues. Immigration is an area fraught with rules and exceptions to the rules. Failure to abide by even the seemingly most minor of details can result in immediate removal (deportation) and permanent denial of entry to the United States. Michael's second language is German, however, he can coordinate interpreters for many other languages, should you be unable to provide your own.

Personal injury is an area that should concern all people. A person’s life can change in an instant due to an injury caused by another. Michael will not allow your standard of living to diminish at the hands of another. His experience with Personal Injury matters will assist you in obtaining maximum compensation for damages you received due to no fault of your own. Michael previously worked for an insurance company and understands that the company’s interests are not always the same as yours. That is why he maintains the same “give not quarter, and leave no stone unturned” attitude when handling your personal injury case. Call him for a free consultation.

Michael is licensed to practice in all Ohio, Federal Courts and Military Courts and is a member of the Butler County, Hamilton County, Ohio and Federal Bar Associations. Additionally, Michael is active in the local community as a member of Rotary International.
