Hi, I’m Mike Morse.

In 1995, I founded Mike Morse Law Firm with a passion for doing what’s right and a drive to win—values I learned from my dad, a dedicated attorney whose legacy continues to inspire me every day. Today, as the owner of Michigan’s largest personal injury firm, I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built: a team of 250+ legal experts who have helped over 100,000 clients and recovered more than $2 billion for accident victims. Every case is personal to us, and we never lose sight of the people behind the paperwork.

Over the years, I’ve been honored to receive numerous awards

and accolades, including being named one of America’s 50 Most Influential Trial Lawyers by The National Law Journal and The Trial Lawyer Magazine; being rated as a Top Lawyer by DBusiness and Super Lawyers; and earning multiple Golden Gavel Awards for our work in legal education and advocacy. I’ve been featured as a legal expert on The Today Show, Huffington Post, and local news across Metro Detroit. I also co-founded Fireproof, a company that helps other law firms grow stronger from the inside out, built on lessons I shared in my best-selling book of the same name.

I was born and raised in Detroit, and I’m a proud dad to three incredible daughters. I love to golf, travel, and stay involved in the community that’s given me so much. Detroit will always be home, and I’ll always fight for the people who call it home too.

Over Three Decades of Winning

A Legacy of Results. A Commitment to You.

1989
Graduating College

After earning my B.S. in Business with honors from the University of Arizona, I started law school at the University of Detroit. I planned to join my dad’s personal injury firm, but during my first year, he passed away unexpectedly while on vacation. That loss changed everything, but I stayed in school to honor his legacy.
1992
The First Few Years

After graduating and passing the bar, I joined a small law firm to get hands-on experience. Those early years taught me how to manage cases, connect with clients, and start thinking like an entrepreneur.
1995
Fired, Then Founded

On my dad’s birthday, I was fired by his best friend. It hurt, but it lit a fire. Within days, I opened the doors to my own firm. No clients. No staff. Just a rented desk, a phone, and the drive to build something meaningful.
2007
Office Fire

A fire destroyed our office, forcing us to rebuild from the ground up. That moment became a turning point. We came back stronger and with better systems, a clearer purpose, and a renewed commitment to growth.
2008
Hiring John Nachazel

I hired John Nachazel as our 27th employee—and our first-ever Chief Operating Officer. With John’s leadership and operational expertise, I was finally able to delegate, focus on growth, and scale the firm with structure and intention. His role helped transform Mike Morse Law Firm from a growing law practice into a high-performing legal business.
2011
Moving Into Our Headquarters

We moved into our current headquarters at Evergreen and Northwestern. It gave us space to grow and a physical home base for the vision we were building.
2011
First TV Ads and 855-MIKE-WINS

We launched our first commercials on local TV across Metro Detroit—and with them, 855-MIKE-WINS was born. The bold messaging and memorable phone number helped us stand out in a crowded market, boosting visibility and cementing our brand in the minds of injury victims across the region.
2013
The Launch of Project Backpack

We launched Project Backpack with 300 backpacks filled with school supplies to help kids in our community start the year strong. Today, we’ve distributed over 300,000 backpacks and counting.
2020
Founding Fireproof

I co-authored Fireproof with John to share how we built and scaled the firm. The response from lawyers around the country was incredible! Its success led to the launch of Fireproof, a coaching and mastermind company now helping hundreds of law firms grow using the same proven framework.
2021
Meet Your Best Friend Begins

We partnered with Michigan Humane to launch Meet Your Best Friend, our annual pet adoption event. Since then, we’ve helped over 1,000 animals find loving homes and built new community connections along the way.
Now
Continuing our Journey

Today, Mike Morse Law Firm is Michigan’s largest injury firm with over 250 legal experts, more than $2 billion recovered, and 100,000+ clients helped. What began at a single rented desk has grown into a firm with offices across the state, serving injury victims wherever they need us. Through it all, I’ve never lost sight of why I do this: to help people, honor legacy, and give back to the community that shaped me.

It took me three days to decide and Mike Morse Law Firm won, hands down. Thank you Matt, Leslie, and Shaina. There aren’t enough words to express my gratitude for this team. Thank Mike Morse and staff for everything.

DeAnn Go

Someone pulled out in front of me while I was driving on a road, speed limit 45. I had no option except to slam on the brakes. I hit the car. My dominant hand wrist was shattered and dislocated. I didn't want to hire an attorney because I thought I'd be able to handle it on my own. I had no idea how extensive my injury was, how long the road to recovery would be, or the pain which I will have for the rest of my life! I was led to the Mike Morse Law Firm by my sister who hired him years ago. The phone was answered immediately and within five minutes, my case was started. All my bills were taken care of, so I could focus on my rehabilitation. Then came the "discovery" phase of my case where I was introduced to Allen Ayoub, attorney extraordinaire. It was him who kept me on track and advised me with exceptional care. I trusted his expertise and together, we were able to come up with a settlement that I know I never would have gotten on my own. My sister was right to lead me to the Mike Morse Law Firm. Thanks to all who had a hand in my case, I can't imagine trying to do it on my own. Thank-you, thank-you and thank-you.

I want to thank Katrina Martin and Lisa Byrnes for their outstanding customer service to me regarding my legal case. I was skeptical of contacting a large law firm such as Mike Morse but they were the kindest individuals and really gave the upmost personal service to me. They kept me informed all the way through the process from day 1 until the settlement of my case. I thought I would be just a number with a large firm but it was just the opposite. I would recommend The Mike Morse Law Firm to anyone that is in need of legal services and counsel. A big shout out to Katrina Martin and Lisa Byrnes. I am so glad I decided to go with the Mike Morse Law Firm. Thank you for all that you have done for me.
