About Me
Michael J. Slugocki
Michael is a motivated advocate who believes that everyone should have access to an affordable attorney. For this reason, Michael launched Slugocki Law PLC in 2021. With seven years of litigation experience, Michael is able to offer skilled services in three legal areas: Social Security Disability, workers compensation, and low-level criminal law (such as traffic citations). Michael prides himself on offering one-on-one individualized client support while maintaining affordable legal fees for people of all backgrounds.
Michael was raised in Scottsdale, Arizona and attended the University of Arizona for his undergraduate degree. He moved back to his birth city of Chicago for law school where he graduated from DePaul University College of Law in 2014. While in Chicago he clerked with the Chicago Transit Authority, and after passing the bar worked as an associate attorney practicing workers compensation.
In 2016 Michael moved home to Arizona and became an attorney at the nation’s largest social security disability firm, Citizens Disability. Through this position Michael represented nearly 800 clients across 14 states and 35 cities. In 2018, Michael transitioned to a local Phoenix firm to focus specifically on representing individuals in Arizona where he honed his skills as a Social Security Disability attorney and learned what it takes to have a winning case. Michael started Slugocki Law PLC in 2021 to offer a personalized and affordable legal service for his community.
When Michael is not practicing law, you can find him hiking and exploring our beautiful state of Arizona. Michael has been an avid outdoorsman since he was a child while earning his way to an Eagle Scout Rank. He is also an active participant in local civic and community affairs.
