Our Philosophy

Why families choose Michele L. Young Company.

The Michele L. Young Company was established to affect real change through coordinated efforts among legal professionals, politicians, activists, and community organizations.

We are a Cincinnati law firm devoted to helping children and solving legal problems that other people are unable to resolve.


Distinguished Practice

Lawyering distinguished by innovativeness, integrity, non-stop hard work, and heart.

Attorney Michele Young is a graduate of Georgetown University Law Center and went on to clerk for three federal judges. She served as an adjunct law professor, authored law articles, and co-authored a law book for the American Bar Association.

Attorney Young considers it an honor and pleasure to redress each and every injustice and to serve the legal needs of each individual in need of help. Her lawyering is distinguished by an emphasis on innovativeness, integrity, non-stop hard work, and heart. She takes great pride in solving what appears to be, at first blush, an unsolvable legal problem and winning a seemingly impossible fight.


A Voice for the Voiceless

A lawyer who speaks for those who do not have a voice.

Michele Young is a lawyer who prides herself on representing those who have been bullied, forgotten, left behind, or counted out. Her efforts have borne fruit in terms of giving rise to new leaders and giving a voice to those who previously did not have a voice.

Noted for reaching across political, faith, and demographic lines, Michele developed bi-partisan support for public-safety initiatives.


A Different Standard of Care

What sets our practice apart.

Personal Attention

Your case will not be handed off to an associate you have never met.

The Hardest Cases

Complex, high-stakes matters that require creativity, persistence, and courage.

Systemic Thinking

We look beyond the individual case to the systems that created the harm.

Community Partnership

We work with organizations across Cincinnati to create lasting impact.

“We don’t just take cases. We take on systems that fail children and families.”
— Michele L. Young
