History of Our Firm

After graduating from the California Western School of Law and passing the California Bar Exam, C. Michael Finen began his career working for an insurance defense firm in Rancho Santa Fe, California, representing clients such as Allstate Insurance, IPC Gulf Insurance Co. and the City of San Diego.  After several years, Mr. Finen made the decision to move away from the city and accept a position as the Deputy District Attorney for El Dorado County.  This job entailed prosecuting misdemeanor and felony crimes within El Dorado County, and provided Mr. Finen with extensive experience, conducting both jury and non-jury trials.  

In 1981, Mr. Finen left the D.A.'s office and opened a private practice in Cameron Park, California.  Since then, Mr. Finen has been privileged to represent many clients in a wide variety of matters, including real estate transactions, drafting Wills and Trusts, administering decedents' estates, and handling probate matters.  

The Law Offices of C. Michael Finen have built a strong reputation over the past three decades by reliantly helping clients overcome complications in numerous areas of the law.
