“Michael Aucoin is one of the most knowledgeable and thorough expert witnesses that I have ever seen or been associated with in my law practice. He can make extremely technical electrical concepts understandable to the layman and does so in a very accessible and communicative manner. I cannot say enough good things about Michael Aucoin and would recommend him to anyone in need of assistance with a case, or any other matter, involving electricity or electricity-related issues.”
