Hello McLaughlin family - I'm just seeing this and was unaware that Michael passed away last year. I was a law clerk and then associate working with Michael with Iglehart & McLaughlin in 1984-1986. Though I have long left the practice of law, I remember him fondly -- disorganized, creative, postive, and always working hard for clients. For the short time I was with him, he was a great (albeit hard to keep up!) mentor. He embraced all things new: had the first car phone I can remember, and a closet full of ties for his DWI clients. I remember his mom Rita and dad Jim and rest of the clan that kept the office running. I was there when Rick Losemann, Cathy Muller, Rick Gilbert, and his sister Ann where at the firm. His clients love him. Sorry for your loss.

Mike was a great friend, MasterChef and wine connoisseur. I remember in law school the great meals we had at his father`s house with terrific wine tastings. He was always a joy to be with. He will be missed.

Growing up in Baltimore, Mike was my best friend through grade school, high school and college. We had many riotous times and always had time for a good laugh.
The world will be less bright with his passing.
Rest in Peace, Mike.
Your friend,
Lanny
