He is licensed to practice in all Michigan state and federal courts. He is also certified as a Case Evaluator/Mediator and is often selected by other plaintiff attorneys to sit as a designated arbitrator on their client’s behalf to resolve complicated cases.

Committed to his community and pro bono legal causes, Moss has a strong affiliation with the famed Detroit-based Downtown Boxing Gym (DBG Detroit), a free after-school academic and athletic program for at-risk students ages 8-18. He has volunteered with the organization from its earliest days, helping to establish the Downtown Boxing Gym’s original board of directors and serving as one of the first official members, while gathering executives from international and local powerhouse corporations to also serve. He continues his efforts with DBG to this day as a board member, benefactor, thought leader, fundraiser, and a trusted legal advisor to the gym and its leaders.
Moss holds a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law and a Bachelor of Arts from Western Michigan University.
