Courtney's lawyers

Michael is Courtney's lawyer. In the beginning of The Aftermath: I she is talking to Michael when she says, "We're gonna sue the pants off this show, Michael!"

Total Drama Island
In Basic Straining, Courtney was wrongfully voted off due to Harold's vote-switch, and she used this to win a law suit that was revealed later on. She said that they would be hearing from her attorney. However, in Haut Camp-ture we learn that this lawsuit was a failure.

In The Aftermath: II, Michael has apparently advised Courtney not to comment on the progression of their lawsuit. Later, when Courtney is led to believe that Gwen and Duncan have gotten too close to each other, she is furious and leaves the set to call her lawyer. It is likely that used it as further ammunition for her lawsuit.

In Ocean's Eight - Or Nine, Courtney tells of her wrongful dismissal of termination subpoena. As Courtney says that the law offices of "Fleckman, Fleckman, Cohen, and Grouse" won her lawsuit, it is only inferred that Michael was actually a part of this. It is also revealed that Michael managed to gain for Courtney invincibility during her first challenge on the show, protecting her from a unanimous elimination at the hands of the Killer Grips (though Chris may have been taking precautions against lawsuits when they couldn't vote her off).

In the beginning of One Million Bucks, B.C., Chris mentions him, and Courtney's other lawyers as pit bulls before correcting himself. It is also revealed that Michael has made a separate set of rules for Courtney, such as dining with Chris and the producers on fine food, keeping her PDA on ser, having premium bedding, and her own private bathroom.

At the end of that same episode, Chris acknowledges that Heather was unsuccessful in cutting off Courtney's hair for herself. He explains that thanks to her "kick-butt" lawyer, they can't so much as harm a hair on her head.

In Dial M for Merger, she mentions that her lawyer (meaning Michael) is already working on LeShawna's spa incident. She also tried to contact him and others to get a bomb expert but she could not reach them (It was most likely that they were on lunch break, until she failed to contact them again in "Super Hero-ld", suggesting that it could possibly be more than accident that they weren't able to recieve her call). She reveals that she's paying him and the other lawyers 20% of her settlement.

Courtney tries to contact her lawyers (including Michael) again in Super Hero-ld but got an "out of office" reply.

In Princess Pride, Michael and Courtney's other lawyers demand 80% of the profits gained by the Princess Courtney Doll, resulting in the doll's switch to "Princess Beth" dolls.

In Get a Clue Courtney tries to contact him and the others but finds out that her PDA has no bars on the train.

Trivia

 * In Dial M for Merger, Chris mentions that he PICKED Courtney, hinting Chris might have let Michael win the case, only to get ratings up. This is unlikely, since Chris' massage budget was cut, but he could have let Courtney on thinking he'd get even MORE money from the drama Courtney'd cause.
 * Courtney has tried reaching Michael, or whatever firm he works for, and has failed. This may hint that even Micheal doesn't like Courtney and may have only helped her to get some of the prize money.
 * It is unknown if the "pathetic lawyer" that Courtney mentioned in the special was Michael or another lawyer. But "pathetic lawyer" seems like he's not Michael, because in One Million Bucks B.C., Courtney quotes to Beth, " Not when you have a good lawyer!".


 * In the Best. Game. Ever, Courtney will mention Michael if you try to break up an alliance with her. If you talk to her she says that Michael recommends that she records every conversation she has. She also mentions that she is legally guaranteed to win this season.
 * Week 18 tasks are about making Courtney happy so she does not sue. After finding Courtney's missing PDA, Chris makes the intern find apples for a fruit basket which Chris will give to her lawyers.
 * Michael may not be the only lawyer working for Courtney.
