Mike is also the author of "Finishing Machine,” a book about a client accused of murdering an unarmed man (a must read for anyone wishing to get a firsthand look at courthouse politics).

He also has a steady presence in national media including a CBS 48 Hours episode entitled “Trail of Tears” & his high-profile public response to the Malheur Wildlife Refuge Occupation through his representation of Ammon Bundy. Mike gained notoriety as an attorney when he stood on the courthouse steps as Ammon Bundy's attorney & told the remaining occupiers of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge to "please stand down." In the aftermath of the standoff he was credited with assisting in negotiating a peaceful resolution for the remaining four protester holdouts.

As stated in the Register-Guard : “Arnold says it’s rugby, which can get pretty rough, that ‘fits in perfectly with (his) personality.’ He’s quick to add that the attitude he brought to the pitch sometimes carries over to his law practice. ‘I have a tendency to put my head down & run into a wall if the cause is right.’
