Finding an attorney was a pain until I spoke with Brian. After speaking with many different attorneys, none of them took the time that Brian did to explain my options and offer his expertise. He is very detail oriented and very prepared. He answered all of my questions and I never felt rushed or pressured in any way. He made sure I understood all of the possible outcomes, good or bad. Brian earned my trust the first time we spoke. He's very genuine and you can tell that he actually cares about helping people, a quality that is not easy to find nowadays. The outcome was exactly what we hoped for and I could not be happier. I wouldn't want anyone else in my corner. Thank you Brian

From the initial consultation to ongoing updates and ultimately the trial, Brian was prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. He provided the best information regarding each decision and never pressured me to go one way or another. Throughout the process Brian developed a relationship with me based on trust, mutual respect, and faith in my innocence. Ahead of trial, Brian set realistic expectations and prepped me for everything I needed to expect. At trial, Brian was prepared, strategic, and successful. We were able to win the case and have all charges dropped. I would strongly recommend him.

I would recommend Brian to my family and friends. He was great. I hired him for DV. He was amazing in the court room. I didn't have to talk much. He did it all for me. Anytime I needed a question answered I would text him he always go right back to me within an hour. Very nice guy.

Brian is a patient and kind lawyer who took good care of me, underpromised and over delivered. I think even he was surprised at the amazing outcome of my case (dismissed!) But I am not. His attention to detail, his methodical handling of the facts and his cross examination of the police officer was perfection. I got the best outcome possible (other than not having been prejudged by the cop and then unjustly arrested in the 1st place) which is dismissal by the DA. Thank you Brian, it was a long year for me but you made it bearable and in the end we won. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Our family is forever grateful.

I had the opportunity to work with Brian on a couple of occasions. I appreciate his calm and professional approach. He kept me calm, and well informed. in both cases. He was straightforward and very helpful. I am extremely satisfied with his services

I was referred to Brian through another lawyer due to his expertise and I could not have asked for a more warm, friendly and professional attorney to assist me during a difficult time. He was always easy to get a hold of and took the extra time to explain my case and the details around it. Thank you Brian for making the best out of my situation. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice.
