Horrible communicator, will leave you on read for months

Also will forget to file your paperwork and you'll find out you're still married several months after you THOUGHT you were divorced.

Mom

The last 7 months have been horrible for our family. My son was falsely accused by a very jealous girl. I feel like it was almost to the point of her being a stalker. We knew we needed the best and we got the best. I highly recommend Zachary Brandmeir and I’m hoping we don’t ever need a lawyer again ...but if we do, we know who we will be contacting.

Divorce

Mr.Brandmeir is a fantastic attorney with his clients' best interests at heart. He is very fair and reasonable and helps clients understand every aspect of their case. He was very understanding and patient with the covid-19 chaos.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
