Responsive, approachable, Reliable, Fast, and MADE IT HAPPEN!

In less than one year, Brennen helped my family to settle a legal malpractice case that I’m extremely grateful for. Not only did we settle within my range, his responsiveness was unlike any professional I’ve dealt with. You can trust him on every level and he’s the “guy” to do it for you. He managed ...all parties (counseled me on any questions I had — responded within an hour of any emails I sent) but generally, he was the one keeping me in the loop every single month. Also… because of his networking, he actually knew the plaintiff’s attorney, which made for a friendly yet firm and strong settlement. He was the perfect lawyer for this case and I can’t recommend him enough… you are 100% in good hands with Brennen Maki.

Exceptional

Attorney Maki was absolutely wonderful to work with always kept me updated and was always looking out for my best interest. I had a very difficult case and he was able to get a very fair settlement for me. I would recommend Attorney Maki to anyone I know .

Needed Someone Kind With Bite

Defamation and libel suits can be notoriously difficult to win, but their impact on a business can be deadly, so when I finally decided something had to be done to make it stop I reached out to a friend of mine who works in a law office. She recommended 3 different attorneys, but when I spoke with Br...ennen I knew he was the lawyer I needed... sympathetic, but with the right amount of fight to help me get through an ordeal that was hurting me as much on a personal level as on a professional one. Brennen laid out a clear plan of "attack" and then pursued it vigorously. He was always available to me and helped me remain as calm and detached as I could possibly be, given the situation. The course of action he took enabled us get through the legal system fairly expeditiously, and when it came time to negotiate a settlement in my favor, he provided counsel that was prudent and appropriate. Having him on my side allowed me to negotiate an awful and unjust ordeal until such time as the suit was resolved in my favor.

You can stop looking for a lawyer now.

I was hit by a car while riding my bike, and I contacted one of my best friends who is a family lawyer (Freed Marcroft), asking for a referral. I trust my life with her, and she aimed me immediately and squarely at Brennen Maki. He showed up in-person to listen to all the details of the crash (from m...y couch and on pain killers) (me, not him), and he answered every question with total confidence and insight. He told me everything I needed to know and expect, from how long this all might take, to how much money we're talking here, to all the legal what-if's that were keeping me up at night (it also could have been the terrible physical pain I was in keeping me up at night, but you catch my drift). During the process, he and his assistant got back to me bafflingly quickly whenever I had the most inane question. He is thorough, kind, passionate, talks plain, and is smart as hell. You can rest easy. He is the ONLY one I'll refer people to. Thank you Brennen, and thanks to your whole staff!

Simply the Best

We had to hire an attorney originally to file a defamation claim however we ended up having to hire an attorney to defend ourselves against an organization with a very complex structure and also defend ourselves against a restraining order. It is our luck that we hired Brennen. From the onset he was... efficient professional and an excellent communicator. He held no punches when dealing with the opposition. We had two court appearances' and we won our case . Brennen's skills in court were excellent. His knowledge of our case and how he presented it was fantastic. In our other realted matter this was settled out of court and again Brennens attention to detail and advice all through this was excellent. Highly recommended.
