Best lawyer I’ve known

When I got hurt at work last year I thought my life was over. That was until I hired attorney Shawn von Briesen. This guy is amazing. From day one he has always been extremely helpful and patient when needed. Also has always returned any phone calls, or emails that needed answering right away.(And we... all know how stressful unanswered questions can be.) So if you’re looking for a great lawyer who get things done without hassle, I implore you to chose Jonathan Perkins as the law firm, and the one and only Shawn Von Briesen. That guy is good!!

Completely Satisfied

ln the beginning of March 2024 i was involved in a hit and run accident that left me without a car and in pain and feeling alone and confused about what to do! From the moment i reached out to Jonathan Perkins i felt like they were more than just my attorney but a place that was concerned for my wel...l being and helping me recover from this horrific experience! The very next day they reached out to me and took control of the situation immediately putting me at ease that i had selected the best Law Firm to represent me! Through the whole process they kept me informed of the situation on what to do and what was happening with my situation! Trinea was fabulous to work with and completely helpful and understanding of the urgency of my situation! They handled everything from beginning to end and i could not be HAPPIER and more SATISFIED with the representation and results given to me by the compassion, professionalism and overall representation from JONATHAN PERKINS!!! Thank you so much for everything you did for myself and my family!!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I fully endorse Mr. Perkins. He is our "go to" attorney for Connecticut personal injury matters. I send to him my New York clients who get injured in Connecticut and must sue there. Similarly, Mr. Perkins sends to me his Connecticut clients who must sue in New York. We have had a fruitful relationship for 10+ years. The office is pleasant and efficient, and all of the cases that he has sent to me are well prepared. We can just pick-up on the case where he left off. I fully endorse this lawyer."

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.
