Exceptional Attorney

Brian is an exceptionally bright, insightful, caring and truly decent young attorney. I initially had hired another highly respected lawyer in his firm to handle my case. Brian was his assistant or associate. Within a couple of meetings it was clear that Brian was the superior attorney. I soon ...requested that he become the lead attorney for my case. It was extremely reassuring to know that I had an attorney who was able to listen and fight for me. He cut to the essence of the arguments and was able to explain any and all alternatives available to me. He pushed for me when ever he had an opportunity and worked tirelessly for me. He did not attempt to steer me in a direction that would create more billing hours for the firm. The outcome of my case was the best possibility. I am very grateful for Brian, and I recommmend him heartily.

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.
