This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Caring, Compassionate , Experienced Lawyer

Brian accommodated me on a last minute consultation and stayed after his business hours to go over every bit of details. He is very professional.

Well Done.

Brian was very professional and would follow-up on items in the timely manner. I personally wouldn't want to have any attorneys in my daily actions but if I would have to have one, I would pick Brian.

Highly Recommended

From the initial consultation to the signing of the consent order Brian was fantastic. He listened to my story, gave me multiple options on how we could proceed, and was always available to speak with me that same day when i needed him. What really stood out to to me the most was that Brian understoo...d my financial limits, remembered all the small details of my case even when I would forget myself, he could speak on my behalf because he knew how i would want to answer or respond, and he always confirmed all letters, pleadings, and game plans before moving forward.

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.
