Put simply, if you are in trouble, you want this guy! My case was very complicated and Mr. Shur was able to handle every aspect of it with skill and intelligence. His work far exceeded my expectations as he was able to greatly reduce my charges in what seemed like a hopeless situation. I am very thankful to have had Mr. Shur as my attorney. He is the very best at what he does.

I was denied a NJ Fire Arms ID Card. Mr. Shur pulled off what seemed to be an impossible win in this state. Brenden knew what had to be done and worked with an expert witness to get the job done. Very professional and very prompt answering questions and returning calls and emails.

I hired Brenden Shur from the John Zarych Law Office, and he immediately put me at ease about my situation. He was almost immediately, completely informed of the details of my case, and worked brilliantly to have it resolved. I will always be thankful to him for what he did for me.

Branden is just the best! The moment I sat down with him I knew he was the Attorney I would hire. Branden's attention to detail is spot on especially when reviewing discoveries.. If it weren't for him I would've definitely faced my Second DUI 100%. Thanks to Branden I was able to win the case. Once again I thank Branden for taking my case because of you I'm able to retain my quality of life along with my family.

I met Brenden for a consultation last week. In my professional life, I interface with attorneys frequently, so have a very good basis for comparison. I wish there were more like him. He was respectful, polite while being candid and most importantly, sincere and caring. I am happy he and his firm are part of of this community.

I was without a valid driver's license for 30 years. I have numerous driving while suspended, with outstanding court cases/fines/issues spanning 30 years. Brenden was able to prioritize, schedule court proceedings, and deal with 6+ NJ Municipal Courts so I could get my license restored by NJ MVC. Brenden accomplished all of this within three months without any jail time or excessive court fines. He is truly an exceptional attorney, sincere person, and a champion/advocate for his client.

I strongly recommend attorney Brenden T. Shur for his talent and experience. If I could give him 100 stars, I would! He is extremely passionate about his job, and will go above and beyond for his clients. Brenden returned phone calls and emails right away, and answered all questions honestly. He is very intelligent and has an abundance of knowledge in all aspects of the law. He has the ability to fight and WIN your case. Brenden was a true professional at all times. He is trustworthy and very down to earth. He inspired in me the confidence that he could successfully win my case. He did, and I could not thank him enough. There are a million lawyers out there, and I am sure many of them know how to win, but I don't think all attorneys have not only the legal capabilities, but are as genuine, compassionate and sincere as Brenden. He is not only an exceptional lawyer, he is an amazing person as well. From the day we met, you and your entire team at The Law Offices of John J. Zarych have been welcoming, accommodating, and supportive during this difficult time I was experiencing. I have the utmost respect for Brenden and the entire staff. If you want a thorough, diligent, and dedicated attorney, contact Brenden Shur!

John Zarych Office are exceptional at what they do. They provide a sense of security after you discuss your situation with them. I was about to enter the workforce with a felony under my record, but after several months of work, the felony had dropped. From steps A to Z, they provided the necessary guidance and communication to keep me updated. There is nothing negative I could say to the John Zarych Office and I appreciate everything they have done for me and my future.

I am in the military and was facing a DUI charge. This would have meant detrimental impacts on the civilian side, as well as possibly losing my career. Brenden and Mr. Zarych sat down with me during my first meeting to review my situation and also inquire what they could do to assist me in the proceedings for the military side. They made it clear that they would do everything in their power to help me in this process and were some of the few people that treated me like a person, rather than someone who broke the law. Brenden was always available to speak and if he wasn't he would get back to me in a promptly manner. He was very patient with my questions and concerns and took them all into consideration. He even went as far as to explain to my family all the findings in regards to my case and catch them up to speed even though he did not have to. He was able to prove that I was not guilty of a DUI in court, which although helped my situation on the military side, it did not necessarily mean I was not going to lose my career. I explained this to Brenden, and in an extremely quick period of time, he had written a statement breaking down the findings of the prosecution and why I was found not guilty in court. He did not have to do that, but he did. Brenden truly went out of his way to prove my innocence and allowed me to save my career and move forward in my civilian life.

I must say that the service that MR. Shur provided for me in my trail was beyond professional. From the beginning of the case he was very up front about every thing that could have happened and very honest with me. I couldn't have asked for a better legal defense lawyer. My case drug on for close to a year with multiple postponements, but it was worth it so Mr Shur could explain the facts and prove the prosecution wrong piece by piece. and that's exactly what he did. Thank you again Brendan

Relationship: Co-worker

Brenden and I worked together at a firm years ago. I had been working there for some time when he came aboard. We have both since moved on but have remained in touch. Brenden showed himself to be a fine lawyer immediately. He is aggressive with attention to detail and, most importantly, he genuinely cares about his clients, most of whom are facing very stressful circumstances. His goal is to achieve the best result possible and it shows. We are in the same practice area but I wholeheartedly endorse Brenden.
