Posted by Adam | February 21, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Civil Rights

Patience is key when litigation is involved

Hands-down, the best civil rights attorney in all of New York State. He got me awarded $135,000 within two years of my case being brought before a court. Brett Klein is hands-down the best attorney in New York State when it comes to civil rights.

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.
