Excellent attorney

I received an eviction notice and being a senior citizen and extremely scared I hired a lawyer who gave my landlord ammunition, I fired him I found Moira Brennan through a friend. She has done two things for me, one was to calm me down, second was to take on the landlord full force. The opposing a...ttorney thought they were going to walk over me. First court date they sent the most junior attorney to represent the landlord and Moira ate his lunch. Next court date a senior partner showed up and Moira stood shoulder to shoulder with him and held her own. If you want a young fiery lawyer to represent you look no further than Ms Brennan.

Best NYC Attorney for Small businesses

I am immigrant and small business owner. The Department of Consumer Affairs sent me a notice revoking my business license. Moira got an order that allowed me to keep operating my business while the courts worked out whether the DCA unfairly revoked my business license. Without Moira’s help, I would n...ot have been able to continue the fight in the courts to save my business. Eventually the Court gave back my business license and cancelled all the penalties. I highly recommend Ms. Brennan to any small business owner in New York City facing litigation by the city agencies.

Excellent Civil Litigator

Moira provided excellent legal advice on a number of civil litigation cases for me. She fully grasps issues and has the ability to create a successful legal strategy. I have complete confidence in her legal abilities. She stands apart from others as she has a driving dedication to obtain the very be...st results for her clients. very happy I went with Moira.

  • 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.
