Brilliant attorney

Brittany is a great attorney and an exceptional litigant. Responsive, insightful and effective, Brittany was able to nail my case focusing on the fundamental aspects of it. During litigation, Brittany carefully laid out my case and tore down the other side's arguments in her cross examination. Britt...any fought for me fiercely and I thank her for that. The ruling was in my favor but even if it hadn't been, I would have been as pleased as I am with her performance. Brittany never gave me false expectations, I always knew where I was standing in this case and what to expect.

She's the Best and I'd trust her with my life.

I lost my job at a large broker dealer as a Financial Advisor after earning a promotion, and I can only speculate publicly as to the reason. However, I called and spoke with Vincent briefly (or not so briefly, I was fairly upset), and Brittany Weiner became my lawyer. I was between a rock and a hard ...place because my spouse is a wounded veteran, and my stepson also lives with us full-time, with all the pressure being on me to provide. Unfortunately, it's difficult to even sell insurance with a mark on your U5, false or not, so I was thankful for the assistance with my issue. A FINRA panel expunged my record. My public record has now been corrected, and I am getting my life back. Ms. Weiner was very patient with me as well, given that I lived in Dubai and Shanghai during the year-long process, and was often on a different time zone, had difficulty accessing my email accounts due to government bans on communication methods, and was often buried in consulting work as I completed my MBA. My hearing was held on the telephone, and I was not forced to travel back and forth during my work as well, which saved my life. Given that the way I found the firm was to google law firms that have won against said large broker dealer, I really threw up a prayer and won this time, and I am very thankful for Ms. Weiner and Mr. Christensen for taking up my case. I will always call them first if I have a problem, as will my friends.

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.
