5 stars are not enough

How do you say service and representation? Contact Andrea Brodie and find out. From the first point of contact, you will know you found a trusted advisor who will exceed your expectations. Her knowledge and experience are top notch but in addition, I was impressed by her great judgement and "bedside... manner" with clients who need guidance in very difficult personal circumstances. A+ all the way - highly recommend!

My Divorce Attorney Andrea Brodie

Andrea was incredibly helping during the difficult process of divorcing my wife. Her legal expertise, along with some of her personal experiences and perspective as a child of divorced parents was really important to me especially during times when I was not doing well. She also wasn't afraid to te...ll me which battles I needed to fight which ones to be more flexible on. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who is going through this painful and difficult process.

Amazing

Andrea is the pinnacle of professionalism. Not only have I worked with her personally, but I have referred a number of clients to her from my financial practice that have all been both happy and successful working with her. Extremely talented, knowledgable and efficient. Sensitive to your needs and r...eally knows how to get results.

Highly Recommended!

Andrea is an extremely talented attorney who conducts herself with the highest level of professionalism. She is well respected by her peers and handled my case with confidence and integrity along with genuine concern for my best interest, She always responded right away to my inquiries to alleviate... any concerns that I had at the time. The fee was very reasonable considering her level of experience and the significant effort required to settle my divorce.

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.
