Amazing

Andrew has represented me fir several cases. He has always gone above and beyond for me. He truly cares for his clients. He is honest and trustworthy. I highly reccomend him to anyone looking for compassionate lawyer by your side.

Find another attorney

I had my consultation with Andrew Brockway, got the price for my divorce and was happy! As soon as family court was settled I would turn in all my documents and get my divorce started. Except after my consultation with him, I could not get ahold of him again. Left multiple messages with his secreta...ry, for a month straight. Since he didn’t once return my calls I am VERY happy I didn’t drop my check off to pay him. (I didn’t have to until I dropped off the paperwork packet). But since he couldn’t call back to answer my questions, I guess losing thousands of dollars for my divorce isn’t a concern to him. I highly recommend hiring a different attorney, unless you don’t want/need to speak with him about anything. Horrible customer service and not sure how he even stays in business with this kind of service.

Ms. Heath, we met on April 3, 2018 and we had a free consultation. I informed you at the time of the meeting that in order to proceed, we would need the retainer fee and the completed paperwork. We did not receive either from you. I am sorry you feel the way you do and would like to speak to you about it.

Horrible attorney

I retained Andrew, for a Family Court matter. Two weeks later we had a court date. He showed up unprepared , And confused as to the matter we were there for. he had copys of all documents that the court had sent me for the court date. So this should not of been the case. He requested an adjournme...nt , to prepare a modification. Basically to get him off the hook for being unprepared. Before this next court date he asked me to set up a phone conference with him to discuss the case. First appointment was set and it was a no call from him on that day. I called his office , He wasn’t in the office, they could not tell me when he would be back. They Allowed me to set another date for this phone conference. And again on that date he was a no call and not in the office. So you can probably understand my frustration when he showed up to the next court date unprepared again. He had not prepared anything for the modification he asked for the adjournment for The money I paid him was a complete waste. I got zero legal advice, And zero legal representation from him. Him and his office are very unprofessional My advice to you is to find a different attorney or represent yourself

I Found My Lawyer !

Mr. Brockway is an excellent attorney; trustworthy, empathetic and assertive of my rights in the legal system, he secured a favorable result with his advocacy and negotiation skills that I thought was not possible. My thanks to Mr. Brockway and I strongly recommend his consultation.

  • 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.
