Down but not out!

First off I want to Thank Brian Perry for not giving up! First off I got myself in a predicament I thought in a million years I would find my self in charges that for most of us would be bad but even more so because of my job and title and goverment security clearances made where there is no ...wiggle room. When I met Brian was honest with me truthful and did not sugarcoat it. But he said he would do everything that he could do and let me tell you he made good and saved my career and I am so happy to tell everyone this!!!! Thanks again Mr Perry

An Intuitive Advocate

I write this note with sincere gratitude and thanks for your much-needed expertise and assistance when I found myself in an unfortunate situation. Your prompt actions enabled me to resume my trip to see my family, and for that, I cannot thank you enough. Your level of professionalism and your gui...dance when I had a critical need enabled me to have a voice at a time when my perspective had been taken from me. Having a voice when one's credibility has been compromised is essential to maintaining the rights we all have as respected individuals. I admire the work you do, as I am sure your colleagues do as well. If ever I can share my impressively positive experience with your office partners, know that I would not hesitate to do so.

DUI representation - 2018

I never thought I would need of an attorney for this reason but NEVER say NEVER! I could not possibly have found a better attorney to handle my situation in PA. Brian Perry was beyond perfect in the manner in which he communicated with me during every step of this uncomfortable time. He listened to m...y concerns and delivered BIG TIME. He is THE BEST PA attorney you'll find and I'm not alone in this opinion. Look at his record... It speaks for itself. HIRE BRIAN if you need help in PA. Thank you Brian Perry for making this hard situation turn out in such a favorable way.

Homicide Acquittal

Brian was excellent, He saved my sons life! He was charged with first degree murder and with Brian's hard work and commitment to the case we received a justifiable self defense verdict from a jury of NOT his peers. Brian found a way to balance answering our families million and one nervous question...s and continued to remain focused on the case (Without getting frustrated). Brian researched every option to resolve the case prior to trial but the DA refused to see this case as anything other than first degree murder. His real talent comes in the court room where he seemed most comfortable, he was head and shoulders above the DA. We can't thank him enough. HE SAVED MY SON'S LIFE!!! Brian's PSW&Z Team is incredible and I can't forget his investigator BERNIE!!

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.
