The most intense lawyer I ever dealt with

Attorney Brian Cali went above and beyond his responsibilities to make sure issues were resolved in a very timely manner

Posted by Francine | December 18, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

First-Rate Attorney

I hired Attorney Brian Cali four (4) years ago for my Divorce action. It was a very stressful time for me in my life since my divorce was very bitter. I must say that I called Attorney Cali several times a week to guide and help me through the painful process. He always returned my calls whe...ther it was very early in the morning or late into the evening. I never had to worry because I would always hear back from him with answers to all of my questions. If it wasn’t for Attorney Cali, I would not have made it through the entire Divorce process. He is a great attorney and one that definitely earns the Title as a Super Lawyer.

The Best of the Best

After 25 years of marriage, the last thing I ever thought I would be doing is filing for divorce. But, my first inclination was to go for the best attorney out there. And I did. I was a total mess, and Brian knew it. At our first meeting, I explained that my then wife had left, and what had bei...ng going on in our lives up to that point. Brian knew exactly what was going on. He helped me see things that were right in front of my eyes, that for some reason I couldn’t see. Brian turned out to be an excellent choice. He guided me through the process, and I could tell that he truly sympathized with my plight. His entire staff was superb as well…particularly, Kurt and Michelle. All questions were answered, the proper documents filed in a timely manner, and they all looked out for my best interests. At the lowest point of my life, the bright side was that he and his staff truly made me feel like family, at a time when my family was falling apart. I can’t thank them all enough.

Pure Excellence

Brian and his team, are nothing short of excellent! He has been my attorney for the past 11years, and has guided me through my separation, domestics, divorce, and never swayed from doing the right thing in every situation, keeping my children and I first. He's available at anytime for questions and ...guidance in any situation. I'm so impressed and confident with every appearance we've had in court, that I have highly recommended him to friends and associates, with again, rave reviews and positive outcomes!! Thank you, Thank you!!!

Posted by Jessica | January 03, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Forever Grateful

I am a Mother of two beautiful, smart, talented,and incredibly well adjusted children. I am also someone who has suffered from addiction in the past. As a result I found myself in a contentious custody battle. I felt hopeless. Anyone who knows me knows that my children are paramount. I contacted Bri...an Cali and without any judgment, he immediately and graciously took my case. Brian placed myself and my case in the brilliant hands of his associate Kurt Lynon because of his extensive background and knowledge of Recovery. The process can be long and seem defeating but anytime I had a concern Kurt and Brian were always reassuring and incredibly supportive so I had the hope to keep going. The staff responded to all of my calls and continued to treat me with dignity. I have been sobers for years now and I even have more custody than I did before! We will never be able to thank Brian, Kurt, and his staff enough. I absolutely recommend this firm over and over again.

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.
