BRIAN JOSEPH MARKOVITZ, ESQ.

When I found myself facing a possible corrupt situation at work I was not sure what to do. After trying several law firms, Brain Markowitz was mentioned & I called him. He listened to my story, he asked me pertinent questions & he agreed to help. That was the beginning of years of hard work. B...rian guided me through the long legal process with intelligence, humor & kindness. He always returned my calls promptly - day or night. He always made sure that I understood every part of the process. He graciously got to know a bit about me personally, noted my sense of humor & then usually ended every call with a laugh which always put me at ease. Brian was optimistic when I was ready to give up. He was patient no matter how many questions I had. He spoke with my wife about the potential troubles ahead & that helped our conversations at home about the project. I would recommend Brian to anyone that needs brilliant legal help. He understands how to successfully communicate about legal details. He thorougly prepared me for deposition & trial. Years after our settlement when we needed legal help again we called Brian for a referral & he helped us with that. My wife & I consider Brian to be our friend. We are happy to follow his career successes. We are eternally grateful to Brian & consider ourselves fortunate to know him. He restored our faith in the goodness of humanity.

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.
