Posted by Hannah | March 31, 2016 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

This is the attorney for you!

Brian G. Thompson is an excellent attorney. He has so much experience and really has a firm grasp on what to expect in court. He knows the judges and is very well respected by them; he knows who you should face in court and who to avoid. Brian is easy to talk to. He can answer any question you may ha...ve and he makes it easy to understand the whole process. He answers emails very promptly. I was nervous so I sent him some questions, and instead he suggested we speak over the phone to communicate easier. He really put me at ease. Before I talked to him, I had no clue what to expect in court, and I wasn't sure what I should do to prepare. I felt much better when we got off of the phone. I was facing 13 charges - all related to a DUI and hit and run. Thanks to him I was found not guilty of the DUI, and all but one charge was nolle prossed. In the end I received only one year unsupervised probation, the best possible outcome for my case!

The BEST criminal lawyer money can buy, BY FAR !!

Ive never met a lawyer who is as down to earth, HONEST, real, sincere, caring, and most of all KICK A** at what he does. I can honestly say, without hesitation, that Mr.Thompson is the best criminal lawyer Baltimore City/County has, probably the whole state! From the beginning he made me feel at ease..., telling me we have a good shot and he would do everything in his power to help me. He started looking into my case before I even retained him, and kept me updated throughout the months leading to the court date. After talking with the prosecutor, a few days before the court, he called me and told me what to expect, which took all the anxiety away that goes with an impending court date. The following day at court, he delivered his promise, and I received a stet docket for my case. Brian is very well liked and respected not only by his clients and colleagues, but also the judges and prosecutors in Baltimore. His fees are very reasonable, especially for the work and care he gives his clients, and the best part was that he allowed me to make monthly payments. In the future, if anybody would ever ask for a recommendation of a lawyer, Mr.Brian Thompson would be the top and ONLY referral I would give; and, Ive had my share of lawyers in the past. Mr.Thompson has saved my life in so many different ways, Im not sure if Ill ever be able to express my full gratitude to him. I am a college student and a conviction would have stopped my career before it began. But, with the help of Brian Thompson, I have learned from my mistakes, grown from them and going to continue on a straight and narrow path. Thank you so much Mr. Brian Thompson!!! You rock !!

Great Lawyer, Great Results

I hired Mr.Thompson for a firearms charge. Maryland law does not favor the second amendment at all and I was facing 11 criminal charges ranging from Illegal Possession of a Regulated Firearm to Assault Weapons Roster Violation. Because I have a misdemeanor record I was legally prohibited from ownin...g firearms and didn't even realize it. Brian was able to have my charges reduced to one count of Illegal Possession of a Firearm and I received probation. He was also able to get my wifes charges dropped completely. I was very fearful that I was going to be thrown in jail and lose my career, my home and my family but Brian reassured me throughout the entire process. I would hire Mr. Thompson again in a second! Thank you Brian!

Awesome!

I used Mr. Thompson for a serious traffic matter in Baltimore County. I walk in with him and the judge immediately stops everything else that was going on to greet Mr. Thompson. Mr. Thompson then proceeds to greet the prosecutor as if he had known then for years. About 10 minutes later I was no longe...r facing any charges. Mr. Thompson told me I had a good case before going to court, but it sure looked like he got me off because he owned the joint! Then, the judge called Mr. Thompson to the bench and talked to him for like 5 minutes. It looked like two old war buddies swapping stories... Half of the people in the courtroom looked at me like they wanted his card, while the other half looked at me like they were pissed they didn't know to hire him for their case. Mr. Thompson was the real deal!

The Best Criminal Defense Lawyer in Baltimore!

Mr. Thompson handled a 1st degree burgulary case at the North Avenue District Court. I don't know how the Baltimore City Police ended up charging me with burgulary of my own home, but they did. Brian smashed this charge at my 1st hearing. He is a great,great attorney and I hear he isn't a bad golfer ...either! Use this guy whenever you need him!
