Personal Injury Attorney

Today I learned that Brien had been successful in settling my personal injury lawsuit. My husband did all the work to choose Brien, out of dozens of well qualified attorneys he had researched. Having interacted with Brien for over two years now, I cannot think of one thing that he said or did tha...t did not make complete sense to me. He was thorough, thoughtful, communicative, fair and in every way a top notch attorney. What stood out the most to me was his unwavering honesty. I would give him an A+ and would recommend him without reservation. If I ever have need of an attorney again, I would not hesitate to go back to Brien. He gives the legal profession the approbation that it deserves.

Experienced, well respected and gets the job done!

I hired the right guy. This case could have jeopardized my career. Mr. Roche provided me with expertise knowledge throughout the entire process. Without his guidance, I would have felt lost in the process and would not have received the judicial outcome that I did. He was able to meet with me the fol...lowing day after I contacted him, within a week, and we hit the ground running. He was able to calm my fears and kept me organized throughout the entire process to get everything taken care of in a timely manner. Having a knowledgeable attorney with a calming demeanor navigate you through this process is very important and high recommend Mr. Roche to represent you! Thanks again, Brien!

Outstanding Lawyer

I have know Brien Roche since 1992. I worked for his firm as a legal secretary at that time. I went on to work for other lawyers and in other fields as well. When my husband and I decided to split I called Brien because my work experience with him in had shown me how diligent he was in making sure... that his clients were well represented. He has an amazing legal mind, pays attention to details and all angles that may occur for strategy. His fees are very low and the representation is superb. I am thankful and grateful that I have had him in my corner. My divorce went smoothly and at very minimal cost to myself and my ex husband. We both own businesses and the divorce could have become a financial nightmare if fueled by a lawyer looking to line his own pockets. His skill set and his get it done and keep the fighting down approach were in our best interests were key in a potentially emotional and financially explosive situation. His level head helped resolve the matter in a manner that left our credit, finances and the stability of our 3 children intact. He is hands down the best kept secret in the Northern Virginia legal field. I would use him for any legal issue. Hire him! :-)

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Lacked transparency and integrity

I am writing to document my concern regarding the consultation I received through the lawyer referral service. I paid for a guaranteed 30-minute consultation. However, the attorney asked only two brief questions and then declined the matter without explanation, legal insight, or even general guida...nce. The call ended almost immediately, and the substance of the consultation did not reflect the time or professional engagement that was represented as part of the service. I fully understand that attorneys may decline representation. My concern is not the decision itself, but the lack of meaningful consultation, absence of professional courtesy in explaining the basis for the decision, and failure to provide even minimal directional input that would justify the structure and cost of the referral appointment. A referral consultation implies a good-faith review and a professional exchange, even if representation is not offered. That did not occur here. I believe this fell below reasonable expectations for a paid legal consultation and does not reflect well on the referral program.
