Personal injury

10/10 reccomend! Was very nice and super helpful throughout the entire process. He made my terrible unexpected injury as painless and easy to deal with as possible!

Made a difficult situation a positive experience

Brett really showed his expertise in handling my tricky medical malpractice suit. Getting me a positive result, against a local doctor and a closed hospital, really showed me that Brett and his law firm are on top of their games.

One Fabulous Lawyer

Brent is an amazing lawyer with incredible expertise and integrity! I hired him to handle an extremely important case for me, and he was simply fantastic! This was my first and only dealing with legal proceedings and he was very patient with me during the process! The case was settled in my favor... with the results I had hoped for! I would hire him again immediately if I had a need for legal counsel! Fitzsimmons Law Firm is the best of the best!

Medical malpractice lawyer | Feb 02

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Brent Wear's accomplishments in the courtroom are impressive standing alone. He has established himself as one of the preeminent trial lawyers in this region. However, Brent is also a genuinely good guy. He enjoys teaching younger trial lawyers how to identify and handle potentially "big" cases. For example, although I'd never met Brent, I called him about a potential client's medical malpractice claim. He spent a considerable amount of his own time explaining the potential pros and cons of taking on the case, and I was impressed by his knowledge of this complex area of the law. I would highly recommend Brent Wear to anyone."

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.
