also known as Brennan Aberle
Brennan is a creative problem solver who handles every kind of criminal case from speeding tickets and DWI to capital murder and criminal appeals. He knows that every case requires a unique approach to find the best way to protect his clients. Brennan knows that sometimes you win a case with a hammer and sometimes you need a softer approach.
He has tried over a hundred criminal bench trials and dozens of jury trials. He often focuses his practice on clients facing drug trafficking, embezzlement, theft, possession of firearm by a felon, and driving while impaired offenses.
Before private practice, he began his career as a Guilford County Assistant Public Defender in 2012, fighting for clients who often face both racial and socioeconomic barriers to equal access to justice. Before opening his own firm with Julie, Brennan worked at the law firm of Garrett, Walker, Aycoth, & Olson. When he isn’t at the office, Brennan spends time with his wife cooking New Orleans food, and trying (poorly) to play blues guitar with his Great Dane mix, Louis.

A Breath of Fresh Air: Top Class Value in His Work
We (my son and I) approached Mr. Aberle in the last minutes of a very difficult matter that unfortunately we felt was not handled well to my desire by the prior attorneys. It was a last ditch effort before we gave in. We had previously hired 2 (and consulted a handful more) previous attorneys and my ...
"Study after study has shown that there is a very high association between humor and intelligence. Being able to understand and create humor takes significant cognitive and emotional ability. Brennan is a person whose sense of humor is but one signal of his mental fitness and intellectual agility. On top of being incredibly smart and very funny, Brennan is also very kind and willing to help, no questions asked. All of these traits, and so many more, make Brennan a phenomenal attorney. I would hire him in a heart beat because I know he'd represent me exceedingly well, listen to my concerns, clearly convey my options, and help me reach my goals. For the same reason, I'll happily refer people to him for help. All the while, he's an asset to the Bar and a pleasure to work with. 100% excellence."
"I first meet Brennan while I was an intern assigned to him in the Public Defender's Office. Brennan is a dynamic and energetic attorney, and was endlessly patient while making sure both his clients and myself were always prepared for what would happen in court. He's not afraid to go to trial, even when it requires creative lawyering. On the flip side, if his client is risk adverse and would prefer Brennan to negotiate a plea, he does that just as effectively without allowing his own feelings to force a client into a trial they don't want to chance. I've learned a lot from Brennan as a supervising attorney and CLE presenter, and appreciate everything he gives back to the Greensboro community."
"Attorney Aberle goes above and beyond for his clients. I have every confidence in his skills in the courtroom and his reputation in our legal community. I endorse him in all areas relating to criminal defense work. In and out of the courtroom, attorney Aberle is a man of his word."
"I've had the privilege of working together with Brennan on several criminal defense cases during my career. I endorse Brennan because he possesses a rare combination of knowledge of the law along with an exceptional communication skill set that allows him to navigate through complex criminal issues and explain the issues to clients in a realistic and personable manner."
"I have witnessed Brennan zealously advocate for his clients in the courtroom, negotiate beneficial plea deals and communicate effectively with his clients so that they understand the criminal process, their rights and the outcome of their case. Highly recommend!"
"I went to law school with Brennan Aberle and practiced in Guilford County with him for approximately two years. I know from my time with him that he became a criminal defense attorney because he wants to defend those who cannot defend themselves. He is a passionate advocate for his clients and strives to get the best result possible for each one."
"Brennan is a fierce and passionate advocate. I would absolutely want him on my side if I was in trouble."
"Brennan is a rising star in trial lawyer. I’ve seen him in action in the courtroom. He fully commits to defending his clients. There is so much at stake for people when they need a lawyer, I believe people should know who the good lawyers are. Brennan certainly is one."
"I endorse Brennan. He cares about his clients. He cares about his work. He cares about the community. He has more jury trials than most lawyers I know. If you hire Brennan, you are in good hands. He will cover your case with a cloud of thoroughness, ethics, preparation, and skill."
"I have had the privilege of knowing Brennan for over a decade, and have rarely known another attorney to match his tenacity, creativity, and passion for the law. He is dedicated to his clients and works tirelessly to ensure they receive just, fair treatment and are provided the best possible defense. Brennan is an exceptional attorney and I am able to refer my clients that require a criminal defense attorney to him with confidence that they are in capable hands."
"I highly endorse this lawyer. Brennan is by far one of the most intelligent, creative, and passionate criminal defense attorneys I know. My practice is devoted to immigration law, but as immigration and criminal defense sometimes intersect, Brennan is definitely at the top of my list for referring my Triad-area clients. Brennan and his team provide expert legal guidance and the highest quality client service. He's an outstanding attorney."
"Brennan is a passionate defender of anyone charged with a crime. He is dedicated to constantly working to educate himself and others in the profession on the evolution of the law. Brennan has also tried more jury trials than attorneys with double his years of experience and his amazing track record speaks to his skill in the courtroom. He is one of the best!"
