Brett Ladd: the most amazing lawyer

My wife and i had spilt up i was givin temp custody in magisrate court. my wife was mad went to the womens avocate center for help she made up a hole story how i had beat her up. which in fact had never happened. she got a tpo and took my daughter from me. so at this point i had to find a lawyer. i f...eel God intoduced us together cause of how we met (brett and i) because i was on felony probation i was facing jail time for what my wife was accusing she was trying to become a citizen through demestic violence. and trying to get alomony..... well at this point Brett looked over the info and simply smiled and told me that this was going to be simple cause all her dates were wrong. later at court he got her to addmit that she had lied tpo dropped i was no longer facing any jail time and he made her look dumb for lieing to recieve a free lawyer. we got split custody, but brett didnt wanna fight her then he said he knew alll the tricks he made it look like it was all over made her sign a bunch of rules and if she broke them she would be arrested. he told me lets let her hang her self ...... cause next time we go to civil court she will have no lawyer well need less to say he was right not even a week later she is already in sevear violation arrestable. he knew she was going to mess up. so im about to get full custody he stays in touch everyday by facebook. he is nolonger just my lawyer but has become one of my closes most trust worthy friends. i know i cabask him any question and get the right answe. then on top of that he showed me things with a computer by satalight so we can prove she is in violation like circling the house to see if she has a man sleeping with her while the kids are with her the most major violation. i wanna thank you brett for everything u have helped my family with u are definetly a blessing From GOD. i thank u for everything u have done for my daughter and i. ive had other lawyers before but none have ever amounted to BRETT LADD..... i recomend him to any person any case he will be the only lawyer i will ever pay again.....for criminal or civil case

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.
