If your looking for an attorney who actually cares about you and your freedom then look no further. Brian put forth such a heart felt argument that the judge not only reduced my sentence but commented in open court that he believed Brian respected me and genuinely cared about my case.

Helped put away someone that stole money from our family business. Very competent and thorough! Helped us out in a VERY bad situation.
"Brian's experience, creativity and acumen (which is a fancy way of saying his brainpower) are second to none. He goes to bat for his people, and woe be it to any opponent who tries to harm Brian's clients."
"I have known Brian for several years, and I have opposed him in federal court on numerous occasions when he was an Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of Georiga. Brian has an amazing knowledge of federal criminal jurisprudence; he is always more than prepared (in and out of court); and has truly mastered that art of cross-examination. He is an asset to the federal criminal defense bar, and I look forward to working with him in the near future. I would highly recommend Brian without hesitation."
"Brian is an outstanding lawyer. He works hard, knows the law, and, most importantly, cares about the individuals he represents."
"I endorse this lawyer's work based upon working on several cases together. Brian is an excellent advocate and always well-prepared."
