Look no further for a criminal defense attorney.

I have never met a more gifted criminal defense attorney. Brett is not only the best at the job, but he’s also an amazing person that makes you feel at ease through the hardest time of your life-because he will deliver on the best outcome possible for you and your situation. You might even crack a sm...ile and laugh with him during the process!

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.
