Brett Michael Schwartz

During this time of the year, I want to pause and say - thanks to Brett Schwartz and staff for their outstanding legal services. We had a difficult case this year but your determination and focus on details made a difference. In a heart beat, we would recommend you to anyone... anywhere.. On beha...lf of our family - Thank you. You are truly the attorney of the year!!

During the month of December 2014 my husband got arrested and he needed a criminal lawyer to defend him with his felony case. I went online and did some research and came across the law offices of Hager & Schwartz. I read the reviews and most of them were five stars and the outcome of the cases were ...mostly dismissed. When I saw that I immediately told my husband that this law office can help you fight your case and we made a decision to hire Brett Schwartz. When we visited the office it was very welcoming and professional. The Secretary was very nice and helpful and assists us the best way possible. Furthermore that's when we met Brett and told him about the charges and his word was thAt this case is a peace of cake and he can get the charges dropped and he did. The case lasted for at least 8 months. During those months it was very stressful for me and my husband but through it all God sent Brett to do his job and got my husband into a program even though a first the prosecutors wanted jail time. But we prevailed and I am so very thankful to Brett with his professionalism, honesty, and be straight forward from the beginning. I am truly greatful for Brett and his Secretary Thuy work.

Hi, my name is Rodrigue, In the beginning of December 2014, I got myself into some serious trouble with the law, I was looking at a maximum of ten years behind bars, but I do know a GOD who knows Mr Brett. and GOD directed me to Mr Brett, honestly I thought my life was done for the fact that I am no...t a us citizens, and three years before this I was ordered to be deported back to my country by in immigration judge because I didn't have proper document to stay in the U.S. and the prosecutor knew about my deportation status I was really panicking. To make a long story short Mr Brett accepted to represent me. Money was not an issue Mr Brett work out affordable monthly payment for me. Now that Mr Brett is representing me my hopes was to keep me out of jail maybe get probation or something But Mr Brett knows what best he said to me jail or probation will cause me to get deported. So Mr Brett said he's going to fight to get me a diversion program and he did. I can go on and on saying how great attorney Mr Brett is but how about you find out for yourself. I'm giving Mr Brett five star is because that's the most I can give, because of Mr Brett and his wonderful staff I have a second chance to fix my immigration status And for all your help Mr Brett, my family and I would like thank you in our native language, Merci beaucoup.

I ​thoroughly recommend ​Brett Schwartz ​as a defense attorney​. He worked tirelessly and relentlessly to get my case dropped even before it went to trial. He succeeded, although the odds were heavily stacked against us. Thanks to ​our overcrowded​ justice system, the entire ordeal took two months, ​...and ​was the most stressful experience of my life, I was in constant panic and anxiety. Schwartz and his partner John Hager helped me through the entire ordeal, even ​affording me the opportunity to speak to them after hours ​and any time I needed them. They also waded through a tremendous amount of evidence I provided that showed my innocence, and used it to get a meeting with the prosecutor that eventually ended with the charges being thrown out. Here’s my story: I was married to a particularly vindictive and manipulative woman who has threatened to lie to the police and have me arrested on domestic violence charges for over three years. ​I made the mistake of not taking her seriously and ​finally, after a particularly nasty fight in June, she made good on her threats and called the police while I stood there and begged her not to. I was arrested, although my ex-wife lunged at me in front of the police, spent over 24 hours in a jail, and endured the horror that is ​the​ criminal justice system. Afterwards, I came out and hired Hager and Schwartz to handle my case. I provided them with messages in which my wife attempted to extort money from me, recordings of her hitting and yelling at me, and other things that demonstrated her lack of credibility. Armed with this evidence, Schwartz approached the prosecutor, secured a meeting early in the process, and successfully convinced her to drop the charges. I think it is pretty common knowledge these days that when a man is accused of domestic violence by a woman, his guilt is presumed and the system often has little interest in considering his side of the story. I am confident that without Schwartz fighting for me, the prosecutors would not have listened to me. He got them to listen while assuring me that i​I ​would see justice. I am happy to have this ordeal behind me, and I am happy to ​highly ​recommend Hager and Schwartz to anyone who is falsely convicted of a crime and feels like they have the odds stacked against them.
