Brian P. Rush's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have known Brian since 1972. I went to high school with him. I went to law school with him. I find him to be a great friend and someone whose acquaintance I value. I practice law in the geographic area as Brian does. As a litigator, I have not litigated with him directly, but am aware of his reputation. He is diligent, hardworking, creative and persistent. He pays attention to detail. I would highly recommend him as an attorney for superb representation."
"Brian is a great aggressive attorney. Everyone says they do personal injury but he actually a skilled trial attorney that insurance companies respect and fear."
