Highly recommend Brian Skidmore's expertise in law
After dealing with 8 other incompetent attorney's, I trusted Brian Skidmore with getting a complex foreclosure case dismissed. He was able to accomplish in 2 weeks, what my previous attorney was unable to do in 9 months. He did not talk down to me, as other's did. He explained everything very wel...

"I co-counseled a hotly contested Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case in Akron, Ohio with Atty. Brian Skidmore , representing a municipal utility landlord against big law firms from Columbus, Cleveland, Ohio and NYC, representing a debtor-tenant and creditors committee. We were in Bankruptcy Court every week for approximately 2 years. I saw him discredit and shred on cross-examination a Columbia educated and Wall Street experienced financial and business adviser at trial. This cross-examination grilling led to the distressed adviser walking off the witness stand during a recess declaring to our opposing debtor's counsel "you better start protecting me or I'm getting my own counsel !" Atty. Skidmore was skilled and effective in utilizing local forensic accountants and business planners to contest the debtor's disclosure statements and proposed Chapter 11 Plan. Big time performance in complex commercial, real estate and bankruptcy case!"
