Relentless Defense. Proven Results.

He’s tough, ruthless, and 100% in your corner. I was staring down serious prison time, and Brock took over the courtroom—nailed jury selection, crafted a testimony strategy that took the wind out of the prosecutor’s cross, and controlled every witness to tear apart their story. He’s blunt, brut...ally honest, and exactly the kind of attorney you want when everything is at stake. As far as I know, he’s never lost to that prosecutor 5-0 or their office 16-0 now respectfully at trial. If losing isn’t an option, he’s the one you hire.

A Pit bull DUI defense attorney!

We hired Brock to defend my son for a DUI and the results were absolutely amazing! In the end, he made sure that my son walked away with no DUI on his record! I can say that being charged with a DUI is overwhelming, stressful and confusing because it also has the potential to ruin your life. When w...e hired Brock it turns out that we hired a Pit bull of a defense attorney! Brock is fearless and his experience, extensive training and certifications in the field sobriety testing make him a formidable opponent in and out of the courtroom! Brock also meticulously broke down all the legalities of my son’s case, carefully explaining it in layman’s terms so that we understood exactly what we were up against. Though he was confident, Brock was never short or rude. It didn’t matter how many times we asked the same question or called him wanting reassurance, Brock was always very understanding and took all of our concerns seriously. Throughout the pendency of my son’s case, no matter how excited or nervous we were he still remained calm and level headed! This guy is as cool as a cucumber under pressure and that is so reassuring when you feel like you are dealing with such a turbulent time in your life! We would give him 10 out of 5 stars! We recommend Brock to everyone!

DUI defense

Couldn't have had a better experience. Brock's willingness to fight on your behalf and his knowledge of how to fight improper and malicious procedures is unprecedented. He was almost excited and angry because I had an officer who did numerous things incorrectly and Brock found them all. Along with... being a true professional, he is also a great listener and treats you as he would if he was helping a friend. Great communication as well. Highly recommend!

Best Lawyer Ever

I was charged with 3 felonies and had never been in any kind of trouble in my life. Brock held my hand the entire way. He was always confident and reassuring. I believe he was the best thing that could of happened to me. I owe him everything.

Avvo Rating

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.
