This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Call him today!

I was very stressed when I got a reckless driving ticket. I met with few attorneys before him, but the day I met with Mr. Brinkman, I felt the case is solved and yes after a few weeks, it is. Mr Frank mentality is similar to the prosecutor/ judge mentality. He knows what to say and what not to say in... contrary to the other attorneys I met regarding the same issue, he is different.

He is awesome

Mr. Brinkman has handled multiple cases for me from my divorce, to power of attorney to allow me to sign things for school, doctor etc for my step son and most recently helped me with legal issues with my ex husbands house after he passed away. He is awesome! Very professional and works diligently to... solve any issues. I recommend him for anything you need done legally.

What could have been an ugly cry

My head was still spinning from being “ let go” From my long time employer. Frank really put me at ease and I left without that knot in my stomach or throat that had been there when I arrived. He’s not just knowledgeable , he’s personable.

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.
