Brian Lum is the best!

Brian has always been very informative and knowledgeable about anything that I’ve asked. He help me prepare my will and all the things related to the will. He also helped with the potential claim from a renter and has been an excellent advisor. I highly recommend Brian for any and all Legal advice ...Mary Johnson

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.
