Diligent and informational

I was involved in a nasty motorcycle accident a couple months ago. I needed legal help to guide me through this new event in my life. I hired Brett Eckstein and he was nothing but Professional and quick with responses to my questions and concerns highly recommended hiring him for legal guidance and q...uestions.

More than a 5 Star Attorney!

If you’re reading this, it may be because you or a loved one needs an attorney and I’d like to share a little of my own experience. After sustaining injuries in a fall, it didn’t take long to realize that navigating an injury claim process on my own wouldn’t be an easy task and I needed an expert to ...help guide me. My first appointment was meeting with Brett Eckstein at Cannon & Dunphy, and it became the only appointment I would need. Within minutes it was clear that I found the right person in Brett, at the right law firm of Cannon & Dunphy. From the moment we first met until the close of my case I felt a sense of comfort knowing I was represented by a truly outstanding attorney. But most importantly, Brett is one of the finest human-beings I have ever met. He never treated me like “just another client” and I always felt like I had a loyal friend guiding me through the process. His attentiveness, kindness and compassion went beyond all my expectations! In the end, it was his expertise and persistence negotiating cases like mine that brought it to a fair, equitable conclusion. Choosing Brett to represent me was hands down one of the best decisions I have ever made! I am beyond grateful for him and his paralegal Athena for all their efforts on my behalf.

Great Experience

I had a great experience with Cannon & Dunphy, and my lawyer, Brett Eckstein, in particular. Brett is a personable guy, stayed on top of my case, and obtained a great result for me. I highly recommend Brett, and Cannon & Dunphy S.C.

FANTASTIC

We hired Brett to represent us in a personal injury case and were extremely satisfied. He took the time to listen to our concerns and always had our best interests in mind. Throughout the process he was very responsive to questions that needed answers and helped guide us through the many facets of... the case. We would highly recommend Brett as an attorney, as well as the Cannon and Dunphy firm.

Extremely Greatful

After my husband died, I called a number of other law firms looking for help. All of them said they could not take my case because it was not a typical case. Brett Eckstein sat down with me, listened to my story, and said he could help. He started an investigation right away and was able to confirm... what actually happened. Brett was tough, thorough, sincere, respectful of me and my feelings, and dedicated to doing the very best job. After a lengthy process, he helped me successfully navigate the legal system. I cannot recommend Brett Eckstein enough.

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.
