She Does it Right!

Brenda was my divorce attorney. She was very knowledgeable and smart in court. She did not fight dirty, which I appreciated, even though opposing attorney was. My son has a severe disability, Brenda did what she had to do to make sure my children and I had a fighting chance for what we deserved, b...ut she did it the right way. She stuck with facts and made sure I was well prepared for what to expect in court, as well as the unknown of what would happen, regardless of the law or what typically happens. We were well prepared going into court and trial was lengthy. I was on the stand for longer than 4 hours and Brenda had me prepared for what opposing attorney would put me through. The judge we had seemed to appreciate how Brenda handled the case, sticking with the facts. I did get what we went to trial for, and then some. I would recommend Brenda and would turn to her in any situation I may need her for in the future. I was amazed at how smart she was and how much she knew. I did not always like when she told me the possibilities, however, I had to know what to expect. I had a delicate case and she was perfect for it.

Excellent Aggressive Attorney

Brenda was our 2nd attorney for our custody case, as our first did nothing for us. She took the case and was up to speed in time for our first hearing. She really does care about you and makes sure she knows every detail about your case and is always prepared. She was very responsive anytime we em...ailed or called her, and got back to us right away. We had a very favorable outcome on our case and she continues to help us when little things come up as they do in custody cases. I would highly recommend Brenda as a first rate attorney.

A True Professional

Brenda represented me in the most difficult period of my life. No parent should have to face a custody battle, but if they are unfortunate enough to be forced to, Brenda would be the attorney to have in your corner. She was sensitive to the issues that we were facing as a family and she aggressivel...y defended not only me as a father but also my children. Brenda went above and beyond what I expected and was always there for any questions that I had about the legal process and the custody hearing itself. During this emotional time in my life she was sensitive to my feelings as a father and recognized that I have rights too, even in today's society where the role of the father is not deemed as important as that of the mother. She was a true Fathers Rights advocate and I am very impressed with the services she provided. Brenda won primary placement of my children for me and she left no stone unturned. Brenda became more than an attorney to me, my wife and children, she is now a member of our family and we are forever grateful to her.

Exceptional Lawyer

We've been in and out of court over 10 years and she has never given up, she has always given me great advice and has kept me informed even on the smallest details. She is caring, responsive and I am glad she was on my side!
