Excellent Representation

We have used Brian several times over the past 5 years for Felony and Misdemeanor offenses. Brian has always been honest with us about the likely outcome and the likely outcome has been equal to or "better than" we had hoped for. Highly Recommend! Brian just handled two (2) more Criminal Cases for u...s, and as usual, the results were better than we anticipated 12-5-23.

Excellent lawyer!

Communication was excellent and he handled everything professionally. He was able to get me the outcome I wanted and by doing so kept his word on what he could do. Highly recommend Brian if you’re looking for an over qualified attorney who is outstanding in his profession!

Mr. Dimmer aggressively approach the legal issues our family faced. His realistic view of the situation allowed us to make decisions to strategically weigh what to do in order to have the best outcome based on the consequences our family member faced. His knowledge of criminal law afforded us a lev...el of comfort as difficult decisions were made, factors that could help with the case, and a variety of other things to consider. Although, some conversations were matter of fact, Brian was always professional, open to our questions, and provided an honest take on what to expect. Without his litigation experience, strategic view of the case, and how the law truly applied to the charges, things could have been far worst. We are very thankful for the services that Mr. Dimmer provided!

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.
