owi followed by 3 driving after suspensions

Brian went above and beyond for me. I was charged with an owi which he had dropped right away! After that I had a problem with my license being suspended due to said dui which he stuck with me and fought to get those dropped as well. Very trustworthy and down to earth. Very reasonable and I would ...recommend him to family and friends. Good guy this one.

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.
