    Brian is who I tell my friends and family to call when they need a personal injury or criminal defense attorney. He is smart, no nonsense and get the job done every time.

    Brian Brophy is a consummate professional. He is intelligent, experienced, and very hard-working. Brian is respected by his peers, and he achieves excellent results for his clients. I have referred potential clients to Brian and, without exception, I have heard back from those people that they were extremely satisfied with his representation. I would give Brian an unqualified endorsement.
