Child custody

Brian helped me with a 2-year long and complicated child custody case that crossed state-lines. I could not have asked for better representation.

Posted by Erin | February 22, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

Efficient & savvy

In my 33 year corporate management and analytics consulting career, I've had to work with a lot of lawyers. Brian is the first who’s ever gotten out in front of me on deadlines. He quickly calibrated to my skill level and taught me relevant legal concepts, empowering me to bring my domain expertise t...o bear on a legal strategy that we formulated together. His collaborative approach is both efficient and effective, saving me money on the way to reaching better results. Who would have thought it could be fun to revise contracts?

Foreclosure fraud

Brian helped me with a fraudulent foreclosure. He is extremely competent and easy to work with. He is very thorough and explains the process in laymen's terms. My case ended successfully and I cant thank him enough.
