Lawyer Review

Very impressed with the entire staff! They all worked hard for a positive resolution to my case. Would definitely use and recommend the firm in the future.

Genuine and competent

I have worked with lawyers and law students for more than ten years. I must say Brian Wright and his staff are genuine and qualified. He and his staff are very competent, efficient, and courteous while following up in a timely manner. I went to Brian because I was frustrated with another local l...awyer who did not follow my written instructions in drawing up my “Will/Trust”. Brian listened to me and genuinely showed concern for the issues that had not been addressed. He revised my trust/will/estate to make sure that my wishes would be carried out. He also expeditiously and expertly handled a situation in which my son was in a very serious accident, thank God he was there for him. I highly recommend him to anyone.

Excellent attorney

Excellent and trustworthy attorney. Cares about how clients and looks out for their best interests. Provides a breath of fresh air to the DeKalb/ Sycamore area. I wish he practiced in other arms of the legal system.

Thank you for your review and kind words. I do handle other types of cases. My areas of practice are Bankruptcy, Criminal, Civil Litigation, DUI, All Traffic Matters, Real Estate and Estate Planning. In addition, I always enjoy the opportunity to meet with someone, and if there is ever a situation where I can not take a case, do not handle a type of case, or believe someone else would be more suitable to fit a person's needs, I will give appropriate referrals to other attorneys. I will always be honest and my goal is to provide excellent legal advice/service to the best of my abilities.
