Posted by Edgar | June 28, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Very honest and good experience

First, Brian did something I never expected a divorce attorney to do.. I was on the fence about the divorce and set up an appointment to hear options. He actually suggested to try I save my marriage. I took his advice and unfortunately found myself back at his office some months later. Brian was hone...st throughout the whole process without the sugar coating. Which was much appreciated. I also liked that he charges his attorney rate for his work, and has a cheaper rate for the work that is done by paralegal, clerical work. I have recommended Brian and his law firm to several people within the last couple years.

Mr. Reidy is a honest hard working attorney who fights for his clinet's rights.

I can’t thanks Brian Reidy enough for helping me work through this ordeal. Brian's experience and his expertise in representing me, saved me both time and money, not to mention the mental and physical strain that one goes through when dealing with the court system. All I can say is Brian is honest a...nd genuine and fights hard for his clients. I was fortunate to have found an attorney with such integrity!

OUTSTANDING LAWYER

I highly recommend Brian Reidy as an attorney and as an advocate . I was very fortunate to have Brian handle my very difficult divorce. I was married for over 30years when my now exhusband walked away from the marriage telling me topack my bags & move in with my mother. It took two years and three ...months to resolve, or should I say dissolve, my very difficult marriage but thanks to Brian and his perseverance Iam divorced with a very fair divorce settlement. Brian fought for me & my rights evry inch of the way. He worked very hard to get this case resolved in the best possible wayfor me. Brian is very proffessional and knowledgeable and has a very conforting disposition. He always responded to my calls, questions and concerns very quickly. I cannot thank Brian enough for being my advocate through this very difficult time in my life. Brian once told me " I have your back". He definitely lived up to his words and then some!

Terrible Attorney!!

This guy is the worst I have ever seen,he did nothing for me. In my divorce case I thought he was fighting for me,little did I know he was making sure she was gonna get what she wants. Talks the talk but can not walk it. Found a better lawyer that after two court dates I was finally getting the servi...ce that is needed to get what your entitled to. His favorite phrase was I do not recall the conversation. I would not let him litigate on a lemonade stand.

Replied last December 05, 2014

Based upon the comments, I am not sure that this actually was a client of mine. However, I can say that I tell all of my clients that I am an attorney that tells your what you need to hear and not just what you want to hear. Although I will fight for my clients, I will not cross any ethical boundaries. Divorce is a personal process and your attorney must fit your personality. If this truly was a former client, then I am sorry that you feel the way that you do but I am happy that you have moved forward. Finally, I have never seen a lawyer on a lemonade stand, so I do not know how to respond to the "litigate on a lemonade stand" comment.
