In excellent hands

I recently bought a home and Brian was my attorney for the transaction. He was organized, efficient, and attentive; email responses were usually same day, and questions were answered simply and completely. The sellers and their representatives were somewhat disorganized and not nearly as prepared as ...they should have been for the closing; I never doubted Brian's counsel nor that my interests were his top priority. He guided me through that day, and everything resolved quietly in the end. I cannot recommend him enough.

Would Highly Recommend

I hired Brian as my closing attorney when I sold my home and bought a new home. Brian was extremely responsive and knowledgeable during the entire process. There were multiple issues that came out during the deal that were out of the norm (through no fault of Brian’s) and Brian did an excellent job... explaining the options and finding solutions. I was constantly impressed with him and he got both deals closed despite all of the bumps in the road. I would recommend him to anyone I know.

Excellent and Efficient

I recently hired Brian to help me with my estate planning. He was extremely thorough and provided the care and professionalism that not many attorneys possess. He brought up questions and concerns that my prior estate attorney had not. I would gladly recommend Brian.

Attorney

Brian is the man! A lot of these "terms" when buying or selling a house i was not familiar with and Brian was able to explain everything to me. He was always on top of things and i never had too worry. I 100% recommend Brian and would not want to go thru this process with anyone but him.

Amazing

Brian has been nothing but wonderful to work with. He's extremely knowledgeable and professional. He went above and beyond to help us close when we thought there was going to be a hold up on the sellers side. Thank you Brian!
