Excellent Attorney with Great Service

I've retained Brian for several things; sale of a business, sale of a home, purchase of a new home, investment in a new entity and just random legal advice. He is very accommodating and knowledgeable in his field of work (business and real estate). Brian is also very responsive, unlike many other att...orneys I've retained. He responds to emails off hours, although the one thing I didn't have was his cell number, which I always had for other attorneys, but that's a good thing for him! My biggest case was the sale of my business. It was very complex and different than the typical sale of a business. It went from a stock purchase sale to an asset sale with many side agreements and changes. It was a like a growing baby that kept changing and when you think you mastered the plan, it changed again! Brian did a great job making sure I was covered on all ends and wouldn't get screwed over. What I really appreciated about Brian, and I know everyone else will, is that he does not send itemized bills that say .30/hour spent on emails which bears a charge of $88.50. Those attorneys are not the ones I have on speed dial. And Brian was even generous enough to do the closing of the purchase of my home free of charge because of all the business I gave him. He knows how to show his clients appreciation, which is also rare, and he shows it where it counts...in their checkbook. I don't need little gifts with their logos, we all prefer money, and he knows that! In conclusion, I highly recommend using Brian. I know he will be the attorney I call for my next business or real estate transaction or even just random questions. I actually have him on speed dial!
