Great Lawyer!!!

While discussing another person's case with attorney Brassfield, I expressed the overwhelming feeling I had dealing with my own accident. Attorney Brassfield listened carefully, asked questions and then informed me that I also had a case. The burden of insurmountable paper work was lifted from me i...mmediately. Attorney Brassfield is informative, knowledgeable, and proficient at discerning a case. Everything, including the professionalism of this firm, has exceeded my expectations.

Tireless Representation

David Brassfield is a consummate professional who works tirelessly for his clients. He is a skilled negotiator and I am so glad to have found him after being involved in a major auto accident. Ann Marie, part of his office staff, is wonderful. This is no cookie cutter firm. You are treated with r...espect and personal care.

Darlene, Thank you so much for letting me help you with your personal injury case. I do work very hard for all my clients and I always try to achieve the highest dollar settlement for each of them. As you know, I am an aggressive advocate of your rights. I'm very glad I was able to get an excellent result for you, and I greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing such a kind review about myself and our staff.

Excellent Attorney!

Attorney Brassfield took what to me seemed a hopeless situation and completely turned it around. I had been in a motorcycle accident and although I truly was not at fault I was given two tickets and all insurance benefits had been denied. It felt like such an injustice. Atty Brassfield truly liste...ned and fought for me. Through his knowledge of and experience in the law he was able to have both tickets dismissed. Then he quickly and aggressively fought for what I can only define as a miracle of a settlement. I would absolutely recommend this Attorney. I was completely impressed with the attention that he gave the case and how quickly he resolved everything. He truly went above and beyond and I can't thank him enough.

Aurelio, Thank you so much for the kind words. I did work very hard on your case, as I do for all my clients. I'm very pleased that I was able to convince the prosecutor to dismiss both of your moving traffic citations. In my opinion, under the law, you were not guilty of either violation. From the first time I met you, I had always believed in your version of the events, and felt both tickets were unjustified. I'm also glad I was able to convince the insurance company to change their "at fault" position. All though they initially denied your claims, I was able to convince them that their insured was, indeed, at fault. I wish you and your family the best of luck, and please call me if you should require any future legal needs. Dave Brassfield
