This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Do yourself a favor and hire Brian!

I highly recommend Brian and can’t thank him enough for his support, guidance, and counsel! Brian was not only extremely knowledgeable but he was thoughtful, patient and considerate of my unique situation. Brian kept me informed in all aspects of my case and was always responsive when I had questions... outside of meetings. During my hearing he was on point, making the opposing counsel (whom I will note came from a well known/"fancy" law firm charging double the price that Brian charges) look like they were still in law school while making me feel relaxed and confident. His legal representation restored my faith in the justice system. If you are seeking legal help, please do yourself a favor and call Brian! You won't regret it!

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

Brian handled my divorce professionally and thoroughly. He was very quick to answer any questions and is excellent at providing feedback for any items which he thought questionable or contestable. I highly recommend Brian for his overall quality of work.

Best attorney in town

Brian was simply amazing! He did everything in his power to make me feel confident about our case, even when times were tough. He was very patient, genuine, and kind. He kept me informed throughout the whole process and eliminated all gray areas. I couldn’t thank him enough! He treats his clients lik...e family. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney! 10/10

Worked Hard on an Unusual Case

Brian helped us navigate some very tricky waters in getting my ex-wife to relinquish her rights to our son, and then have my current wife adopt him. The process was very smooth, and everything went well! I would definitely recommend Brian Faucett if you need a custody lawyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
