The day that I met my attorney was a day I will never forget. My parents hired him to help me with two charges while I was on felony probation. At this point in my life I was lost, broken, addicted to drugs, and I had absolutely no one. The only person I had was him!! I was on a probation hold and unfortunately I was not able at the time to leave the jail. Beau Brock came to the back of the courthouse where they were holding inmates for court. We spoke for a second and he said this to me, "if you just listen to me, do everything that I say, and I gurante you that you will get through this and have a normal life." At the time I didn't know what to do or think. Here is this man, a stranger, telling me a drug addict that I could have a normal life. I was so aggravated at first because a normal life to me sounded like something that i was not able to poses. The time moved forward and I developed a personal understanding for everything that I needed to do. The time came for me to be released from jail, however, court appearances were still a must for the next couple of years. I continued to stay on the right track. I was no longer a addict. The agreements Beau Brock made to the judge for me helped me do exactly what he said he would do. He helped me recover. He helped me restore my faith in a society that I now was able to be a part of, Every court date things got better. It was because of the support from this complete stranger who now was a dear friend. Beau Brock changed my life. He gave me hope. He made me realize that mistakes can be fixed correctly by obeying the law. Our journey together is getting very close to the end. I am a reformed and recovered addict. I am a law abiding citizen that has a family, love, and support. The broken lost soul that I was can hold my head high now. I could have never done any of these things if it wasn't for Beau Brock and his team. If you want honesty, loyal, and a dedicated lawyer, you will be making a big mistake by not choosing him. I thank God for my new friend and attorney everyday. I am blessed beyond measure because Beau Brock believed in me when I didn't believe in my self. He fulfilled his promise and still to this day I have a great life!!

Hired attorneyCan't say enough good things about Beau
Posted by anonymous
Thu Nov 06 2014
Beau managed to get my DUI dismissed. I've had another lawyer for a DUI prior (Texas) and I can tell you some differences between the two:
1) Beau is very responsive. My other lawyer would always take a day or two to call me back. Every time I wanted to reach Beau he was either on the phone with me or called me back quickly.
2) Beau took the time to explain to me in detail all parts of the process so I felt comfortable going into court and exactly what was going to be taking place.
3) This should probably be first because it's most important (in my opinion.) Beau has a great relationship with the prosecutors. He treats everyone fairly, kindly, and with respect and you can tell the prosecutors (at least in my case) were familiar and friendly. I can't tell you how far that goes when you're looking to get a plea! My other lawyer tried to outsmart the prosecutors and generally speak down to them... Beau's method of treating them with respect and working together to find a solution seems to go a lot farther.
All these things lead back to one conclusion which I put in the title. As a client who found him off a Google search - he comes with my highest of recommendations. I feel I really lucked out picking Beau to represent me.
Best of the best!

I was charged with theft. Beau listened, gathered the facts, and armed with his intelligence and kindness, he was tenacious in handling all aspects of my case. He was successful in getting the charge dropped. If you need a hard working, justice driven, God loving, smart attorney, you can't go wrong with Beau! Thankful for him!! Highly recommend.

I hired Beau as my sons criminal attorney. He was very forthright and honest with us in what we were facing but he was also very compassionate. He kept us informed with every twist and turn concerning his case. If we ever had questions or just needed to talk things over, he was always available for us and when he wasn't, he would let me know by a text or a quick call to remind me our case was important but he would call back when he could. Basically- he makes you feel like your case is his one and only and you matter. You don't feel left in the dark. He is bold in his actions and that makes him great in the courtroom. He knows the law- and will explain everything along the way. It was a pleasure working with Beau. I felt he went above and beyond for our family. And considering what my son was facing, it was by Beau's knowledge, determination, and experience that "won" my sons case. There is no doubt I would hire Beau again if I ever need a top notch attorney.

Beau Brock Rocks!
Looking for an awesomely competent, person-centered, and results-oriented attorney for your legal defense needs? Mr. Beau Brock is your man!
Beau jumped to my defense during the very darkest hours of my life as I faced possible arrest on a sexual misconduct allegation. He was such a blessing to me during the whole process – relating to me like a close and trusted friend who just happens to also be an amazing attorney as well! He and his paralegal Eileen responded quickly and aggressively - like a dynamic duo!
I learned about Beau through a colleague. When I looked him up on his website, read his professional blub, and saw his kind, smiling face there, I knew he was the defense attorney for me. As evident by his website, Beau is very personable, family-oriented and a dedicated Christian. He genuinely cares. Over the first hours of working on my case, we shared our love of our families, our friends, and our faith, which helped to distract me from the horror of a possible arrest – which would have literally ruined my life. And I was comforted that Beau always had a plan of action, which he shared with me each step of the way.
From the start, Beau was very accessible and highly responsive. He shared his cell phone with me - even before we had our first face-to-face meeting! Throughout the process, he always responded to my calls/ texts promptly and cordially. He even took time to meet with me over the weekend (after the LSU game was over, of course!)
Beau demonstrated a respectful and effective working relationship with law enforcement, which was critical in my case. He promptly called the detective and kept him from “jumping the gun” in making an arrest, giving the time needed for the allegation to be fully investigated for the facts – aggressively defending my innocence.
And Beau’s fee schedule was very reasonable. I was able to pay a fair retainer fee, rather than being charged for this and that, by the hour, by the call, by the letter, etc., as I understand some attorneys do. This greatly helped me to budget and pay for my legal defense expenses. Plus, he let me know exactly how much would be needed each step of the way, in the event that I did get arrested and had to go to trial – which never happened thanks to Beau’s amazing work - Alleluia!
Beau was truly a God-send to me. A 5-star rating is just not enough to fully express his awesomeness and the depth of my gratitude!
God Bless You, Beau! And Eileen too!

In addition to being a family friend, Beau handled a case for my family. He was straightforward and explained everything that was happening until we had no more questions. He is very patient and empathic with his clients, but at the same time firm and diligent. Beau is very experienced and talented. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone I know.

Beau Brock was hired to assist with my son’s father criminal case and from beginning to end he placed me at ease by being a man of his word and doing his best. I can’t forget to mention his paralegal Eileen every time in her presence she greeted me with a smile and even when I called she knew the case off hand while providing me with information before I would even ask. This site only allow me to rate 1 through 5 but in my book Beau deserves a 10!!! If you’re seeking high quality hire Beau Brock!

When you or a loved one are in trouble and need an attorney that will listen to you, understand your problems, and help navigate you through the rough times, Beau is an excellent choice. He is not only a highly accomplished trial attorney, he is one of the few attorneys that truly cares about helping their clients. I have seen Beau work with so many families of those addicted to and arrested for drugs. He works tirelessly to resolve the criminal issues but also works with the families to help the client address the underlying addiction to hopefully avoid future problems. Once you've met Beau, you'll be friends for life and he'll always have your back.

The best endorsement by an attorney of another attorney is whether you would hire them if you needed to. I would hire Beau Brock to defend me if I ever needed a criminal defense attorney. He's be my first choice. He is one of the best.

I've tried a couple of juries in high profile cases along side Beau and am impressed with his natural ability to communicate and explain legal concepts to juries in simple terms. He comes to trial very prepared and has all of his cross examinations, voir dire and arguments crafted consistent with the theme of his defense. I am always looking forward to the next case.
