Excellent Counselor

Brian was very attentive to all of the issues and communicated relevant information very quickly. I was falsely accused and sent to prison and Brian acted nearly more like a family member than an attorney. He spoke w my family and kept them informed. Brian is extremely well connected and ultimatel...y my charges were dropped partially due to his diligence in following through w the prosecutor. I would say that Brian earned all of what I paid him and you cant ask for more than that! He also helped me get full custody of my son.

Very thorough and intense attorney!

Brian is a very knowledgeable, intense attorney. If there was something that I didn't understand, Brian went out of his way to explain it to me so that I could understand. He is very easy to talk to. When dealing with Brian, you know that he means business. I felt very confident in his ability to r...epresent me. While Brian is hardcore, he is also personable. By the end of my case, I felt that I could trust him as an attorney and as a person. The only criticism I would give Brian would be his ability to over analyze or over explain things to me. There were several times where Brian would pose situations to me that may or may not happen. I felt that some of those instances weren't necessary. Overall, Brian is a good attorney and I would recommend him to anyone, including friends and family.

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.
