the worst!

wouldn't return calls. Charged me an outrageous amount and did NOTHING. Cost me my house and half of everything I owned. Stay away!

Posted by anonymous | August 24, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Great Lawyer and got things taken care of in a hurry!

Bryan was able to assist me in getting full custody of my daughter and an emergency hearing the day after christmas. As a father it is hard to get custody of your child in Arkansas but Bryan can get the job done if it is at all possible for you to get custody. He has been very helpful in many other i...nstances where I needed quick legal advice and very reasonable with his cost compared to his competition in the area. If you are in a bind and need a quick & reliable lawyer Bryan is the guy you need to call.

worst divorce lawyer ever

Brian did my divorce and all the way threw it I had to call him over and over to find out anything. There was a joint custody agrement with the judge and Brian never wrote it up. At the end of it he told me I did not deserve what I got and he was going to charge me an extra 700 dollars after I had al...ready gave him the money we agreed on. There was also some stuff my x was doing like making plans with a guy to have me killed and when I toled Brian he just said nothing and did nothing.

Don't hire

Doesn't respond to phone calls. Took no action on my case. I fired him 5 days after I hired him and he filed saying he was my attorney after I fired him. Now he doesn't want to return the money I paid him and I had to hire another attorney to represent me. Stay away!

Criminal defense lawyer | Jun 04

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer for criminal defense. Bryan worked hard to get a client 6 years probation when he was looking at 15 years in prison. His litigation strategy resulted in a win for his client in the final analysis. I don't care if someone may have been disciplined. Bryan is a hell of a lawyer. Frank Falkner"

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2017.

Interim Suspension issued in AR, 2017

updated on 12/08/2017

Interim suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice during a disciplinary investigation. The suspension typically expires when the investigation is resolved.

Reprimand issued in AR, 2015

updated on 10/13/2015

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
