Excellent Attorney - Thank You Brian

Brian helped me greatly at a confusing and difficult time. He responded quickly and confidently to my initial situation, providing reassurance of a good outcome. He inspired confidence from the beginning and allowed me to relax a bit knowing that I was in good hands. He then worked intelligently a...nd effectively to defuse the case. After that, he stayed with the case for almost a year, completing the necessary legal steps to finalize the successful outcomes permanently. He has an excellent grasp of systems and people, and how they work formally and informally. He is tenacious and diligent in the details of the process. I'm grateful and fortunate to have had Brian represent me.

ABOVE & BEYOND PROFESSIONALISM!

Above & beyond professionalism! First time I was facing possible criminal/weapons charges. I hadn’t a clue of what to do. At first, I met with a different lawyer with high ratings and his recommendation was to wait until charges were filed to see what exactly I was up against. The moment I met w...ith Mr. Corrigan, he explained the opposite; of how important it was to take action now before matters got worse. That if we acted fast, he would do everything possible to address the issues at hand before anything was filed with the DA. He didn’t have to tell me twice. Who wants to wait for filed charges? Not me and absolutely not Mr. Corrigan. He took immediate action and absolutely no charges were filed. My weapon was returned and my CHL remains active with no suspension. Mr. Corrigan from the beginning went above to explain to me what exactly was going to happen and his professionalism took care of everything. I highly recommend Brian Corrigan.

Professional, Courteous and Knowledgeable

If you are in search of a Criminal Attorney to represent you look no further than Brain Corrigan! A year ago I was arrested in Irving for a moving violation. Scared, uncertain of my rights and not knowing what to do next I spent several days looking for an attorney to represent me. I was blessed a...nd very fortunate to stumble upon the site for Brian Corrigan. I called Brian, made introductions and had the opportunity to review my case. He was empathetic to my situation but more importantly to me was the open dialog we shared with regards to my situation. At the inception, Brian didn’t guarantee that he could get me acquitted. He only assured me that he would do everything in his power to see that I received the best legal representation. And that’s exactly what I received… Brian reviewed the facts in my case and provided me ongoing updates and support. He shared with me facts of the incident and articulately outlined the “rights” I didn't even knew that I had. Understanding that every case is different and there are no certainties, I made the decision to appeal. I knew confidently that Brian would do his due diligence making sure he would do everything in his power to get me acquitted and to me that’s all you can really as from any attorney. Brian Corrigan comes with the highest recommendation from me!

Proud of the work that I did on your case. I believed you were not guilty from the beginning. Glad that I convinced a jury of it, too!
