Excellence, Honarable and Integrity

Attorney Brett Pritchard is by far the best attorney I have ever had the pleasure to have known and and/or hired. I have been a paralegal for many years, worked with dozens of attorneys and have hired many over the years. I have never been more impressed with someone's work. Brett honestly cares abou...t people, his clients and doing the right thing. He stands up for the little guy being mistreated and the people of this county like no other ever has. Brett is very responsive and communicates information quickly. He was on top of my case and handled it more professionally, ethically and honestly than anyone else ever could have. I had gone through three other attorneys in the area and were disgusted at their work ethic. There is no other attorney I will ever hire now. No one can walk into battle for you, fight for you and win like Brett and he will do it withholding the highest standard of the law. Thank you Brett Pritchard. My son and I couldn't have gone through our battle without you in our corner.

Long Awaited Justice

What can I say about Brett H. Pritchard other than that he is a true ambassador of justice! There are lawyers & there are crooks who pretend to be lawyers. Brett however, is a brilliant attorney. Check this out. For the past 5 years I have been involved in a custody WAR with the miserably poor excuse... for a mother of my 10 year old twins. We lived in PA when it all first started. Ive had to fight with her at every single turn & corner just to be a father to our kids. She is the absolute epitamy of alienation & neglect. She STOLE my kids from me & moved to Texas behind my back. From PA, I hired a dirt bag crook of a lawyer(who shall remain nameless), who had a standard visitation order drawn up on my behalf. Something I could have done myself through family court! Shortly thereafter I moved to Texas chasing after my twins. Since that time I presented this piece of crap lawyer with a plethora of evidence to show how she was nothing but a detriment to these children...& he did NOTHING about it in the 5 years for which I had him retained. Nothing about how each child failed a grade in elementary school while under her primary conservatorship...or how she blatantly neglected their hygiene, appearance & academics...or how she was married to a registered sexual offender...or how she would repeatedly refuse to let me see the kids! I grew sick & tired of his uselessness & fired him for ineffective counsel. I then retained Bretts services. Mr Pritchard won me full custody of my twins with me still owing him part of what we agreed upon. More impressively, he did in less than 2 months what my former crook of a lawyer wouldn't do in 5 YEARS. Brett Pritchard & his staff ultimately helped save the lives of my children & for that I am eternally grateful & thankful to Mr Pritchard & his staff.

Brett Pritchard was the best attorney decision I made

I was going through a rough time with my ex-husband and how wife, I was told about Brett Pritchard through one of my work collogues who used to work for CPS, she told me to get Brett Pritchard because he is a really good lawyer and is the type of lawyer that will not take anyone’s crap, he is really ...good at what he does, and that is why CPS and other Lawyers are scared to have to go against him in court because he does everything he can to really defend his clients, so I took her advice went for a consultation with Brett and he was a tremendous help and answered all my questions and concerns. Brett Pritchard has been my attorney since December 2014. I have gone through 2 different lawyers before hiring Brett Pritchard as my Attorney, I wish I would have known about Mr. Pritchard before I have hired and wasted my money on those other lawyers. I first used Brett when my ex-husband refused to return my son during the Christmas Break, knowing good and well that he was not supposed to have him. Brett was quick on trying to get my ex served and getting my court set up, but took longer than we expected because of privacy act. There were a few times I thought he was not doing much to help me, once we were in the court room he was expedient, effective, quick, and stern. Brett did a tremendous job on representing me and was on point; he did such a wonderful job that I won my case and got what I wanted for the best interest of my son. My ex-husband got what he deserved not only from my attorney but also the judge they did not take it to kindly to what he had done and how much pain and suffering he had caused me. As this was my first experience with Brett and his team to represent me. I am very pleased that I can still call Brett to consult him on various matters regarding my case and upcoming case. In fact, I have to retain Mr. Pritchard as my attorney again for services that are soon to come my way with my ex-husband and his wife. Brett Pritchard’s retainer fees are fair, but what do you expect when you want to hire the best to represent you, to get the best you have to pay for the best, and with that being said I have no concerns that I will lose my next case with Brett representing me. Thank you very much Brett for all your help and what is also to come our way!!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Simply put, if CPS is coming down the block, call Brett. He is an absolute master of the CPS courtroom. I have sent him clients on many occasions because I know Brett will fight like hell for them. Many times I have watched him make a complete fool out of CPS workers who don't know their own SOP manual, let alone follow it. Strongly recommended."
