Posted by Robin | March 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Brett's compassion outside the courtroom and expertise inside the courtroom are superb!

Brett Pritchard is a bright, intelligent, talented and dedicated attorney. In our sensitive CPS case involving a Motion For Modification regarding child custody, Mr. Pritchard completely focused on pursuing the best outcome for the child while providing the highest level of service. His compass...ion outside the courtroom and his skills and expertise inside the courtroom were superb. I highly recommend him!

Advice and a little peace of mind

I was referred to Mr. Pritchard regarding CPS legal advice /council. After taking the time to speak to me over the phone as well as in person, he was very kind and understanding of the situation at hand, while we did not hire him at the time, we most definitely will if it's needed.

Family Law

Brett Pritchard is the fourth lawyer I have had to hire in 2015 in what has been a long drawn out family law dispute that has dragged out since 2008. I needed an aggressive lawyer that would not give up and fail my children and me and bow down to my ex husband's manipulations and redirection and be ...quick witted and on the spot and focused when I'm a mess or stressed in court. He delivered above and beyond!

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.

Family lawyer | Jan 14

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."
