Thank You Mr. Sims

Mr. Sims is an excellent attorney. He is knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy. Not to mention his willingness to work hard to represent not only himself, but his client. He is readily available to assist you with any questions or concerns. He is forthright and very communicative. He represented me... in my case, in Galveston County Texas. And he was able to get my case dismissed. Thanks to Brandon, I am able to resume life and put behind me this unsettling time in my life. If you are in need of a defense attorney. Make sure you call Brandon Sims.

DURING THE YEAR LONG STATUS CONFERENCES, BRANDON ALWAYS KEPT ME INFORMED OF TALKS / PROGRESS AND BACK ROOM NEGOTIATIONS.PROGRESS WAS MADE , BUT NO EXCEPTABLE OFFER WAS MADE BY THE STATE.WE WERE SET TO GO TO TRIAL. WE HAD A PRETRIAL FIRST. BRANDON ALWAYS MAINTAINED MY INNOCENSE TO THE STATE. DURING THE PRETRIAL BRANDON SIMS BROUGHT UP THE WEAK EVIDENCE OF THE STATES CASE AND UNRELIABLE WITNESSES. THE STATE COULDN'T DISPUTE THE FACTS OF THE STATES CASE AND DISMISSED THE CASE. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO HIRE BRANDON SIMS TO REPRESENT YOU IN A TIME OF NEED , AS HE WILL DO EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER TO GET YOUR CASE LOWERED DOWN OR DISMISSED,IF TRAIL IS NEEDED ,THEN HE WILL BE THERE FOR A NOT GUILTY.

Brandon Sims Review

I could not be more appreciative and thrilled with Mr. Brandon Sims. Through the whole process, he constantly kept me informed on what the procedures would be and what to expect. He was always very helpful and knowledgeable about what to expect in each court proceeding. And most importantly, he deliv...ered in the end. I would highly recommend him not only for his great knowledge concerning how to handle my case, but as well for the professionalism of him and the law firm Tad Nelson. Thank you so much!

Outstanding Criminal Defense Attorney

He is a very knowledgeable attorney who was very comfortable with handling my case and in the court setting. I was charged with a DWI in Galveston County and hired the Tad Nelson team to handle my case. Brandon was the attorney that I had the most contact with and who appeared at most of my court set...tings. The case lasted nearly a year to collect all the information that was needed prior to the conclusion. At the end, I was able to get a reduced charge of Obstruction of Highway. I was very pleased with the result of the case. Overall, I have a very positive review regarding the way Brandon handled my case. He has outstanding communication, kept me informed regarding every small change in my case. The whole team especially Brandon was very responsive to my needs and would respond to any inquiries I had regarding my case in a timely fashion. I could call or email Brandon and he would have a reply to my question within the hour at the latest and within a few minutes in most cases. He seemed very knowledgeable regarding the cases he was handling. He knew every detail regarding my case and with his previous experience as a prosecutor, he seemed very familiar with all of the legal aspects of my case. I was never hesitant regarding his knowledge base and his confidence uplifted me to have complete faith in his abilities. I always had trust in him to do what was in my best interest and never take an easy way around the case. He lobbied very hard on my behalf and I believe this is the reason I was able to receive the outcome that I had hoped for and intended would happen. Overall, I was very pleased with Brandon and his colleagues and would not recommend anyone else as any attorney retrospectively.

Brandon Sims and the firm he works for helped us resolve a very important criminal matter. His personal attention to our case will never be forgotten. He obviously truly cared about myself and my family. He is very competent and worked aggressively to secure a win for me. I would recommend Brandon to... anyone in need of legal services
