Extremely diligent and professional.

Brandon represented a family member in a felony drug case. Despite the overwhelming evidence against her, he was extremely diligent in negotiating with the prosecutor and secured a plea bargain that included probation and drug rehabilitation. We are very grateful for his help. I would highly reco...mmend him.

His defense resulted in true justice.

I went through quite an ordeal after being arrested for the felony charge of possession of a controlled substance which was not even mine. The driver I was sitting in the passenger seat was pulled and the police searched the car and found drugs which the driver did not own up to until the last minute.... I was still arrested. After being bonded out, I felt nothing but despair as I started looking for law firms to help me beat this case. The Sims Law Firm was the first one I called and as soon as I consulted with Brandon on the phone, he told me all the possible case scenarios and I felt a sense of hope. One of the first things he did after I hired him was request the police footage which would prove that the drugs were my friend's. After waiting many months to get the video, we finally eventually got it, the prosecutor watched it and dismissed the case. Brandon is an attorney who truly cares for all his clients like they are family. He is the protector of the innocent and I'd recommend him to anyone who is going through their own ordeal through the justice system's cruel ways.

Personalized Service, Excellent Skills and Going the Extra Mile

I hired Brandon Sims to assist my niece who was charged with possession of a controlled substance. Brandon went the extra mile and did a lot of research and investigation. He met with her in Jail and explained the options she had. She was arrested in another county and was able to get time served in ...that jail counted against her charge. Brandon spent one whole half day in court, negotiating with the District Attorney, as it appeared that the DA respected the information that was provided. He was back and forth with her and the DA until an agreement was reached. The end result was better than we had hoped for, as she was facing 6-24 months in a state jail facility, but received a 90 day sentence. I would highly recommend Brandon for any case in Ft. Bend County.

Amazing!

My 18 year old daughter was on probation for possesion of marijuana and was arrested again for a second possesion. Her probation was revoked and she was facing another case. After being bailed out on the second charge she completed 21 days in Re-hab. She had a court appointed attorney however, he wou...ldn't even bother to speak to us. We attend her court date where the attorney did NOTHING for her, we were told she was going to have to do a minimum 6 mos. in jail. I fired that attorney and went online to find an attorney that was going to fight for my daughter. She was clean and sober, had a job, moved to San Anonio with her sister and her husband and 5 kids so I was willing to help her fight this since she had turned her life around. I had found Brandon Sims online and made an appointment. My daughter and I met with him, he spent over 2 hours going step by step in detail. He also saw that she should be given a second chance and wanted to fight for her. He let us know what the plan of action was, we did our part and he did his, keeping us informed the entire time. We went to court about 3 weeks later....Brandon Sims went in front of the judge to plead her case, he was amazing! He was not only able to get her probation reinstated and moved to San Antonio , he aslo got the second charge dismissed! Thanks to his expertise my daughter is moving on with her future and will start college in the fall! If you want a attorney that is well educated, trust-worthy and is willing to fight... I highly recommend Mr. Brandon Sims!
