Posted by K’Mar | April 19, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Expungement

Most Professional and Compassionate

Attorney Brenda Derouen you have given me a new life! For several years I have been stuck with a criminal record that has haunted me! Although the case was dismissed it still appeared on all back ground checks. I have been turned away by several employers because of it. At one point I even lost hope... in pursuing my dream career. Not only did you advise me of the expungement process but you handled it professionally to completion. It was a tough area to revisit and you showed so much compassion I felt at ease the whole way through. Thank you for clearing my record and giving me the confidence I needed to start fresh!

The Lawyer You Need On Your Side

Listen Attorney D is the truth! She went over and beyond for me on my case. She explained the legal process to me so that I was aware of everything that was going on and she was very responsive. She was professional at all times and was aggressive when needed. I recommend this attorney to anyone who ...wants quality legal representation and an attorney who cares

Posted by Tavia | November 11, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Helped settle divorce

Brenda handled my divorce case with grace. I am so grateful to have had her as my lawyer. When my uncontested divorce had a wrench thrown in it by the judge I needed professional help. An associate of mine told me about Brenda. I reached out to Brenda for a consult and she gladly took my call the sam...e day and gave me her legal advise. After the consult, I was impressed and asked her if she could represent me in my case and to my surprise she hopped right on board. She even signed onto my child support case, which she didn't have to do, but chose to do in order to help me get my divorce settled. She collaborated with the OAG and got it done. She didn't charge extra. She kept me informed throughout the case. My divorce was uncontested and I thought it would be simple. Some complications arose and Brenda helped me battle those complications. Thanks to Brenda, I am now divorced and it's all behind me now. Trust me, you won't go wrong with Brenda.

She Was Agressive & Compassionate

I hired Ms. D to defend me in a criminal case. It was my first time ever being in trouble and I’m so glad Ms. D was my attorney. She explained all my options and prepared me for the process. I knew exactly what to expect every time we went to court. She was very professional and cared about my case a...nd how it would affect my future. She fought aggressively and i am more than please with the outcome of my case. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Ms. D

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
