Mr. Bratton was exceptional!

I had an exceptional experience working with Mr. Bratton. From the very first consultation, he was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely committed to helping me understand my options. Throughout the entire process, he kept me informed, answered every question promptly, and made sure I felt supported ...during a very stressful time. Their negotiation skills were impressive, and they fought hard to ensure I received a fair settlement. I never felt like just another case—they treated me with respect and compassion from start to finish. If you’re looking for a reliable, professional, and truly dedicated accident-injury lawyer, I highly recommend Mr. Bratton.

The best attorney/client experience!

Mr. Bratton is a veteran Accident Injury attorney with over 39 years of experience. I chose his representation for just that - I knew we were in good hands. His professionalism and dedication to his clients created an excellent experience. I would highly recommend his services.

Excellent Lawyer!

I was referred to The Bratton Firm in Fall 2020. Louis Bratton and his paralegal Andrea were by side every step of the way, explaining everything I needed to know about my case, until it finally wrapped up in July 2022. I am incredibly grateful for all their expertise and guidance!

Excellent Lawyer!

Louis and Andrea are awesome! They helped so much in my time of need and made the process so easy. All of my medical bills were covered and they sure got me out of a bind.

Excellent lawyer

An attorney friend recommended the Bratton firm after a ditching truck rear-ended my stopped car. Mr. Bratton clearly understands personal injury law and the effect of recent legislative changes on claims. Everyone at the firm was great to me. They kept me informed and were responsive to all my reque...sts. The firm compiled my medical records, filed a complaint, arranged and prepared me for a deposition, and arranged for a mediated settlement. I was very satisfied. It is an excellent firm.

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.
