Excellent Attorney !

Bruce is a terrific attorney and a great guy. He represented my case with true professionalism. He will stand firm when he needs to, but he understands the value of fairness and compromise, as well. It was my pleasure to have Bruce represent my legal needs. There should be a 6th star category for... him.

Great Attorney with Superb Service

Bruce handled our case with professionalism and was far and above the best attorney I have worked with as a business owner.

Real estate contract and Insuarance matter

I had the occasion to consult with Bruce regarding a real estate ownership issue as it related to a minority stockholder, and also an insurance question. I felt that Bruce was thorough in his research and knowledge of those subject matters, and gave advice consistent with what was in my best interest.... I feel Bruce can be aggressive when he needs to be, but understands the compromise necessary in daily life. Bruce is an accomplished litigator, and was referred by another lawyer who felt Bruce was more qualified in the litigation area.

Outstanding!

Bruce helped us with a matter a few years ago which he not only went above and beyond in his research, but in his dealings with a cantankerous and at times, irrational person suing us. Bruce was always calm, grounded in knowledge of the law, and confident. We came out of the settlement not just on ...the up side, but further on the up side than any of us expected. I had known Bruce personally for years (that is how I can check the "trustworthy" box) but working with him professionally was an equal pleasure. I strongly recommend Bruce if his specialties align with your needs.

Successful Outcome on Fraud Case

Bruce provided us with legal work throughout a lengthy process involving a fraudulent mortgage broker and builder partnership. He was able to secure a fraud judgment and then was able to ensure that claim survived an attempt to dismiss it through bankruptcy proceedings. I would highly recommend Bru...ce to anyone seeking quality legal representation in real estate matters.
