Thank you !

I am so thankful for Brian Emerson . I had the pleasure of having Mr . EMERSON has my attorney. He went above and beyond all my exceptions .He kept me well informed of the status of my cases and really showed me I wasn't just another case to him. And helped me get the charges dismissed . I can pr...oudly call him a friend . Thank you, Brian for all your work !

Creative, professional and thorough

I had a minor traffic infraction that would have caused a major setback but Brian was able to ease my stress by making me his priority case, he had a lot of cases but that's just Brian being professional. He gave me assurance that we would beat the infraction with the creative/brilliant evidence he ...was able to compile and the trust I have in Brian is priceless. The court ended up dismissing my case because the traffic officer didn't show, but I'm confident we would have won that case anyways. Thank you so much Brian!

great lawyers of the west

Congratulations, Brian, for your new adventure as a partner. I am sure you will bring to this partnership the qualities I attributed to you when I used your services- honesty, integrity, competence, and compassion. Good luck to you and Mr. Zale in your new practice. Brian, your reputation proceed...s you and has been excellent, always. It was my privilege to have used your services, and would recommend you in a second.

Mike/ CEO

I have had the opportunity to work with Brian several times over the past 10 years on civil matters. Although his primary focus is on criminal law, he took the time to help my company to satisfactorily resolve some thorny issues. Brian is efficient, listens well to the problem before suggesting a cou...rse of action, professional and does what he says that he is going to do. My highest recommendation.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
