If you need an Lawyer Brian B. Boal is the one

Yes this Lawyer is the right one. I had a state issue that I just couldn't handle my self. I spoke ahead to try to work with the State and they read between the lines and wanted me to admit to a crime. Brian got to get them to say they were wrong and get the issue addressed and I am still in business.... The rate was affordable and he didn't charge for every second of his time. For the piece of mind he even said I am not charging for this time "small talk". Made me feel good that his office has give and take. I feel he wants to make long lasting clients. He has also spoken with friends and family. What I really like about him is he has been on both sides of the law. I am a paralegal and some attorneys are hard to talk to. But Brian is easy and don't make you need to rush.

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.
