Brian is passionate about trial work, and spent over seven years doing mock trials before becoming a lawyer and an adjunct professor/trial coach for law students at the James E. Rogers College of Law. Brian co-teaches the top 8 oral advocates at the law school and prepares them to compete in the National Trial Competition, the nation's most prestigious trial competition. He has won numerous awards for his trial advocacy abilities, including the William T. Birmingham award for Outstanding Trial Advocacy (presented each year to the top trial advocate in the University of Arizona Law School's graduation class) and the Jenckes Cup (as part of a two-person team from U of A Law competing against two ASU Law students in a closing argument).
Brian now uses his trial advocacy skills to help people who have been injured or have been accused of crimes. Brian is a member of the Arizona Association for Justice and the Pima County Bar Association. He was honored by the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the Arizona Daily Star with a “Tucson’s 40 Under 40 Award,” which recognizes young leaders who are making an impact in the community with their professional and charitable work. Outside of law, Brian serves as a board member for Therapeutic Riding of Tucson (TROT).
Brian's extensive background in the Information Technology field led to his interest in the burgeoning field of computer and cell phone forensics, and he now serves as an expert in the field, assisting attorneys in computer crime and computer security issues. Brian teaches various topics regarding law and technology and digital forensics and evidence at the annual Arizona Public Defender Association conference, and to other attorneys seeking continuing legal education (CLEs).

Excellent
As a college student, discovering that there was a warrant out for my arrest was daunting to say the least. After consulting with multiple lawyers, I decided to hire Brian for my case. He clearly explained to me all the possible steps I could take for getting the charge taken off my record, including...

Great guy, Great results.
Had an accident with my bike and the insurance company refused to pay out of pocket medical expenses. The woman at the insurance company said they weren't liable. Brian investigated and confirmed they are indeed liable. After the amount of damages was increased significantly, Brian secured the tot...

Everything Done Right
Brian helped me with a minor civil matter that involved writing a lot of motions, and everything was well-argued, well-written, and obviously NOT some stock motion where he'd changed the name. He spent much more time on my case than I expected. He doesn't usually practice in the area of law that I ne...

Best attorney
Brian represented my husband and me in an usual ADA suit regarding our service dog, a case other lawyers were reluctant to tackle. Brian was the best---explaining each step, staying calm and focused and caring for us throughout the ordeal. Most importantly, he persisted and won the case. I can highly...
