Top Notch Lawyer

My wife was in car accident a few months back and was left with a lot of stress, questions, and uncertainty. We contacted a few law firms before she finally decided to have Brian Breite represent her. Brian and his team were very prompt and professional. The first time we met Brian he took the time t...o answer all our questions and made sure we felt comfortable with having him as our attorney. If you’re looking for a top notch attorney. I would HIGHLY recommend Brian. He took amazing care of my wife and his very dedicated at what he does.

Make the call

My father was picked up by a van that's designated to transport seniors to and from their residence to the Senior Activity Center he goes to daily. When my siblings and I drive my father, we have to assist him with his seatbelt - we pull it out for him and make sure he's locked in before we drive off.... The driver of the van on this particular day didn't assist my father with his seatbelt. My dad tried to belt himself in and believed he did. Unfortunately, on this given day, the driver had to slam on the brakes to avoid getting into an accident and my father, who was sitting in the front seat, plunged forward so hard his whole body hit the front dash of the car (his upper body, his arms, his ribs were all bruised up) and his face and head hit the windshield. He had to be admitted to the hospital. He couldn't go home after he was released from the hospital because he needed rehab so he was transferred to a nursing home. My father's condition deteriorated and he died a few months later. I was referred to Brian by a dear friend who served as a juror in one of Brian's cases. My friend was a lawyer many years back and also worked in the DA's office so whenever I have any legal queries, I turn to him. I trust his opinions and his referrals are gold. I had a long meeting with Brian and Mark and he took the case. Brian and Mark worked to obtain all the necessary documents and statements for everyone involved and it took years. The case became challenging because my father was elderly and as is with most elderly people, had pre-existing health problems that the defendant argued caused my father's death. Brian and Mark worked persistently. They were great about explaining the process of the case- my siblings and I have never gone through this situation and we have never sued anyone before. They both returned phone calls promptly, were patient about answering questions and they scheduled all the necessary meetings needed to get the case moving. Despite the odds against us, Brian and Mark won the case in our behalf. My siblings and I are grateful for everything Brian, Mark and their whole team have done for us. Despite what seems to be insurmountable odds, they actually achieved a successful and positive outcome. I mentioned that my friend's referrals are gold and I can now personally say with certainty, that my friend was spot-on.

Amazing Personal Injury Lawyer

I was represented by Brian Breiter and team after being hit while walking at a crosswalk and suffering a traumatic brain injury. Within 6-7 months, Brian settled my case for an amount greater than I could have possibly hoped for. He did a phenomenal job. At the time of the accident, my family conv...inced me to get a lawyer just in case my medical bills mounted (which they did). I was apprehensive at first; I'm not a litigious person and have never been involved in any sort of lawsuit. But I knew that I was not at fault and that my injuries were serious and would likely be long-term. The process of choosing an attorney was incredibly stressful. I didn't have any friends or family in the area to recommend a personal injury lawyer so I had to rely on sites like Yelp. We all know that sites like these can be immensely valuable, but also that you need to read reviews with some skepticism. Brian had so many rave reviews that I briefly worried that some could be fake. But then I thought, if the guys has this many good reviews he would obviously get a ton of business from other Yelpers. If the quality of his representation was worse than expected, you would expect a bunch of bad 1 star reviews. Brian has virtually 0 negative reviews. He really is that good. Before deciding upon an attorney, I called 6-8 firms and spoke with them over the phone about my situation. For those of you in need of personal injury representation, I recommend that you do this as well. I was able to learn a lot about the process and got a variety of opinions about how I should proceed. Most of them, including Brian, thought that my case would likely take years to resolve (which makes it all the more impressive that Brian got the case resolved so quickly). The only negative to calling so many lawyers is that they all became very interested in taking my case. Personally injury law can be a very lucrative and competitive market and I knew I had a good case, so this wasn't too surprising. In the end, I decided to meet with three lawyers in person. The final choice was between Brian and a larger, downtown firm that is also well-regarded on Yelp. Both seemed quite capable, but I decided to go with Brian because I was more confident that I would be working with him personally throughout the case. Brian assured me that if the case went to trial or arbitration, it would be him representing me. In the larger firm, I suspected that I might have had to deal more with other members of the firm. It also didn't hurt that Brian's fees were also much more reasonable. Throughout the case, Brian was extremely easy to get in touch with. I could email him, call his office, or even call his personal cell phone. Brian or Mark (another lawyer at the firm) kept me up to date with everything and let me know if I needed to do anything. They made sure that I was receiving the proper medical care and offered to front several of my medical payments that health insurance would not cover. At the end of the case, we needed to repay my health insurance for what it had paid towards my treatment. Brian, who fittingly teaches a class in negotiation, was able to greatly reduce what we needed to pay. When my settlement check was ready, Brian offered to leave his family's Passover celebration on a Saturday to meet with me and get me the check so I wouldn't have to wait any longer. I really wish this accident never happened, but I can't imagine how much worse off I'd be if I didn't have a great lawyer like Brian at my side.

Thank you Brian!!

Everyone has a passion. Mine was playing collegiate water polo, and after a high speed motor accident it was almost taken away from me. Thankfully, I met Brian Breiter and his staff, who completely handled the legal side for me while I focused on returning to my athletic career. Brian drove out to my... house in Agoura on a Friday evening to meet with my family and see first hand how bad my accident was. I will never forget the way he looked me in the eyes and promised that he would justly and efficiently handle the legal side of my situation. Being injured is never easy, but the people around you, particularly the ones that genuinely care about your wellbeing, make it better. Brian Breiter is one of those people. He helped me in my darkest hour, and made a real difference in my life. If you or a family member are injured, I highly recommend the Law Offices of Brian Breiter. Let them handle the legal side so that you can focus on rest and recovery. They are personal, prompt, and always ready to answer questions and help you out. Everyone has a passion. Brian Breiter's is helping others.

Thanks Brian!

I usually do not post comments on the internet, but feel that people who use the internet to find good lawyers or reviews need to know that Brian is the real deal and that I had good experience with him. He was able to help get my life in order and acquire a satisfactory settlement after I was injur...ed in a car accident a few years ago and when I knew very little on what my options were. He is not one of those lawyers who are difficult to get a hold of when you have questions. If he was not able to pick up the phone directly (which is very very rare with law firms), he returned all my phone calls promptly and took care of all my concerns. From beginning to end, he took charge of my case and handled it efficiently and professionally. He is very clear in his verbal communication and easy to talk to. I look back at other past lawyers I have consulted and dealt with and can say that my experience with Brian was actually exceptional. Thanks, Brian!
