Closed Case in Less than a Year with Excellent Results

My boyfriend and I were having a tough time finding a lawyer who would be able to expedite the start of our case. After an initial consultation over the phone with Brian Baker all necessary paperwork was in the process to get majority custody of my boyfriend's daughter. By far, Brian is one of the be...st family-law attorneys that we have encountered. He is very detailed and willing to help. He was able to close the case in less than a year with more than satisfactory results. My boyfriend's daughter was going through a lot of emotional and physical abuse. We are so very thankful with all the support Brian and his team provided us in order for my boyfriend's daughter to be in a better home with us.

Avvo Rating

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.
