worth every penny

I had a highly adversarial case, where a trustee had to be removed and money recovered. It was truly a mess at every level and the firm supported me every step of the way, putting my best interests as a client first. Patient, meticulous and a ferocious advocate, I would recommend this law firm to any...one in a similar situation.

Excellent Attorney! Very satisfied!

Brad assisted me in helping settle part of my late father's estate. I was having problems dealing with one of my father's banks, who were extremely unhelpful and basically just giving me bad information (causing me a great deal of stress in the process). He got back to me the same day I called. I ...explained the issues with the bank, and he took me through all my options, explained what the pros/cons were of each, and helped reduce my confusion and let me know that I could get this settled relatively easily. I really felt supported and appreciate everything. Also, his legal secretary, Hazel, was absolutely amazing, keeping me informed about everything.

Great Job!

Brad helped me settle a very stressful, complicated, and potentially financially devastating estate issue with understanding and expert care. He demonstrated what only years of experience can teach...patience and wisdom. We avoided having to go to court AND, in the end, I was the recipient of all I... could have asked for and more! I consider myself very fortunate to have been referred to him and very much appreciate the way in which he handled it!

Great Attorney

Mr. Bradley (Brad) Kirk is an excellent attorney. I was very fortunate to find my way to Brad and his firm. Despite already having several legal actions on trust and elder issues brought against me in other venues, and one still pending, Brad was quickly able to master the complicated history, get ...to the heart of the legal matters, and provide invaluable guidance to me as a trustee, attorney-in-fact, and with my court accounting. Brad is an excellent communicator and is diligent, hard working, knowledgeable, creative, and smart. His (and his team's) preparation for depositions and skill during the depositions was amazing. We didn't ultimately go to trial, but Brad and his firm were thoroughly prepared to proceed. The final resolution of all matters was what I was seeking from the beginning. Along with Brad, it was also a pleasure to work with Jacob, Larissa and Christiaan. They were always professional, compassionate, honest and diligent. They went above and beyond, and I am very grateful to them.

Certified Public Accountant

Hired Attorney Kirk to remove co-trustee, who had commented elder abuse, fraud, and much worse with my Grandmothers estate. I was a hard client, and Brad did a great job. It took some time, was expensive, but worth every penny. I am grateful he was my attorney. He is straight forward, honest, and... knows how to put a case together! We went to arbitration to settle and Brad was fantastic, organized, had EVERYTHING documented, and right a his finger tips. My case was complicated and not easy, had it not been for Brad I would have lost everything.

"Although Brad is extremely knowledgeable in probate law his strengths lie his straightforward and pragmatic approach to litigation. He sees right to the heart of the problem and knows how to use the litigation process to bring out the best result possible for the client."

Litigation lawyer | Apr 02

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"By the time Brad got involved with this matter, there were 5 or 6 other attorneys sending self-serving paperwork with the court. Brad filed a simple set of paper that pinpointed the important issues, which served as an island from which the judge was able to regain control of the situation. Brad is now my top choice for probate court litigation."
