I was extremely comfortable and confident with Brian's skills in the very first meeting. Brian took the time to listen to my entire story, ask pertinent questions and he typed everything up in order to keep detailed records. This was done prior to hiring him. I decided to hire him right then and i...t was the best decision I made. Brian made me feel my case was important to him and that he truly wanted the best outcome for me. Brian was easily accesible via phone, text and email and he responded quickly. Brian's understanding of the law and court systems was amazing. He knew exactly what to do and how to work my case. The final outcome of my case was the results I was hoping to achieve. You cannot go wrong with Brian as your choice for your attorney.

I recently had the misfortune of coming under legal scrutiny as a result of a profoundly careless actions on my part. I was not at all without fault in the situation, but neither was I solely responsible for my predicament. Any further explanation will no doubt sound like the typical cliché’ used by ...most defendants in criminal cases so I will skip to the point. My reaction was not at all pro-active. Instead of addressing the problem head on, I chose to wallow in self pity and despair, believing that any hope for a positive outcome had vanished the minute handcuffs clicked on my wrists. I was lucky enough to know somebody who referred me to Tustin-based attorney Brian Neal Gurwitz. My initial visit with him was devoid of any judgement. He focused on the facts and was able to explain my options in a manner that was easy to digest. I left his office breathing easier than I had in a week and a half and with the ability to see a future that had me moving forward again in life. Brian appeared for me in court and explained to the judge everything that happened the night of my incident and was able to resolve the matter expeditiously. the end result was more favorable than I ever expected. Furthermore, he was honest about his fee structure and did not resort to any shady games like adding to the costs of what we had agreed to. I have to admit that I was expecting the opposite. I give Brian credit for helping me through my legal issue but more importantly I credit him for helping pull me from my pit of mental paralysis and allowing me to focus on my future again. The difference between today and 30 days ago is night and day. Brian’s skills as an attorney and a professional are equaled by his ability to empathize and reassure. I am profoundly grateful for his assistance and would recommend his services to anyone in need of legal representation.

Wow, where do I start? Can I really add to the title of this comment? My son was charged with two felonies with enhancement in 2014. This was actually an act of self defense but the O.C. District Attorney's office, will do anything to win a case, at all costs. Beware!! We immediately hired a c...riminal defense attorney from Beverly Hills but were not pleased with the result and the perpetual continuance of the case. 18 months passed and the D.A. in their effort to 'win', was taking the case to trial. I was desperate! How could this be happening?! **On a side note, I am an event producer in O.C., and in 2016 I did an event for a local group of defense attorneys, 200 of them**. I shared my frustration with the president of the group, she recommended I contact Brian Gurwitz right away. She said; "If I was ever be in trouble, I would call Brian". She gave me his cell phone number and I texted him. To my surprise, he responded right back! We met with Brian and he was not your regular high and mighty lawyer, he seemed humble, warm, caring and very very knowledgeable. We retained him the next day. We worked with Brian three months, because that is all it took him! Three months to resolve the problem that was changing my son's life. Brian met with us multiple times, always called and emailed with updates. He answered every text message in a personal and kind manner, explaining everything thoroughly. I am a mom you know.... He also recommend a very good investigator, to find out the facts of the case. Brilliant move. Brian appeared in court several times with my son. Always Brian, not an intern or an inexperience lawyer. He was savvy, bold, and new the ropes well. He challenged the O.C. District Attorney in their game, and the felony case was dropped to a misdemeanor. Brian Gurwitz, is not cheap, but, when you are in trouble, you don't want cheap, you want awesome!! At the end of the day, he does NOT nickel and dime you to death. For a flat fee, he will take you to pre-trial, he is totally worth it! I thank Brian Gurwitz, so kindly and with all my heart. I admire professionals that are EXCELLENT in their field. I admire people that have a HEART as they do business. I admire people that have work ETHIC and are HONEST and AMAZING at what they do! If you are looking for criminal defense, do yourself a favor and hire Brian right away, don't waste time or money going elsewhere. You will not be disappointed!!

Originally, I hired Me. Gurwitz for what I believed was going to be a state charge. When I found myself facing a federal indictment, Mr. Gurwitz stayed by my side and explained very clearly how the process was going to be different than state charges. I was informed that my co-defendants' attorneys c...harged them additional fees for being a federal case - Mr. Gurwitz did not do this and stood by his original quote. Over the duration of my case (4 years) Mr. Gurwitz remained professional and was always available whenever I needed him. He responded quickly and always kept me informed. Mr. Gurwitz always went above and beyond to make sure that my needs were met. For instance, when I had issues with my real estate and an unrelated charge, he did not hesitate to advise me on these issues either. I truly feel that Mr. Gurwitz cared about my outcome and helping me. I didn't feel like just "another client." Even after my release, he helped me take care of other legal issues and get my life back on track. He even continued to keep in contact with me to make sure that I was adjusting okay. I highly recommend Brian for Any legal needs that you may need. I personally know how stressful these situations are and you want to make sure that your attorney is someone that you can trust and genuinely cares about your well being and success. Brian Gurwitz truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond.
