Excellent Attorney

Brett and I were co-counsel on one of my cases and it was a pleasure to work with him. He is responsive, diligent, hard-working and knows his stuff. I highly recommend him.

Amazing Attorney

Brett represented me in an automobile accident. Brett always returned calls and kept me updated on the status of my case. Brett went above and beyond for me. I can't recommend him enough.

Always kept me in the loop

Brett handled a traffic accident for me a few years ago when I'd been hit by a texting driver. He was a great communicator, making sure to get in touch even if something was taking longer than expected. He was also a tremendous help to me in dealing with all the troublesome insurance companies and so...me difficult personalities. Brett made sure I was informed of every detail and I appreciated the thoroughness.

The best advocate!

Brett represented me on an employment issue where my previous employer was refusing to pay me for my hours worked. Brett contacted my previous employer in a stern and tactful manner and was able to get my unpaid wages within the same day! I had been trying to get this employer to pay me for over a mo...nth. I would probably still be waiting for my payment if it wasn't for Brett's expertise. I highly recommend Brett for any legal issue you might have. He is an amazing advocate and a true expert in his field. I have personally recommended him to other friends and family of mine.

Brett went above and beyond

Brett came highly recommended by a close family friend and honestly, exceeded all my expectations. He is a wonderful attorney and I would use him again and recommend him to all of my friends and family. I am so grateful for his hard work and diligence.

"I've known Brett for years, ever since helping coach his high school's mock trial team in County-wide competition. Watched him go off to law school (Go McGeorge! It's a school for men and women who want to really be lawyers.) I work in the same building he does - for years. He's aggressive and definitely motivated, but personable and caring. Keeps current. Good work ethic. Works hard. I endorse him."

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.
