Excellent representation

The best for family law representation. I had a high conflict divorce case involving children— Brandon and Sylvia were amazing, diligent and intelligent. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my case.

The Absolute Best

The statue of Iustitia at the front office Brandon’s office is not there just for decor. I was in the worst predicament of my life—feeling hopeless, lost, angry, tired, anxious and wishing I never said the words “I do”—when I first laid eyes on this sculpture as I waited for my consult appointment ...with Brandon. I had to change from a previous attorney due to many issues that complicated my divorce. Doubtful but persistent with my search of a good counsel against my ex-husband’s, I slowly gained confidence after my first meeting with Brandon. That day, Brandon’s team met me with empathy and compassion. His paralegals Ashley and Keith, and associate attorney Brittany, were all superb. All their communication with me were full of care touching on sensitive subjects related to the case which they handled with utmost grace and professionalism. Brandon fought for my case and was an exceptional litigator. Not only is he a remarkable attorney when it comes to litigating a case, he is also an extraordinarily fair human being. I’m beyond grateful for the services of the Law Offices of Brandon Sua and I highly recommend his practice to those seeking real justice.

Avoid at all costs

The previous 1 star reviews have already addressed many of the same issues I had when I unfortunately hired Brandon Sua and his team to represent me in my divorce case. They did everything in the initial consultation to instill you with confidence that they will aggressively fight for you and communi...cate with you throughout the entirety of the case, while bragging about their reviews. Nothing could be further from the truth. The moment you sign the dotted line and Brandon get's his deposit, it all goes downhill. Not only will Brandon disappear entirely and have you deal with his paralegals at an absurd hourly rate, but you'll also have to correct the numerous detrimental errors his team consistently makes (thus costing you more). Trying to perform the miracle of getting Brandon on the phone to rectify said issues would be a fruitless endeavor that'll have you pulling your hair. If you do make the mistake of hiring Brandon, pay close attention to your invoice and keep track of everything diligently, or you're guaranteed to have errors that will cost you thousands. There are far superior attorneys you can hire to represent you that will make you and your case a priority. Brandon's sole concern is his bank account and ego.

Run!

My suggestion to you is to QUICKLY RUN AWAY from him as fast as possible. All he did was make a great presentation and false claims of what he was going to do and followed through on nothing. I don't feel like he did anything, maybe 1%. He got paid in full up front because he told me they didn't d...o payment installments, and I guess he figured since he had all the money he didn't have to put forth any effort to do anything. Over the course of a month, even though he had been retained to represent my son, he never visited or met with him not once. He kept coming up with excuses, the same as he did about anything he stated he would do; was always a reason why he never followed through. I found it hard to believe the 5 star reviews compared to how he handled my son's situation. I agree with the other 1 star review; it was more believable as to how he handled my son's case.

Custody Battle

I was referred to Brandon after leaving my old attorney due to lack of progress and spending lots of money…..with minimal results. Not only that, I was done feeling like I was the “back burner” client. When I went to Brandon, I had about 10 percent visitation with my son, a crappy agreement with my ...ex-wife (completely favoring the mother) and very little money left to retain another attorney. Brandon and his team took me in, saw my love for my son, gave me an affordable service, and put together a great case. I also felt a huge difference with them as far as client/attorney relationship. They fought hard for me and helped me gain 50% custody of my son. As well as help resolve numerous issues I had with my ex-wife. One of the best days of my life was the day I was granted equal custody of my little boy. It could not have been done without Brandon and his skilled team. They were diligent and compassionate and we were totally successful in and out of the courtroom. My son is almost four years old now and unfortunately court has been necessary in order for him to be in my life. When a mother goes out of her way to prevent the bonding of a father and his son, you need support and you need professionals. I plan to keep the Sua team on my side for many years to come. Not just for my son, but I feel confident that Brandon and the whole crew will be there for me if other things ever come up where I need some solid representation. I know one day my son will be just as thankful as I am for the results we got.
