Mr.

A Lawyer That Gets The Job Done

It is a genuine pleasure and honor for me to recommend Mr. Brace and his firm for your potential legal engagement. Your legal affairs deserve the best possible representation; they give it. Mr. Brace and his firm has been nothing short of an exemplary advocate, counselor, and tactician of the highest... order in a series of very complicated civil litigation which I was part of during the past four years. These were multiple class action matters in Federal District Court both in California and South Carolina, as well as adversary proceedings in Bankruptcy Court in Virginia, both at the trial and appellate levels. My own part was unique in that I was both a practicing attorney, as well as a client of Mr. Brace. So I observed firsthand the strategy, research, tactics, courtroom delivery and negotiations of Mr. Brace. They were superb and the results show this and speak for themselves. To the best of my knowledge, Mr. Brace helped accomplish something which had never been done before: that is, a full and complete 100% recovery of not only our own personal lost funds which were stolen in a substantial Ponzi scheme undisclosed and unknown to us, but recoveries for hundreds of other victims of fraud. These class action recoveries totaled many millions of dollars. The legal and professional strengths he possesses are wide ranging and have been honed to a sharp edge by his years of experience and practice in complicated civil cases in both state and federal courts across the country. During Mr. Brace's representation, he demonstrated leadership, initiative and successfully met all responsibilities and obligations imposed on him by the court systems and opposing counsel. In fighting for his clients, Mr. Brace is not adverse to going nose‐to‐nose with some of the country's most prestigious and highly rated defense counsel and besting them. Mr. Brace and his firm represent you fully and completely and are there to advance all of your applicable goals and objectives. They are not there for a quick settlement, but work tirelessly to get you what the law says you are fully entitled to. Hollister and Brace, and especially Mr. Brace, does not wilt or fold under extreme pressure. They fight for your rights. Nor are they afraid or troubled to tackle thorny and complicated issues. They get the job done.
