Top DUI Lawyer in the Bay Area

First-class service. I would give Mr. Brand a 10 on the 1 to 10. What a fountain of information he is. He has in-depth knowledge of all the California laws, and a very strategic mindset. I spoke on the phone with him at 7pm at night, and we chatted for nearly an hour. I was terrified about my si...tuation. His compassionate and knowledgeable approach made a huge difference in my mindset. One tip. He will ask some very detailed questions about the incident, as well as your past history, so have your paperwork with you during the call. We ended up taking a break, I found the docs and texted him photos. Then we continued the call. In terms of price, his quotation was honest and fair. I would highly recommend him if you are in need of professional help with a DUI.

Good consult

I just started searching around for a dui attorney. Just gave Mr. Brand a ring and he spent about 45 minutes chatting with me about my case. I was stopped in SF and initially it had absolutely nothing to do with drinking, but the situation escalated. I have never met an officer more dead set on be...ing a jerk. I'm not sure exactly how to proceed and what my options are, so it was good to talk to someone. I don't have much in the way of savings and depend on my car for living, so I'm in a bind. Mr. Brand what is prob a good price but out of my price range at the moment and suggested that I use a public defender if I can qualify. I may try to do that. I appreciate all the info tho'.

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.
