Experienced Attorney

Mr. Thornton is very thorough and addressed all the issues in my case - many I was not aware of before I became represented. He was up front with me about my choices so I could make the best decisions about resolving my claim. His staff are friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend his servic...es. His office location is great and was very easy for me to get to.

NOT A VERY CREDIBLE ATTORNEY

I hired Mr. Thornton for the purposes of helping me with my horrific work accident. At first all was well and I felt as if a weight lad lifted off my shoulders. However as my case grew I started noticing my calls were never returned. Settlement negotiations happened without my knowledge. The only goo...d thing about this office is the secretary. That poor girl. She juggles everything for Brian and I've seen how smoothly that office runs because of her. Andrina always returned my calls and always assured that she had given my messages to brian. it was brian whom never returned my calls, emails, nothing. I had to walk away. Hopefully i can find another attorney to take my case. -M.Brosnan

Brian J. Thornton is the best WC attorney

Mr. BJ Thornton has surpassed my expectations as my attorney. I have been represented by 3 other WC attorneys previous to Mr. Thornton. He is attentive, reliable, and responsible in his representation of my WC case. In addition, his professionalism and attention to detail provides me with a worry ...free interaction with the court system. I highly recommend Mr. Thornton to any person who wishes to have the best legal representation available.
