Highly recommend

I had a great experience working with Brian. I was quite distraught when we first met but he was reassuring and guided me through the process. He was quick to respond to any questions and concerns I had. Brian is a great communicator and my settlement was resolved amazingly fast! I am grateful that B...rian was recommended to me. His demeanor and professionalism made an uncomfortable, unsettling time much easier to deal with.

Great Attorney

I highly recommend Brian. I have found Brian to be very responsive, highly ethical and knowledgeable. Having worked with different attorneys over the years for various needs Brian is the top in responsiveness and just getting things done that I have worked with and it is so refreshing. Divorce ...is difficult enough on its own merits yet with Brian’s help it has made the process easier to navigate and manage through. Brian’s flexibility in establishing our working client/attorney relationship made a huge impact for me which I am grateful. I am thrilled to have established a relationship with Brian and will recommend him to anyone that could use his services. _____________________________________________________________________________________Brian is very responsive and prompt clear and articulate.

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.
