Great Lawyer & Staff

How does he stay in business?
I hired Mr. Brixie over a year ago and the situation was disastrous. I could have lost the most important case of my life due to the lack of response and work required on MY end to accomplish what I needed.

I trust this lawyer
After 16 months of appealing for disability through forms filed with the SSA, I had received nothing but rejections. So, I sought help from a suitable specialist, Peter Brixie. After four months, I received a favorable settlement without having a court hearing.

I trust this lawyer.
I have sent at least 4 or 5 of my friends to Peter and he always does a great job for them. Now I will be sending another three people to him. Since I have been a paralegal for 20 years, maybe he will give me a job. Been wanting to work with him for years. LOL
Peter Edward Brixie's Lawyer Endorsements
"I met Peter while I was a student at Patino School of Law. Peter was my professor in a practice class that focused on assisting low-income clients in need of legal assistance. I was impressed at how Peter made clients feel instantly comfortable by displaying genuine concern while at the same time honing in on their legal issues. I am lucky to have had such a good role model. I will forever be grateful to Peter for his guidance and support. He is genuine, accessible and extremely knowledgeable. I endorse this lawyer."
"Peter possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience. I've consulted with him on numerous matters, and have always been impressed with his ability to quickly analyze a problem and offer workable, practical solutions."

"I endorse this lawyer."
"Peter Brixie is someone I have known for years as we both appeared on the "Ask A Lawyer" television show. He is a caring individual who goes to bat for his clients. I would refer anyone to meet with him and discuss their matter. Social security law is all the better for Mr. Brixie's involvement!"
"I endorse this lawyer's work.I worked with Peter Brixie for many years when we litigated employment termination and discrimination cases together. We won numerous cases against Fortune 500 companies. Peter is thorough and prepared and has exceptional rapport with even the most difficult clients. He vigilantly oversees the client's preparation of their own cases. Since Peter stopped doing employment law and started doing Social Security Disability/SSI cases, I refer all clients needing Social Security work to Peter. Peter knows more attorneys than anyone I know from when he was the host of the Ask A Lawyer and I call him whenever I need to find a referral to another attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer's work . I have known Peter for over 10 years and he has invariably done a great job on cases I have referred to him. He is caring, professional and very knowledgeable."
