Amazing. Incredibly knowledgeable, and a powerhouse all around.

If you are fortunate enough to have your case handled by Brenna Tanzosh, know that you are in good hands. Look no further. Over most of three years, throughout a contentious, difficult, nightmare of a divorce, Brenna Tanzosh frequently proved herself to be the most qualified lawyer in the room, and s...ometimes appeared to be the only one with definitive legal knowledge in court. Using her education, intelligence and clarity of vision, she no less than convinced a judge to rethink a hasty, damaging and unfounded ruling. Beyond that, she exacted an apology from the court, on my behalf. It was a stunning accomplishment. She stood up to irrational, badgering lawyers and brought sheer dedication, commitment and illuminative information to the discussion and negotiations until my case was resolved. This was no easy task. Far from it. She remained honest and in integrity even in the face of countless misrepresentations from the opposing side. She was easy to talk to, open to new information, always receptive and alert, and most of all, she was (is) kind. She was tireless and determined. I worked with two other lawyers before Brenna Tanzosh. Experience with other lawyers informs my opinion and fuels my certainty: Ms. Tanzosh is worthy of awards and accolades, for the work she is doing. Family law is full of problems. She brings a clear head, a dedication and a level of integrity which is reassuring and ultimately empowering. I stand in all gratitude for my chance to work with her.

Excellent attorney - and a nice person as well

I was quite fortunate to have a friend recommend Brenna to me for my divorce and separation case. My divorce was somewhat more complex than the typical case because of a joint business my wife and I owned. Brenna worked tirelessly to address questions and was exceptionally patient in dealing with... me & my situation. Throughout the entire process, I felt like I had an advocate for my my best interests, as well as someone who genuinely cared about my welfare in addition to the technical issues surrounding my case. I have actually revised my opinion of attorneys ( They are real people! Who knew...), and now I feel a slight pang of guilt whenever telling attorney jokes. I admit it's slight, but it's there. I highly recommend Brenna. I plan to engage her her services on all my future divorces.

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.
