Brent H Smith

I hired Brent for a contentious civil suit that several attorneys I had contacted would not touch. From the beginning, Brent expressed an openness to discuss the matter and he demonstrated an orientation to his profession that his work was about much more than just earning fees. In other words, Brent... showed a strong leaning towards a sense of justice that reflects his high degree of character and personal integrity. He never hesitated to be straight about the potential risks of pursuing the lawsuit; but, he also maintained a realistic sense of optimism that I believe had an immense impact on how successful he made my case. Even though the case was contentious, Brent never backed down, showing that my case was important to him and that he could not be bullied. With that said, however, I believe Brent's honest and personable demeanor during trial led to the jurors trusting him a great deal more than they would even your above-average attorney. All in all, in my view, Brent stands out as an attorney because of multiple factors: personal character, ability to connect with people, his intellect, and his capacity for logically organizing highly complicated legal issues. All of these factors contribute to his being a very effective lawyer. I would recommend Brent to anyone I care about, period.
