he fights for you and does not back down

where do i start, well i was looking at a life sentence, So i hired Bryan Hershman and Scott McGinty which was the best decision i ever made. they fought for me and my family even when he was to busy to take my case. they kept me informed of everything that was going on they never backed down from t...he prosecutor they even worked weekends these two men are awesome, smart, professional and know there business he took the time to get to know me and feel like they are part of my family now. So if you want results you definitely want to hire Bryan, my life sentence went from life to ankle bracelet for 5 months

The best

If you hired attorney Bryan Hershman for your defense, then you already know he is the best criminal attorney in this area. He gets results! Hired him for a family member wrongly accused. He was responsive and produced excellent and fair results. The very great thing about Mr. Hershman is that he... cares for his clients and their situations. He’s the best criminal attorney you can get!

Police brutality

Well about 14 years ago I was tased by the police and put in a body bag and I know there's no statute of limitation against attempted murder when you didn't do nothing wrong

Best to ever do it...

Brian was not just attorney for most of all he is a friend that put everything on the the line in 1991 to beat a gang related double homicide in 1991 and never gave up until I was exonerated of all charges. RESPECT

Self Defense Acquittal on Murder Charge

This man saved my life. I was charged with 2nd degree murder and felt hopeless. Bryan layed it all out for me. Worst case lose at trial and get 15 years. Deal, best we can get is 10 years (Pierce County DA bullies for deals). We negotiated back and forth multiple times and they wouldn't come down. Br...yan never EVER told me what to do. He always asked for what I thought and felt. I would get the Pros and Cons and then make a decision and he would not question it once it was made. I chose Trial. He promised he would do everything possible to fight for my innocence. Bryan was calling me at 7pm, while he was changing his sprinkler heads, to work on my testimony. When he arrives at the courtroom in front of the jury he is sharp. Bryan shines when it comes to relating to the jury. We went up against a very good prosecutor. I would say they were equal in analytical skills of the law. But wowww Bryan was miles ahead when it came to presenting my case to the jury. His wording, charisma, and body language I believe was the difference. I didn't think I could take the stand (nerves) but his relentless coaching made my testimony work. We made a 20 page document outlining the testimony. This guy works hard. I got a full acquittal based on self defense and now have my life back.

  • 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.
