I have worked with Brian often as a family law attorney. Brian is well know and respected for his civility and integrity, whether he is working as an attorney or as a pro-tem judicial officer. When I need to refer a family law case to another local attorney, Brian is invariably one of the attorneys I recommend, and I do so enthusiastically.

I have known Brian the entirety of his career and he is well respected in our legal community. He is more than just an effective litigator; he is exceptionally qualified as both a mediator and a pro tem court commissioner. It has been a pleasure to work with Brian both as co-counsel on cases as well as opposing counsel.

Brian is who I call first when friends or family ask for a referral for family law, estate planning, criminal law, or other matters. This is because he is extremely smart, has good judgment, and works cooperatively to avoid dragging out conflicts between parties needlessly.

I endorse this lawyer. I practiced family law in Thurston county for over a decade and Brian is one of the two family law attorneys to whom I make referrals. He knows the law, has a wonderful demeanor, and is on top of his cases. He is also highly respected in the legal community and among judges.

Brian is at the top of a very short list of family law attorneys that I refer clients to without hesitation. He is an effective advocate for his clients, but he is always willing to negotiate with an open mind. He's also a very nice guy.
