highly unprofessional

I am a former client of Bryan. I had spent a very long time with him and accomplished nothing. I would not recommend him; he tells long pointless personal stories about himself and charged me for them as billable hours. I spent almost ten thousand dollars with him, and now years later I have hired... a new lawyer, and have been informed that Bryan made many mistakes in my original parenting plan. I truly believe that Bryan’s one and only priority is billable hours, he has no compassion. He was highly unprofessional and made many inappropriate comments. I wish I would have read these reviews before I hired Bryan, and I was truly disgusted by what I read in others comments. I would strongly urge you to choose a different lawyer.

DID A GREAT JOB FOR ME

In 2001 I had the misfortune to have to go through a very complicated divorce. It was emotionally and financially taxing. He made me feel very safe when I was so scared. His paralegal, Karen, is beyond super awesome and one of the most intelligent people in law that I have ever seen. Her speed de...dication and energy is incredible. Bryan handled my case and it included a week long trial. When it was over, he settled it excactly the way he said he would. I felt he was very competent, but he does cost money. Sometimes you need that junk yard dog to protect you. He did just that for me and I am grateful! NOTE FOR BEFORE DIVORCING....READ CAREFULLY AND GET YOUR NAME OFF ANY AND ALL SECURED LOANS (lines of credit) BEFORE DIVORCING. He did not tell me that part and it was a devistating mistake.

Experience

Rating:  5.9 (Average)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2017.

Reprimand issued in WA, 2017

updated on 02/27/2018

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
