Great Job

Outstanding representation kept me totally updated with any changes or information pertaining to my case. He did a great job. The results were much better than I expected. I would use him again if I ever need a lawyer.

buisiness

Mr. Pruit has been an excellent attorney . He has worked for me not for himself. I highly recommend him. He has guided me through this professional ordeal with comfort. I have put my life in his hands & he has come through for me. I give him a 100. LaurieS.

Great Experience

I hired Brett to defend me on a case in 2000. Shortly after our first meeting while he was reviewing the details surrounding the charges against me he discovered that the police department had performed an improper inventory of the items in my vehicle at the time of arrest. This information made my... case dismissible, and without the advisement of Brett this information would not have come to light. Brett did a great job with my case and I would recommend him to anyone I knew that needed a good defense attorney.

Wrote Demand Letter

Mr. Pruit wrote a demand letter for my business partner and me that resulted in the prompt payment of money due. Our company had been purchased by a major oilfield service company and the principals were to receive an upfront payment and three annual revenue-based payments due each year by September... 30th. The second year payment was late and showed no signs of being paid in a timely manner. The demand letter that was written by Mr. Pruit was submitted and payment was received in less than 2 weeks. Mr. Pruit's response to our request for services was met in a very timely manner. He thoroughly researched our purchase agreement and worded the demand letter in such a way as to politely express our dissatisfaction with the late payment and the process without jeopardizing our professional relationship with the purchasing company. Mr. Pruit's work was complete and professional and resulted in a positive outcome for us. He was forthright in his advice to us about our different avenues and directed us to a successful outcome. I would recommend Mr. Pruit for any legal requirements you may have.
