Brian represented my son involving a major accident. Up front, Brian was compassionate and he had clearly done this before. He spent time interviewing various stakeholders including my son. I was impressed with the strategy we pursued and how he clearly outlined what was being accomplished and upcoming steps. He provided us with things we could get and do to improve our chances in court. So, we were involved which helps to feel like progress is being made! Finally, Brian was able to use his relationships to help us with court officers, follow-up and ultimately a favorable verdict. Thank you Brian!- Marcus
