When I came to Brett for the purpose of retaining an attorney for my case, it obviously was not a…read morehappy affair. However, throughout the entire process, Brett made my experience substantially manageable. When I did not feel very hopeful for a chance that my case would go smoothly and in my favor, Brett knew exactly what to do with his developed knowledge of the law and extensive experience in court. Initially, Brett told me all of the viable options he felt possible and gave me the option to choose what I wanted to proceed with, keeping in mind the potential consequences and how likely he felt things to play out the way we intended and wanted. He was always very upfront, concise, and easy to understand. Brett was always empathetic with how I felt and how different outcomes might affect my personal life and education/career options. Keeping my interests in mind, Brett managed to return the best possible outcome for me while minimally invading on my personal commitments. While it was difficult to appear in court because I live in New York City, Brett kept things simple and never made me appear personally for his own ease. He was easy to contact because I had two emails and his cell phone number. Additionally, he was always quick to reply to my concerns and questions, even after office hours or on weekends. I NEVER felt as though Brett had exclusive control and management of my options because he informed me at every update he received and really leveled with me as an individual to come up with and decide on challenges together. Because Brett formally worked "on the other side of things" in the courtroom, he knew the ins and outs of what was to be expected from the district attorneys or judges. He knew people personally and they also seemed to think highly of him because they were always friendly in response. This experience was crucial to my case and changed the entire outcome of what I initially thought possible. By working with me instead of "for" me, Brett took my interests and concerns to heart - he recognized how these sorts of situations are detrimental in many ways and it was obvious he cared about me succeeding in life long after my file was finalized. If I were local to the area at all, Brett would definitely be the attorney I retained consistently for any of my criminal law needs. Also, compared to other attorneys offering me "worse" potential outcomes, Brett was super affordable. He made payment quick and easy and was willing to help through consultation and the like before I had submitted payment. Although I paid all at once by credit card, he also offered payment options. If you are in the area and need genuine help concerning a criminal record/issue, Brett is the man to talk to! He will put your mind at ease and take care of everything while leaving you in control of your own file and life.

I was charged and could have served up to six months in prison along with up to a $5000 fine…read more Throughout the process Brett was very straightforward with me and didn't give me any false expectations at all. He laid out all the possibilities and made no promises. I went into the courthouse with no false expectation at all. I knew that regardless of Brett, I had committed a crime. Brett made very clear all that COULD happen under the circumstances. Brett was able to get me into into a program, without any fine at all. All I had to do is not get arrested for 12 months, and the charges were dropped. Brett is well worth his weight in gold. He saved my career and loads of money. I have never posted a yelp review before, but hopefully this serves as some sort of small thank you.

This situation will teach me to trust my gut. Had a consult with Stephen Johnson and got a bad…read morefeeling. Was going to try an uncontested divorce, but ended up needing an attorney. I went with Johnson and couldn't be more disappointed! Never felt he was looking out for my best interests, was VERY rude and unprofessional on every interaction. Communication was horrible as well. Paralegal just as bad. I received billings with several discrepancies. When I asked for a detailed bill, I received it however received an email 4 business days later at 1:30pm explaining if I haven't paid the bill in full that day, he would have no option but to resign as my council. I didn't receive this until the following morning when they already filed with the court to quit. This was all 5 weeks before my final trial date. If you choose to use him, I'm sure you will regret it as I did. Good news is, I now have an attorney looking out for my best interests that is polite and understanding of a very difficult time.

I hired Sherri Smelley In May of 2019, paid her upfront to handle a traffic ticket case from 2007…read more She took my money and ran, never made a phone call or anything. Gave excuse after excuse, I have been asking for my money back for 18 months, and to this day have not seen a penny except for sorry excuses! She deleted her Business Facebook page because there where many other reviews like mine that she took their money and never did a thing for their case. The reason I didn't do my research on this thief, was because I first met Sherri in 2002 at church. Never did i ever think she would steal my money and not do a dang thing for me. I had to hire another attorney who got the job done within 4 weeks. Please beware of this crook!!
