    "Outstanding service through a VERY difficult divorce"

    Bret did a fabulous job of understanding what my own priorities were and of helping me find the best way to patiently work through the process in order to achieve those goals. I can’t imagine what I would have done without him, and I now keep him on

    - Former Client
    "The only honest lawyer I've ever met"

    He does not learn so much from lost cases as learn on the fly so as to avoid losing the case, to begin with.
