Darianne Kagioglu I couldn’t more highly recommend Brian Barta after working with him on my case. Getting to the point where you need to pursue bankruptcy is a very stressful experience. No one gets to that point unless a lot has gone awry. During a time when stress is super high, Brian made everything easy to understand and peaceful. He was crystal clear on what I could expect, extremely organized, and professional - while also being sincere and supportive throughout the months that we worked together. With his expertise and manner of working, it made this whole ordeal calm, simple and manageable.

Fred Jaihooni Everything that I have heard about this firm from my friend who referred me has been true. I was never worried about my case, I knew I was in good hands. I recommend them to anybody experiencing any trouble with the law, amazing criminal defense attorneys work here.

Fernando Rodriguez Nick is the absolute man! Hes incredibly knowledgeable and tells it like it is—no sugarcoating. This was my first offense, and I was facing a DUI along with all the penalties that come with that charge. From the beginning, Nick clearly explained what the process would look like and laid out the potential outcomes we might face. Once we received the evidence in my case, Nick immediately developed a plan of action and began executing it without delay. A little background on my case: I left an establishment after having a few drinks and was pulled over at 7:52 PM for not having a front license plate (the timestamps are important in my case). The officer asked if I had been drinking, and I denied it. He claimed to smell alcohol inside my vehicle and had me step out to perform field sobriety tests. I completed the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus, one-leg stand, and walk-and-turn tests as instructed. Despite my cooperation, the officer stated I exhibited "lack of smooth pursuit" in both eyes. This led to the administration of the Preliminary Alcohol Screening (PAS) test. I blew a 0.085 at 8:17 PM and a 0.093 at 8:20 PM. At that point, the officer placed me under arrest and gave me a chemical breath test, where I blew a 0.10 at 8:33 PM and a 0.09 at 8:37 PM. Since I had been pulled over and had my car turned off at approximately 7:52 PM, about 25 minutes passed before I was given the PAS test. The rising BAC readings—0.085 followed by 0.093—strongly suggested that my blood alcohol level was still climbing. This allowed for the argument that I was actually under the legal limit while I was driving. Nick recognized this key detail right away. He brought in a forensic science expert and presented this evidence at my DMV hearing, making that exact argument. Thanks to his expertise, Nick was able to save my driver’s license and spare me the headache of dealing with the DMVs consequences. After winning the DMV hearing, Nick used that success to convince the District Attorney to reduce my charges from a DUI to a Dry Reckless—something that’s extremely rare in the county where I live. I ended up pleading no contest to the Dry Reckless and received 1 year of informal probation, 30 hours of community service, and an $800 fine. All things considered, this was the best possible outcome given my situation and the strict policies in my county regarding DUIs. Nick absolutely crushed it, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone facing a similar situation. I hope I never need a defense attorney again, but if I do, Nick will be my first call—no question!

William Martin Mega over the moon grateful for the enthusiasm, the encouragement & the expertise of Richie B. during our phone consultation. I wondered how much we could truly accomplish in 20 minutes. I got my answer. A lot. Richie validated my concerns, he gave me a map of the system. I would be dealing with. He pointed me in the direction of where I should stack my chips and focus my efforts. He sent me referrals & telephone numbers in an email, before our phone consultation was even finished. I am so grateful. Not only do I feel informed. Not only do I feel I have a right to have concerns. Not only do I feel less alone. I also feel, as I’ve already mentioned, like I now have a direction.. Richie B told me he has talked to over 2000 folks about the same issues. That history and that expertise showed up in every moment of our conversation. Yet he also had the enthusiasm of the first time. I am mega over the moon grateful.

Julie Bruton Brian Flahaven and his staff were wonderful. I was in a car accident and trying to deal with the insurance company proved to be time consuming and lacking in results. I called Flahaven Law Offices about a year after the accident and from that point forward they dealt with everything for me. It was so nice to know I had someone working on my behalf. In the end I received a fair settlement. I would use them again if necessary, but hopefully it won’t be!

S Klave I had a great experience working with Mathew. He is very knowledgeable and guided me through the entire probate process. Communication was clear and timely, making what could have been a complicated process much simpler. I recommend his services for anyone needing assistance with probate matters.

Mat Toker My interaction with this law firm was excellent. They obtained a just settlement for my car accident and handled it expertly. Excellent communication made me feel informed at all times.
