5 /5 Tim Thornton: Beyond my expectation!
Almost 3 years ago we discovered we were going to be on the (potential) route of the latest 138Kv high power line development and massive new power substation for our area. This was not only a blind-siding notice, but one that we could not have imagined the complexity and opposition that would be involved. After many community meetings, petitions, letters, website development, banners, signs, education and so much more, it become very apparent that trying to do this on our own was going to end very badly for us.
A small group of us interviewed a few attorneys in this arena (including Mr. Bayliff) and the local attorney in our group had the wisdom and insite to recommend the best among them--Brad Bayliff. That decision was the smartest thing that we could have possibly have done, as Mr. Bayliff proved that he is incredibly knowledgeable in this field and his experience with the process, the people, the proceedings was unmatched at every turn. And on top of that, he had both passion and compassion for the issues we were facing.
It was clear from the first meeting in court, Mr. Bayliff is respected among his peers, and I am sure he is respected by all of his clients; certainly, he has the respect and heartfelt thanks of our community--many times over.
Mr Bayliff was collaborative with the community and our small steering group, and was always able to bring our local perspective into the sharp focus of the law and proceedings. At each step along the way, he made himself available to help us understand what was going to happen next and what we needed to do to prepare with him for the next stage of the process. The process was collaborative every step of the way.
I would describe Brad Bayliff as Strategic. Experienced. Respected. Collaborative. Astute. Trustworthy (not a label that I would pass out casually to one in the legal field). And Humble.
Did I get paid for this endorsement? Yes! If you count the decision that was made in our favor by the PUC, we were paid handsomely for this meager endorsement. (No--no monitory compensation or other compensation was offered or received for this resounding testimony of Mr. Bayliffs work on our communitys behalf).
If you need an attorney in Mr. Bayliffs portfolio area, I would resoundingly recommend that you start and end your search with Brad Bayliff. Thanks, Brad, for your work in our community! We will stay in touch.
