Working with Brandon was an exceptional experience. From our first conversation about my case, an immediate sense of comfort enveloped me, fostering an atmosphere of trust. Our visions aligned, and we shared the same objectives for my case. Brandon meticulously guided me through every detail of the case, eliminating every ounce of ambiguity. His professional approach ensured transparency and fostered trust in our collaborative journey. Hi highly recomend Brandon and his firm to anyone.

Brendan represented me in a family litigation matter which was extremely stressful for me. Not only is he an excellent attorney who moved a stalled mediation forward to a successful settlement, but he also handled my many questions and comments with great patience and compassion. In my opinion, you cannot go wrong using Brendan Harvell.

Will contests involving family members is difficult beyond words. Brendan provided excellent legal advice and, more importantly for me, provided advice on how to keep focused and manage the pain. His wise counsel on how to rearrange my thinking and approach to the situation was brilliant. His advocacy on my behalf was beyond exceptional. He was an exceptional steward of the costs and expenses. Brendan is a gifted and outstanding attorney - not enough words to describe the value he brings.

I loved working with Brendan. He was always professional, and responded to my calls and emails. He kept me informed on every step, and worked hard to get the results I wanted. I just can't say enough good things about him. His knowledge of the oil and gas business was very impressive, and he had a way of explaining it that I could understand.

Brendan took his job protecting my interests very seriously. He acted quickly to any challenges we encountered. He answered my calls immediately and clearly communicated the issues involved and recommended what course of action we should take. He was pleasant, polite and extremely professional. We had a positive outcome, in great part due to his knowledge, promptness and attention to detail. Thank you Mr. Harvell

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
