I have no qualms whatsoever about highly recommending Bridgett for any legal issue you might be facing.
I'm going to be 100% honest here in saying that I kind of went back and forth in the beginning after having retained Bridgett because I had heard such great things about her but then I didn't hear much from her regarding what she thought about certain hearings or my case in general. But then common sense kicked in and I thought, "No, she's just really busy and there's probably absolutely nothing to report anyhow. She had mentioned in our very first conversation that there would be a whole lot of nothing before things finally got going. And really, who wants to bring that stuff up when you're just trying to live your life the best you are able to in the meantime?"
After having been falsely accused of something and having a trial looming over my head for far too long, I am still elated over the fact that I was found not guilty and that true justice had prevailed in the end. Bridgett was absolutely fantastic throughout the two-day trial. She knew just what to say in order to help quell my fears without giving me any false hopes or promises. She answered all of my questions and gave good, sound, expert advice while also being receptive to my own thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. However crazy they may have been. She is also extremely bright, quick whitted, professional, funny, diligent, and on top of all of that....she really is a very personable, empathetic, kind, and caring human being as well. She made what could have been an absolutely horrific experience seem almost somewhat....pleasant! I even had to fight the urge to keep bugging her with texts long after my ordeal had finally ended. Which, if you knew me, is so very unlike me.
Just remember that as stressful as something might be, try to remain patient, keep the faith, and just know that Bridgett really will fight for your best possible outcome .

Bridget was very responsive and very helpful in a time where we were most unprepared and in desperate need she was up beat and positive though our experience and even though we didn’t fully go through with our case we would recommend to anyone that’s looking for someone understand, patient and smart and helpful 😊

Although my case did not go as I had hoped (no fault of hers)Bridgett was extremely responsive while preparing for court. During court she advocated for me to the best of her ability.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am very sympathetic to the fact that most people do not have thousands of dollars set aside in case they need an attorney! For this reason, I work out a payment arrangements. I also except credit cards, Venmo, PayPal and cashapp. Whenever possible I work on a flat fee basis so you will not need to stress about racking up a huge bill. Also, I now offer financing through affirm.
