Introduction: My clients continually tell me that my work is exceptional. They tell me I am extremely knowledgeable, kind, compassionate and understanding. They tell me I am patient and fair. I routinely save my clients thousands, and sometimes tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees, and resolve their entire cases in a fraction of time it takes the courts to do so. In most all cases, my clients NEVER STEP FOOT IN A COURTROOM. I love using my legal skills and experience to bring people together in a way that results in them participating in the terms of a resolution, rather than a court TELLING THEM how the matter will be resolved. It is a skillful process that unites people with disagreements in a way they never thought was possible.

Very friendly and helpful. My divorce went through without any complications or extra time. I highly recommend using him.

Mr. Brenner performed a service of writing a letter for me to a recipient that wronged me. He was able to get all of the facts, on a very complicated case, quickly and effectively. Mr. Brenner then wrote a letter in a very professional way that included the law and items that were against the contract I had signed with said recipient. This had the conclusion of releasing me from the contract and the release of hours that I performed with the recipient. I plan on using Mr. Brenner in the future for reading of contracts and future business opportunities. I wholly recommend his services to anyone interested.

I contacted Mr Brenner for a prenup. He wrote my last name wrong on 3 separate revisions even though I corrected him initially. The last and final revision the last name was correct. I had to contact him to mail me a final copy since this was all done online. I never met with him face to face. When I did receive the document by mail the last name was again incorrect. I don’t have access to a printer that was the reason I needed a hard copy mailed to me. His response was “can’t you go to Kinkos?” I responded that was not the point. The point being the document was incorrect and didn’t offer to mail me a correct version.

Hi Evelyn. I really appreciate the (less than) 5-star review, as it provides me with an opportunity to improve and grow as a professional. Besides, if ALL my reviews were 5-star, people may begin to doubt their authenticity. LOL. Although we did never meet in person, I would have thought that what I delivered to you was a really good product, in a timely manner, and at a very reasonable price. Again, thank you :)

Douglas responded to me promptly and immediately got into solution to support me in my legal matter. He remained highly professional which made me feel safe and helped me to resolved my legal matter within 48 hours of me reaching out for his help. I was blown away. I know he's busy with many cases yet made me feel as if my case was important to him. Douglas really does care about what he does. You won't just be a number to him. Douglas brings a wealth of information and work experience to help his clients achieve results they need and in a very short period of time. I recommend Douglas to anybody struggling with a legal issue. He brings empathy regarding your situation at hand, kindness and a realistic perspective. Douglas is your guy! -Michelle

My father passed away leaving no directive. He had a small estate but I was bumping into walls trying to get his affairs in order. Decided I needed some help so went ink online and found Douglas Brenner. In less than two weeks he gave me everything I needed to go forward to take care of dad’s property. Very reasonable and efficient.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My fees are generally more reasonable than most, and I do offer payment options to assist clients.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Most often I like to meet once face-to-face at least once to establish a rapport. Often times I do not charge for an initial consultation, although that depends on the matter.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
MY EDUCATION NEVER CEASES, nor should yours. I take continuing legal education classes, talk routinely with lawyers, business owners, family and individual counselors and therapists, and read extensively. I also regularly attend trainings and seminars.
