As most of us know, our justice system gives a person convicted of a crime the opportunity to appeal his or her case. In most cases, a criminal appeal does not afford the convicted person the ability to challenge the facts of the case. But it does allow a skilled appellate attorney the opportunity to show that a court misapplied the law, went outside its scope, or otherwise erred in its judgment.

I had retained Mr.Neary in 2014, for my criminal case. Through the entirety of my case Mr. Neary AND his staff had always remained professional and worked diligently on my case. I was a young individual whom was lost and unsure as to what is going to occur next due to the severity of my case however Mr. Neary was able to award me a very favorable result as well as guide me throughout the process due to his experience, knowledge, and genuine care for his clients. I would recommend Mr. Neary's offices with absolutely no hesitation and I advise anyone who is in search of an attorney to speak with

I'd give the highest recommendation for Brian J. Neary's law office. The assistance I received from Brian Neary and his associate Caitlin Kenny was terrific. I like their whole approach. They're not just knowledgeable and effective, they offer a perfect mix of professionalism, kindness, courtesy, and empathy. That's rare to find, and greatly appreciated.

Most horrible experience I've ever had with a lawyer. He never and i mean NEVER calls you back, never text you back, and
I was left completely blind in my case. I felt I had to do all the work and research on the law and my rights myself. I mean how confident could I even be when i never could get him on phone. Every court appearance he was hours late or would send some junior attorney that was in training, in his place. Only reason I chose to hire him was because of his super lawyer status. He charges $10,000 for doing absolutely nothing. At the end of the case when the judge asked me if
