Brian Hurwitz is an experienced criminal defense attorney who has established a reputation among clients, prosecutors, and judges as an honest and trustworthy gentleman. He recognizes the stress and anxiety brought about when people are faced with criminal charges that may have a devastating effect on their lives. Achieving positive results for these individuals requires an attorney steeped in California law who also possesses insight into human nature. Brian understands that his clients expect him to be compassionate and sympathetic as he listens carefully to their problems. To prepare a solid defense strategy, Brian has found that practicing every day in the courtrooms of Los Angeles and surrounding counties has afforded him the opportunity to gain intimate knowledge of the reasoning used by prosecutors and judges as they assess the cases brought before them. This valuable information and that gathered from listening to client predicaments is then used to refute vigorously the arguments presented by the district attorney. Underlying Brian’s entire approach to winning in court is the importance of open and frequent communication. This skill comes second nature to Brian. He knows that speaking forthrightly about possible consequences and always being available to answer client questions is essential for a positive attorney-client relationship. Brian has used his good communication techniques to become an accomplished negotiator. Thus, if he cannot convince the judge to dismiss a case outright, he turns to plea bargaining where he uses his talent to persuade to get the best possible results for his clients. Brian exudes confidence and this trait leads to trust and faith in him as he works tirelessly and diligently to fight the charges brought against his clients. Hard work, perseverance, and determination are what clients can expect from Brian.
