When our small, family-owned contracting company in Miami, MT, was hit with a professional liability claim from a dissatisfied client, we felt overwhelmed and our reputation was on the line. We needed an attorney who not only understood the letter of the law but also the practical realities of construction in Montana. Brad Brown was exactly that. His deep roots in Helena and his specific focus on construction law meant he immediately grasped the nuances of our case. Brad didn't just see us as a file; he took the time to visit the project site himself, which demonstrated a commitment we hadn't experienced before. His strategy was proactive and meticulous. He expertly navigated the pre-litigation negotiations, leveraging his extensive experience in defending these types of claims to clearly articulate why the client's allegations were without merit. The result was a complete dismissal of the claim without ever having to step into a courtroom, saving us immense time, money, and stress. Beyond the excellent outcome, Brad's communication was consistently clear and direct, yet always patient with our questions. He possesses a rare combination of sharp legal acumen and genuine, down-to-earth professionalism. For any business or professional in the construction industry facing a legal challenge, Brad J. Brown is the first and only call you need to make.
