About Brett Donald McIntosh

A question that I am often asked is "why have you dedicated so much of your career to defending criminals?" The answer is this.   First, experience has proven to me that many people who find themselves arrested or accused of a crime are hardworking, decent people who have made a mistake.   Often these mistakes are the end point of complex and  difficult  circumstances  in a persons’ life that have ultimately led to an error in judgment. For these individuals, the unfamiliar process of an arrest can be particularly stressful and confusing.  These individuals need help  navigating the dark waters of the Court process and this turbulent time in their life.  With proper guidance and representation, these persons will return to being the productive citizens and family members they have been and that they want to be again.    There will always be plenty of people to cast stones at the accused.  However, it is my belief  that being an effective advocate for the person in this circumstance benefits us all. Second, experience and raw statistics has also proven that there are many more people who are falsely accused of crimes than most people will ever realize. In my years practicing law, I have seen false or mistaken accusations leveled at my clients by strangers, friends, family members, domestic partners,  employers, employees and law enforcement. Too often these accusations result in an arrest and irrevocable damage to the accused.  I take pride in knowing that I have helped individuals fight back when faced with false or mistaken accusations and that I have played a role in restoring freedom and reputation to those who might otherwise have met a different plight. Finally, I enjoy a good challenge.  I represent people and my goal is to not allow my clients to be steamrolled by a system that too often devalues personal rights in the pursuit of security. I have spent my entire life and 18 year professional career in this community. My philosophy in creating McIntosh Law was to build a firm dedicated to  personalized, superior, results-oriented representation.
