"Highly recommended"
Brett McIntosh was refereed to me by a friend of my family. He was able to get one of my charges dropped and the other changed to a misdemeanor. He explained everything to me and made me feel less worried about the outcome. He handled my whole case very well. He is one of the best around and you will be in very good hands with him on your side. Thank you Brett.

"Compassionate, Knowledgeable Attorney"Two years ago I was charged with a felony and my lawyer and I agreed that a plea agreement was my best choice of action. Within the first year my lawyer died unexpectedly, two months before my first sentencing hearing. My family made numerous calls to lawyers in the Sarasota area and Brett McIntosh was recommended and took on my case. He is a very smart and knowledgeable attorney who was also easy to talk with. We discussed my situation at length and he explained every aspect of my case with me. He worked hard for a year through numerous postponements on my behalf and was able to get my sentence lowered. He is an excellent attorney who treated me like a person and not just a client. I made poor choices which led to my arrest and he believed in me and knew I was a good person. Thanks to him I will be able to get my life back on a positive track sooner than I hoped.- AVVO Reviewer - Derek

"Excellent Attorney"
For the first time in my life I got myself into some legal trouble, and was charged with a DUI. After speaking with others who have had similar legal issues I chose to hire Brett McIntosh as he came highly recommended, and I see why. He was very upfront and clear about where he saw my case going and also was honest and reasonable with his fees. He used the details of my case to afford me every legal avenue that I had available. This resulted in a favorable outcome for me. What a relief. Brett is a great lawyer, do yourself a favor and talk with him if you need a criminal defense lawyer. Thank you Brett for your hard work on my case.

"A Complete Victory"Brett delivered a masterful performance in court, leading to the dismissal of all charges against me. Not only did Brett secure a complete victory, but he also effectively tarnished my accuser's credibility in the eyes of the prosecutor.- Greg S.

"Juvenile Defense"Criminal Defense Attorney, Brett McIntosh, has had a reputation in Manatee and Sarasota Counties for a very long time as an attorney who fights for his clients no matter the circumstances! I am sure that reputation will and continue to grow for many more years as Brett is the real deal and will do all he can to reach the best, most fair result for his clients. My family recently had an unfortunate experience resulting in an exaggerated felony charge on a juvenile. After consulting with Brett, it was clear that he was fair, honest and extremely skilled in his practice area. Brett was not only able to get the original felony charge lowered to a misdemeanor, but worked diligently with us and the State Attorneys office ultimately negotiating the result of Nolle Prosequi. Well Done Mr. Mcintosh!! We highly, highly, highly recommend McIntosh Law!!- AVVO Reviewer
