About
Whether it is a world away or here at home, I strive to help others through my work. I learned the significance of helping others from my parents who spent their careers teaching people with disabilities. In this respect, I learned one powerful lesson from my parents: be passionate about your work. I am passionate about the law and I look forward to working for you.
I joined McIntosh Law Firm as an Associate Attorney in 2013. I am a trial attorney and member in good standing of the Florida Bar Association. Prior to joining McIntosh Law Firm, I worked as a Foreign Service Limited officer with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in Afghanistan. My job in Afghanistan included monitoring and evaluating legal training programs for the Afghan Appeals Court.
My family and I are active members of the Sarasota community. I serve as the Vice-Chairman of the Sarasota County Democrat Executive Committee and I am a Board Member of the Gulf Coast Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Association. I am a parish member at Church of the Incarnation in Sarasota. We are members and frequent visitors to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens.

"Case involving a Juvenile"My 16 y/o son was facing 3rd degree felony charges for something he didn't do. After hearing Brett is the best criminal defense attorney in town, I hired him, and was not disappointed! Brett is passionate about the law and people's rights and recommended we fight this. We could've just bowed down and went thru the juvenile probation system, but what would that be teaching my son? He's a good kid & applying for college scholarships...having a record would've ruined so many things he's worked so hard for. We could not have done this without Brett. He is very professional, knowledgeable & thorough. He's very confident in his abilities, as he should be. When he walked into the courtroom, you could tell how well respected he was by the other attorneys, as well as the cops and even the judge! He's definitely somebody you want on your side. My son's case was dismissed. Had it not been for Brett's guidance & expertise throughout this whole process, we would not have had the outcome that we did. I would recommend Brett McIntosh to anyone who needs a criminal defense attorney. He's very passionate about the law and his job, and truly cares about his clients from start to finish. I also have to say thank you to attorney Kevin Griffith who works w/ Brett. I'm extremely happy and can't say enough good things about Brett McIntosh and the whole team at McIntosh Law.- AVVO Reviewer

"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.

"Best around, hands down."Brett has been an outstanding attorney throughout my court case. Over the process, he helped me remain calm despite the sentence I was possibly facing. I am here today, writing this review, because of Brett and the time and effort that he put in to make sure that I received the best sentence I could get. He is knowledgeable, approachable, and understanding of his client's needs. I would highly recommend Brett to anyone who is in need of a criminal defense attorney. He is the best around, hands down.- AVVO Reviewer - Ben

"Trustworthy Attorney"Even though my case was a relatively minor civil matter Mr. McIntosh approached it with the same importance as a serious criminal matter. He is prepared to fight for his clients. His relationship with the state attorney’s office and credibility with the judges provide an excellent advantage to his clients. I would strongly recommend Mr. McIntosh and his committed staff.- AVVO Reviewer - Laurie

"Reduced DUI to reckless driving"Bret worked very hard to get my dui offense reduced to a reckless driving offense making my terms of probation much simpler to complete! Bret Save me a lot of money, time and also the aggravation of losing my license for a year! Bret also made it so I could be off of probation as soon as I paid for my court costs which could be as soon as 30 days! Bret and his staff were there the whole time keeping me informed of the my situation through the whole process and did a excellent job representing me!- AVVO Reviewer - Rafael
