I would like inform the public about my personal ecperince with Michael Brennan and his wife. He has his office open part time , They sweet talks you to come in as a free consult amd If you fall for the 30 year experince and give him a retainer then , You will be lucky if you ever talk to him and you will have a lady from Sam Diego that will come to his office once a week and takes the file and does what she thinks should be drafted on your legal petition. He never called me until I fired him, He never remembered any of the facts of my case amd had to ask his wife. He spoke to my ex in a way to make sure the matter it does not get resolved , so I have to call him. He will fraudulantly try to eat up your retianer and force you to stay with him when you catch up to the scam. You can call me and ill share my emails and will show you what he did..(((REDACTED))) I am suing his wife and reporting him to BAR yo stop this guy. If he is retired then he should stop his practice.

Who would know about me and this firm as i only kept this two fraudsters for 3 days before i found out what they are up to. Just read the othee conplaints about this guy. Don't sign that wired contract.. Michael is the only person that knows about me and that is him writing this rebuttal. I am reporting this transaction to the BAR . If he was any good. He would be hired by big firm or owned one. Not have a 300 SQ condo for years.

Any person foolish enough to give Michael Brennan's Family Law Practice anything other than a 5 star rating is simply the statistical anomaly. Fact is, the man is an expert in his field and his wife is a professional valued employee and asset to the law firm, and both husband and wife work well together to provide you with one thing: quality results, ethically, and every time.
The problem with the above rip off report is not Micheal or his wife. I can assure the public consumer of that. The fact is, and is note worthy in the case of the complaintant's Yelp profile, this person simply is unhappy with his life and everyone who has the misfortune of crossing him on a daily basis. (Nature of his case, I'd presume: disgruntled ex-husband who's successful hot wife ditched him with his kid because she was fed up with his griping and complaing about the state of the nation and the embarassment he added to her life due solely to the fact that he does nothing but blame others for his miserable, unhappy existance- wait- is this MY own ex writing the above ROR???)
Call Michael! He'll offer you hope where you have been faced with calamity and additionally, he will take into account you and your family's every need making you feel like more than just a minute hand on the ticking clock. When I worked with Michael, I was shocked to see him give so much of himself to my case. It was almost as if he worked with me like he'd known me, my story, and my child forever. His caring and overall intelligent mindset gives him the competitive edge over any other person in the courtroom because he has proven to be more than just a lawyer, but as the true sense of the words relays, a protector and someone who speaks on your behalf as if he were inside your brain communicating only the truth and reality of the situation- whatever it may be.
When you are in a battle over custody Michael Brennan is the attorney to turn to. Divorce is never a pretty situation no matter how you spin it, but Michael is able to magically take the uncomfortable personal details that aren't always fun to share and make you feel comfortable and comfortably non-unique. Above all, what stands out the most about Michael's practice is his ability to intricately pay attention to detail and on a whim and even during the most stressful of situations draw upon this detailed knowledge base to provide the perfect solution for each unique situation thrown his way. He gets the job done in a fair, ethical and efficient manner.
A time-conscious and attentive attorney, Michael Brennan and his lovely wife accomplished what needed to get done in my case efficiently, thoroughly, and rapidly. He is highly respected both in and out of the courtroom making him a noteworthy and amiable colleague amongst judges and opposing counsel alike. Ultimately, there is truly no Family Law attorney more respected, better equipped, or trustworthy enough to handle such a delicate and important matter such as your children, and ultimately their future with the correct custodial parent, than Michael Brennan.
He has written an amazing book along side his wonderful wife titled "Custody for Fathers," a great read for everyone! Between this breadth of knowledge he holds within and the knowledge he's poured into the pages of his book, you can be positive that there's nothing he hasn't handled before, nothing that will shock him, and nothing he can't handle. Five stars to Michael Brennan- and a personal thank you for touching my life and my daughter's life for the better forever. You will always be appreciated, and words can never express how grateful we both are to have you in our lives.

Michael Brennan Costa Mesa Custody lawyer is an attorney that claims he has been doing this for 30 years but will do nothing but take your money and give your file to his assistant from San Diego to do the job,. I have her email ... He will work on you rather then your opposition to reduce your expectations so he can get an easy ride. A good attorney with 30 years of experience should not be in a 2 room suit still grinding to get retainers . People should be throwing money at them. I have fired him from the first week, and he doesn't refund my money. This is what happens to some of these old attorneys they will put the pressure on their client and if you say no, then they will come up with billing hours to eat up your retainer.. They use their experience to push their clients around and do as little as possible.
