I met him today and he instantly made me feel comfortable. He seems like he really has s passion for his job and he really cares. I feel like I was led to him for a reason. I’ll update more details after everything is resolved. He’s a really great guy and I look forward to working with him

A man who can outwit DA’s and Judges with his charismatic personality and sensibility. Level headed and matter of fact. Does not play around. Worth every penny. He will definitely perk your life back up.

I came into his office with little to nothing of confidence after catching a POM in a drug free zone with 3 felony under my belt. He advised me to trust him that he would do nothing less than fight for me and that i was in good hands he said my case could last up to a year in order for me to get my case possibly dismissed with no probation , no suspension of my drivers licence which was my only wish . After a couple court dates Podolsky and his TEAM worked hard and diligently to come to a resolution. Mr.Brett always answered my Questions and gave me hope through this stressful process.He contacted me with great news about how he was working out a deal to get me approved for the clean and green program which after completion would result on my case being dismissed. Podolsky himself said to me " Would you say I'm a MIRACLE WORKER for getting your case dismissed" I definitely recommend Brett Podolsky and his awesome team because he is hands down the BEST Criminal Lawyer in HOUSTON!

Brett was the lawyer for someone close to me. The DA wanted to give them 10 YEARS in prison. This guy got the case DISMISSED. I’m still reeling in shock! Brett is wonderful!

I would like to post a this review to explain my experience having attorney Brett Podolsky defend me against a false accusation made by an ex-girlfriend. This resulted in felony charges for supposedly attacking and choking my GF at the time. According to the police she was beaten and choked until she thought she was going to die. They had statements and photos. I was innocent of these charges and at the time I was arrested, I was a cadet at the DPS Police Academy. I was arrested in Austin, Texas where I stayed in jail for weeks before I was extradited back to Houston where the case was filed. I worked very hard to get accepted to the DPS Academy and was devastated and humiliated when I was arrested in front of other cadets. My family and I met with several lawyers and decided on Mr. Podolsky as he seemed to be best able to fight the case for me. It was the best choice we ever made. It took almost a year with the DA trying to send me to prison and then probation and then they offered to reduce the case to a misdemeanor. Every time they came at us with an unacceptable offer, Brett had the evidence and documents and arguments to shoot it down. He believed in my innocence and never once did he try to pressure me to "plea out" or take a deal. I watched in court as things sometime got heated with the DAs but he never budged. Finally the DA agreed to dismiss the case. I was in court with family and we almost broke down in the middle of the courtroom. I cannot thank him enough and would tell anyone who needed a serious lawyer for a serious case to hire him.

I hired Mr. Podolsky after I was implicated in a International Human Trafficking case in Federal Court in Chicago, Illinois. The FBI and Homeland Security contacted me about my suspected involvement and after a conversation with the Federal Agents I knew I needed a good lawyer. I am a business consultant with a wife and kids and had never been in trouble in my life. After interviewing him, I knew he had the skills to get the job done. Mr. Podolsky immediately stepped in and explained the Federal Criminal Court process, contacted the prosecutor and advocated on my behalf. He convinced the United States Attorney that I was more valuable as a witness than a criminal defendant. But that was not all, Mr. Podolsky even negotiated an immunity agreement that allowed me to cooperate with the Government and testify under oath without fear that my words could ever be used against me. The Federal prosecutor even told us that he has had several suspects and witnesses testify in this case and we were the only one that insisted and was granted an immunity deal. We flew to Chicago, met with the agents and prosecutors and the Grand Jury and I walked out of there a free man. He was a real professional and I highly recommend him if you are in serious trouble.

Very unprofessional I spoke with him over the phone we set up a time and date to meet but when I got there the receptionist told me she could call me to reschedule and I’m like I’ll wait I need to talk to someone plus I drove a long time she didn’t even let him know I was there like she was so scared to contact him I ended up waiting on him to come out of a “meeting” that he never came out of (a man walked by looked me dead in my face didn’t say anything i honestly think it was him smh!!) and he never called back I had a bad feeling the moment I stepped foot in the building but I already drove a long time just to get there his office is very shady tiles are moving under your feet as you are walking lol DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME

I was arrested and charged for assaulting my wife, who had made false allegations that I had been abusing her for years. From the beginning, the prosecutor assumed I was guilty and would only talk about jail time and wanted me to be a convicted domestic abuser. This was one of the worst times of my life, as I have never been accused of a crime before. I have a master's degree and an MBA, and it goes without saying that these false charges would have destroyed me.

I hired Brett and he and his team of lawyers stood by me the whole way, fought for me nonstop, and after months of going to court and ready to take the case to trial, the DA finally gave up and dismissed all charges.

As a business professional with high expectations of those I work with, I would not hesitate to give Brett Podolsky an unqualified recommendation!

Brett Podolsky is an amazing lawyer! I was really nervous that my boyfriend would get a year and a half, but when it came time for him to fight in court for him Brett was vicious. For every negative thing they had to say about him Brett had a come back that even had me in awe. It went as far as getting one of his violations dismissed and he ended up only having to do 8 months, and most importantly he will no longer have to deal with a probation officer , that's right he is off of papers!!! We couldnt have asked for a better lawyer. Thank you soooooooo much from the bottom of our hearts Brett for all you have done!!! You're amazing!! - Krystal and Jamal.

Mr Brett is very professional and helpful attorney.
He helped me with my colleagues sting operation which was very embarrassing. I found him online and called his office on Sunday. He instantly took over the case and got us through. Our case was little complicated with criminal and immigration issues but, I’m glad he took us out of it.
He was on time and with us all the time On every court dates.
I would definitely recommend him for any criminal case.

I first called Brett about a criminal mischief charge that I had obtained. First time I’ve ever been arrested or in trouble with the law. I was worried it was going to be very difficult. A lot of things I had no idea. A lot of vocab and phrases that blew right over my head. But Brett and his team were helpful and patient with me. They explained everything into detail and made sure I understood what was going on! They got me off on that charge! And made it look like cake! Sense then I then got another charge, possession of marijuana. I instantly knew who to call. Because when you call Podolsky Attorney at Law, you’re calling the best defense in Houston. But you’re also gonna be working with some amamzing people.

I think all the reviews here have been paid for or are fake accounts. He would be late and would only care for his “murder case”. That’s the excuse he had for everything. Making our case feel with less worthy. He didn’t do anything for our case. The case was not dismissed and Whatever i ended up getting was literally given to me by the court. Not because he did anything or made an effort. He’s not easy to reach, has bankers hours. I truly suggest you look for someone else that makes you feel more like they at least care about you. I always felt like he WANTED to take it to trial simply to make more money. Who wouldn’t. It was such a simple case and he couldn’t get it dismissed. He had it reset for almost a year. Case was a criminal mischief. Wasted 5,000$. Could’ve represented ourselves much better.

Bret represented my husband in a serious felony case , the da was insisting he go to prison for several years. Bret fought the case for months never backed down . Subpoenaed records and investigated the case and proved my husband was innocent . After almost a year of going to court they dropped all charges . Awesome lawyer a real fighter!!!!!!

I was facing a daunting criminal conviction that placed my career, income and reputation in serious jeopardy. I interviewed many Attorney’s, yet Brett displayed “command of the facts,” confidence, and the experience required as a former Prosecutor. He proved to have the required relationships within the DA to formulate my defense. He crafted many solutions & options and deployed a methodical approach in defense of my case which reached dismissal in a few short months. Both the outcome and timeliness exceeded my expectations.

Brett Podosky did an amazing job in getting my case dismissed! He was there for me every step of the way and worked tirelessly to get me the very best results. In court he was tenacious and fought to achieve the best possible outcome, resulting in a dismissal. I could not be more thankful.

I’m a high level financial executive and was falsely accused by a former girlfriend of stalking. After meeting with Brett I immediately hired him because he understood how important it was that my name was cleared from these false accusations. Brett was professional, very knowledgeable and experienced and that combination resulted in dismissal of my case. If you’re in need of representation I highly recommend Brett. He listened to what I said but also was very direct in what he needed to be successful. He always responded and was available which I found to be above and beyond the norm for most attorney client relationships. Again I highly recommend Brett, from my experience he is he best attorney you could hire in Houston!

After my home in Montgomery County was raided due to somone else living with me I was arrested. It started out with my minor child involved In A traffic stop, which for some reason ended up at my house. After I refused to cooperate with the police on searching my home with no warrant,they bullied their way in. Everyone in my house was arrested. I employed Brett as my attorney and he was able to exercise my 4th amendment right. It took a few months but with his knowledge and skills in his profession they have dismissed my case. This would have been my 3rd felony and I was looking at prison time. I truly appreciate what Brett has done for me and my family by making my case of importance and handling it professionally to receive the best outcome possible. I highly recommend him for any defense case that you may find yourself in the middle of! Thank you again. Brett Podolsky.

I hired Brett after being arrested and charged with felony drug possession in Montgomery county. The police entered my home with a search warrant, and arrested me for drugs they said they found inside. I had priors so I was presumably facing prison time. After months of Brett working hardly on my case, it was dropped due to the police violating my 4th amendment right. You will be in great hands with Brett defending you

**PLEASE READ**
Sorry in advance it's lengthy but it positively changed my life.

Today is one of the happiest days in my life. Early 2015, I was arrested and charged with Online solicitation of a Minor looking at 2 to 20 years in prison. I had no clue how I was going to hire an attorney but I knew I had to find one as soon as possible.
I called so many lawyers and had so many lawyers call back. I was totally overwhelmed and did not know how to pick one especially with my financial means.
Most lawyers I talked to focused more on the payment or seemed "too busy" to talk to me. A few lawyers offered me a small attorney fee but with the condition of a plea deal. I read attorney reviews, credentials and overview of their cases.
ONE just ONE attorney's office stood out after our initial conversation. Not only for their CREDENTIALS, previous successful cases, payment arrangement but also the way this attorney, his associates and staff talked to me with patience and understanding.
Law office of Brett Podolski always treated me with respect, no prejudgements, and they actually showed me that they care for me and my case.
I had previously read his positive reviews, but to actually experience Brett and his team fight for justice. Fight aggressively to defend me at my trial. This further confirmed what I already knew. That Brett and his team DID NOT see me as another paying client. But that they cared for me as a person. Brett and his team worked and fought my case vigorously throughout those 5 years and successfully got me a NOT GUILTY verdict.
NOT GUILTY
I would definitely recommend the Law Office of Brett Podolski. They gave me my life back. Thank you guys so very much and God bless!

I was falsely accused of a hit and run in Houston and never had any previous criminal charges. I interviewed 4 different local attorneys and decided Brett was the right fit. I could tell he had my back and wanted to correct the injustice. He gave me great advice and coaching during the initial consultation. He kept me updated throughout the process. His understanding of the Harris County criminal process and people was unmatched. Brett got my case dismissed during the first court appearance by going to the front of the line in the courtroom and taking it right to the judge. He spoke up at the right time and it was handled beautifully. Within 3 weeks of first talking to Brett, my case was dismissed.

I hired Brett Podolsky when I was wrongly charged with sexual assault. I was innocent and needed a good lawyer. He really helped me. Hired investigators who interviewed witnesses at the party we went to. Got computer experts to get back deleted messages from my phone that showed that I didn’t do it. After six months of court hearings he finally got the case thrown out. He is the best and I highly recommend him if your in a jam.

I hired Mr. Podolsky after meeting with several lawyers. He was recommended by a friend. I was arrested for a felony drug case and a misdemeanor drug case in Fort Bend. I was caught in my car with drugs after being pulled over for speeding. I was looking at up to 20 years on the felony drugs. I had been in trouble when I was younger so I was panicked. I hired Brett and he worked on the case for over a year. He was immediately able to get the misdemeanor pot case thrown out. And after a year of fighting with the DAs he got the felony thrown out as well! I don’t know how he did it but he kept telling me to be patient and hold out. It was a grind but I’m glad I listened and now all charges are dismissed. He is my guy forever. I’ve had some bad experiences with lawyers but Mr Podolsky and his crew were great. Highly recommended.

I was busted by the police who had clear evidence of my guilt. I engaged Mr Podolsky to defend me & was frankly amazed he was able to get my case dismissed. I can't rate him & his team more highly. Not the cheapest but not the most expensive. I could have had jail time & hefty fines but there was none of this. Kudos to Mr P. Impressed I was. DJ

I had a reckless driving case which started on December 17, 2018. I contacted many different attorneys but after careful consideration I decided to go with Brett. It was a great choice. Brett made it easy for my busy schedule to be able to communicate mainly thru the phone. I was kept up to date on the details of my case all the time and I was never worried of how my case was going to turn out. He made sure that all evidence was present before even making move since he wanted to make sure to get the best result. In the end I was required to take defensive driving and a decision making course which could both be done online to have my case dismissed. Could not have asked for a better result.

I hired Brett Podolsky to represent me after I was charged with my second felony. This time a large drug possession case. I was terrified that I was headed to prison and needed a top notch lawyer to fight for me. After meeting with several lawyers I hired Podolsky. Best decision of my life. After investigating the case and reviewing the reports and body cam videos he told me that it was an illegal search and the police didn’t have the authority to stop me and search my car. After going round and round with the prosecutor they finally dismissed all charges against me and I walked out of the courthouse. I couldn’t be more satisfied with Brett Podolsky as my lawyer.

Brett Podolsky is by far one of the best and understanding lawyers out there. When my husband was wrongfully accused of being In possession of drugs after a house raid, Brett did everything in his power to get all the info and all the details to get the best results. They kept offering time and more time and he just kept rejecting because it’s not what he wanted for his client. After 2 years of fighting this case, on the day of the jury trial he was able to get the whole case completely dropped! He will work with you if you work with him. He will now forever be someone I recommend. Thanks Brett for all your hard work and dedication to keep our loved ones out here in the free world.

Brett provided counsel for an extremely complicated Federal healthcare fraud case I was ensnared in. I relied on Brett for strategic interactions with government agencies throughout the investigation while at the same time keeping my nerves calm and paranoia (it's real folks!) in check. This placed a tremendous burden on me and my family and without Brett's continual guidance, communication and negotiating I'm certain the outcome would have taken a turn for the worse. Brett comes HIGHLY recommended.

So to start let me say thank you so much for everything. After being falsely accuse of sexual assault I started looking for legal help. That’s when Mr. Podolsky agree to help me with the case. Now after 3 years of fighting with the prosecutor Mr. Brett made them drop the charges. Thanks to this man I can live my life the way I should once again.

Just to show off how good he is as a lawyer let me tell y’all about this time that I got arrested out of no where because of this case. It was right after Harvey and no courts were open. Mr. Brett somehow Found a court room to put me in and got me out. everyone in jail was mad because all of their courts were getting reschedule but not mine.

There is a lot can I say about my experience with him but saying that he is best lawyer I have ever met is all I can say right now. I still can’t believe it’s all finally done. I can’t thank him enough.

When a close friend of mine was wrongfully accused of domestic assault by his vindictive ex-wife, I provided moral support and character testimony if needed. The state seemed to have a solid case with photo evidence and multiple eyewitnesses, who were all related to the ex-wife - we knew it was all faked, but how do you prove that to a jury? Brett did just that, dismantling the state's case completely with thorough cross-examination, solid review of the evidence, and an incredible closing statement. I didn't even need to testify as a character witness. The jury came back with the not guilty verdict in under 30 minutes. If you have been wrongfully accused, you need Brett. End of story.

Brett Podolsky represented me in a major possesion with intent to deliver methamphetamine case. I was looking at a possible life sentence. I had been through two lawyers and several months of coming to court and the DA was intent on sending me to prison for a long time. Neither of my previous lawyers could get anywhere with the case. I finally was able to hire Mr. Podolsky and he fought the case tooth and nail. He investigated all the legal issues, evidence and the witnesses in the case. After he dismantled the State's case they had no choice but to dismiss all charges. I walked out of the courtroom a free man thanks to Brett's hard work. I would recommend him to anyone caught up in the criminal justice system.

Brett A. Podolsky is not only an amazing person, but also an unbelievable Laywer. I was charged with Agervated Assult with a Deadly weapon and Agervated Kidnapping, both of which I was wrongfully accused of. He beat all odds and pretty much everyones expectations by showing the Jury I was wrongfully accused of these felonies and that I was rightfully innocent, and they found me not guilty. Without him I have no idea what my life would have become. I am very grateful everyday for his help and confidence in me. Thank you is not ever enough to say to this man who help me get my life back, but Thank you Brett for everything from one innocent smile you gave back.

Brett was the Public Defender assigned to my daughter when she was wrongfully accused of Aggravated Assult and Aggravated Kidnapping of a Public Servant. He went above and beyond to prove to the Judge and Jury that she was innocent and got her a not guilty verdict. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the years he spent working on her case. If anyone I know every needs a lawyer in his field I will be calling him.
