Read MoreI wanted an attorney who treated my case as more than a docket number; someone who would be fiercely effective but also highly ethical. I found all of these qualities and more in Attorney Fontaine. Brandon quickly became my trusted confidant, fiercest advocate and the voice of reason when I needed reassurance. He was strategic in his approach, confident in his delivery and effortlessly showed compassion to how all aspects of the case affected everyone involved. He is proof that an attorney doesn’t have to be the loudest and most brash person in the room to be effective. He genuinely cares about reaching the most favorable outcome for his clients. Brandon has all the qualities that one looks for in an excellent attorney on top of being a calm, humble and extraordinary human being. I will forever be grateful for his representation and empathy, and I would hire him again for any legal issues that I might encounter.

I hired Brandon to prepare a prenuptial agreement for me earlier this year prior to my wedding. He took what could have been an awkward experience for me and my fiancée, and instead made it a really comfortable and easy process. He emphasized to me that it was just our chance to plan our marriage and create our own rules rather than be bound by CT laws. He was really detail-oriented in his contract wording, considering all the scenarios that could come up over a short or long marriage, and thoroughly explained the legal reasoning behind everything. I’d highly recommend Brandon for any family law or contract needs.
