After finding myself in a bit of a bind, I was introduced to Lev Iwashko, as a possible attorney. From the beginning he exuded competence and wisdom in the direction he believed my defense should take. I have (regrettably) had several attorneys over the years and thus have experience with this and others to compare him to. The best aspects of Mr. Iwashko’s work can be summed up with just three words: Efficiency, Availability, and Strategy. Efficiency was the first thing I noticed with him. While he in no way cut any corners, nor did he waste any effort attempting hopeless motions or a multitude of random legal motions and maneuvers which would have not been a part of a master plan, and would also have been billable. Mr Iwashko was very up front about both the reality of my situation, and the best course of action to take. Availability was another aspect of Mr. Iwashko’s practice. He was always there in my times of need. It did not take days to get a response, even if I just needed to have my nerves put at ease, or I had a new idea to run by him. I was never left “out in the rain,” to worry on my own. I have had other attorneys in the past that would only contact me the day before a court appearance. It was a stress reducing aspect of Mr. Iwashko’s personality to truly care about both me and my plight. Strategy was another welcome change. Mr. Iwashko reviewed my entire case at the beginning and spent time looking at all the possible ways to construct a defense for me. When we next met, he told me all the possibilities, their likelihood of success, and TOGETHER we decided which path to take. I never once felt talked down to or had any lack of understanding of the process as Mr Iwashko took the time to explain every little thing I did I not understand. These three aspects alone should quality Mr Iwashko into the lawyers hall of fame (is there such a thing?). While dealing with the court system could never be called stress free, Mr Iwashko is a magician at reducing the stress and turmoil of the process. P.S. While his name is spelled Iwashko, the correct pronunciation is “I-vash-ko.” P.S.S. HIRE THIS MAN!!!! I cannot stress that enough.

Brett's firm was professional and provided prompt, efficient service. Highly recommend! He helped me get my Global Entry.

I was denied TWIC aggravated assault with a weapon from a dwi with my vehicle. My entire life revolved around the twic card. I contacted Mr brett o brien and he hit a home run and i got my Twic card. I cant say enough besides how well he put together my case. Very helpful and honest would recommend him to anyone who get denied a TWIC.

Highly recommend Brett. He did an amazing job on my appeal to get a hazmat endorsement denial over turned. He was very good on keeping me up to date on the whole process. Thank you for helping me further my career.

Excellent work in putting together the appeal of my security clearance denial which resulted in my security clearance being granted. Highly recommend his services.

Years of great help for a poor little ol' lady..

I provide the highest possible recommendation for The Iwashko Law Firm. I have worked with Mr. Iwashko on a variety of trademark and patent cases ranging from registering multiple new trademarks, litigating existing trademarks, and filing and registering patents. What sets apart Mr. Iwashko's work? (1) He cares about his clients and sets your interests as his. He works for your best result and does not "nickel and dime" you for every little thing. He treats large and small clients with the same care and respect. (2) Mr. Iwashko knows patent and trademark law. Period. Inside and Out. He has spent countless time explaining the law to me to make sure that we make informed decisions in some challenging situations. (3) Mr. Iwashko's communications skills (writing/speaking/presenting) are the best I have seen in the legal profession. (4) Creativity - every time we submit a new invention, Mr. Iwashko adds to the value of the intellectual property by viewing the invention from multiple angles and actually increases the value of the invention through making the patent stronger. Finally, in my first small business venture, we were concerned when our business name was challenged by another company. Mr. Iwashko guided us through a 2 year process where we ultimately achieved the most desired outcome.

I'm a small business owner that had a specific need for council with trademarking our name, logo and tagline. The process became complex as we began filing the appropriate paperwork. Lev Iwashko was amazingly helpful in obtaining the appropriate documentation, meeting crucial deadlines and providing expert legal advise along the way. Lev is exception in his field and I am grateful for his services.

I was so pleased with the professionalism and performance at The Iwashko Law Firm. I had contacted other firms prior, but felt I could trust them most due to the honest and knowledgeable insights they provided on the initial free consultation. True to the end, the initial strategy they presented was accurate and within the scope they had declared; and most importantly successful in the negotiation with the opposition party. Lev is an amazing attorney, he has a unique mix of first class knowledge of the law and how it applies, as well as a keen listening ability that made me feel extremely comfortable in him representing my interests. I would highly recommend the services of The Iwashko Law Firm to any party that is considering legal assistance of the highest caliber.
