Brand Law was founded on a straightforward premise: clients need an attorney who understands construction and real estate, communicates directly, and treats their case with the seriousness it deserves. This isn't a firm built around lavish downtown office space, delegating work to junior associates, or billable hour targets. It's a practice built around getting results for those that make construction possible, without the markup.
Real construction experience means less time on basics and more time on strategy.
Many attorneys who advertise "construction law" have limited firsthand exposure to how construction projects actually unfold. Todd has practiced exclusively in construction and real estate law for more than a decade and has personally invested in and managed construction projects, including a new commercial restaurant space built from the ground up and extensive residential renovations.
That experience provides real context. It allows him to understand how projects move from design and procurement through execution and closeout, ask informed technical questions, and focus discussions on the issues that drive cost, risk, and outcome.
You shouldn't have to fight your own law firm to get answers.
Call a large firm with a question about your case. You will likely reach a receptionist, leave a message, and wait for a callback from a paralegal or associate who may not know the full details of your matter. The attorney responsible for your case is often several layers removed from day-to-day communication.
At Brand Law, Todd manages every aspect of your case personally. He reviews documents, handles filings, develops strategy, and stays directly involved throughout the representation. Clients receive his personal cell phone number because he believes communication should be straightforward and responsive, without having to navigate multiple people to get answers about your own case.
Clarity matters more than comfort.
Some attorneys focus on telling prospective clients what they want to hear. Todd focuses on telling them the truth. Todd would rather lose a potential client by being honest than gain one by overpromising. During your very first conversation, you'll know where your case stands, what the realistic outcomes look like, and what it will take to get there. No inflated projections, no vague reassurances.
That honesty carries through the entire relationship. If a strategy isn't working, Todd says so. If settling makes more sense than fighting, he'll explain why. If the other side has a strong argument, you'll hear about it before it becomes a surprise in court. Clients don't hire Todd for comfort. They hire him because they want an attorney who respects them enough to tell the truth.
Construction and real estate law are not something we handle occasionally. It is all we do.
A lean structure with a clear purpose.
Large firms often carry significant overhead, including downtown office space, layers of staff, and internal bureaucracy. None of that makes a case stronger, but it does increase cost and slow decision-making. Those expenses ultimately get passed on to the client.
Brand Law works differently. When you need a decision on your case, there's no committee to consult or approval chain to navigate. Todd reviews the issue and moves forward directly. You're not funding a reception desk or billable hours spent coordinating between multiple attorneys. You're paying for actual legal work. The result is competitive rates, faster turnaround, and representation focused on resolving your issue rather than maintaining a firm's image.
Selective representation means full commitment.
Todd does not accept every case that comes through the door. He is selective by design. Not because they're too small or too complicated, but because he won't represent a client unless he genuinely believes there's a strong path forward worth pursuing. That selectivity matters because it means when Todd does take your case, he's already invested in the outcome.
He's not just filing motions and running up hours. He's strategizing at night, thinking through angles the other side hasn't considered, and preparing like someone who actually wants to win your dispute, not just survive it.
