Tom Briody is God’s gift for anyone in need of an attorney. We knew no one in Rhode Island when we suddenly had need of legal services and found Tom on a website like this one. Based on his outstanding recommendations we decided to contact him. We called Tom on Monday morning and met for a consultation on the same day. Tom won our confidence in the initial consultation with his thorough and completely honest explanation of possible outcomes and how he wanted to handle the case. Tom is always very careful to tell you what could happen, what he will try to make happen and the likelihood of both. Tom is very conscientious with how he spends his time (your money). Tom hired a private investigator to begin gathering information and interviewing witnesses the same day we hired him. Tom skillfully built a solid defense based on facts and evidence and used it to successfully negotiate a favorable settlement with the district attorney. Tom is not only a great attorney but a good person as well. Tom’s sincere interest in my son’s wellbeing helped provide my son with the direction he needed to make positive changes in his life. We are extremely grateful for Tom’s caring dedication, perseverance and intelligence.

Have no doubts when you hire Tom Briody to defend yourself or your family! You will get an honest, experienced and dedicated attorney! We hired Tom sight unseen so to speak. We knew nothing about him but he was recommended by an attorney in our home state and we needed an attorney right away. It turned out to be the best decision we could have made! He worked tirelessly with us for several years and we will always be grateful for his knowledge of the law and his hard work. He has years of experience, is extremely honest and very dedicated. He goes above and beyond in all that he does for his clients and, it is our fervent opinion that he was able to obtain the best outcome possible for us in a very high profile, high stress case. He is just a GREAT ATTORNEY and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best representation in court.

Excellent lawyer to have on your side
Mr. Briody had the perfect blend of warmth, professionalism, and expertise. He was also clearly respected by his colleagues and associates in the court. Tom kept me well informed of the proceedings, my options, and possible outcomes throughout the course of my case. He never seemed too busy to communicate if I had concerns and I never felt like I was just a means to paycheck. I felt respected as an individual and I felt a genuine sense of concern and interest in improving my particular situation. Mr. Briody achieved the best imaginable outcome for me, I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Continues to be a top notch lawyer
This is an update to a review I wrote some years ago. After getting an unusually good outcome on my case Mr. Briody is now helping me understand and navigate the process of expungement. He has been gracious, warm and extremely helpful. I am very glad to have worked with him and highly recommend him.
