Mr. Brodnax is an outstanding defense attorney and a gentleman in every respect. He was recommended by one of this nation's most respected defense attorneys. I found that he has the knowledge, experience, and intuition to help his clients through the most difficult legal challenges. He has been a godsend to our family and a valued friend throughout the most terrifying and stressful period in our lives. I highly recommend him. You will not find a better attorney.

I am very grateful that Pleasant was referred to me by a family friend. He was very responsive and helpful throughout my case and worked hard to reach a favorable result. I would refer Pleasant to anyone in the DC area that needs a reliable and trustworthy attorney. I plan to work with Pleasant for all of my legal needs moving forward.

“My name is Ted, a community advocate, organizer and consultant in the DMV area. My work often brings me face-to-face with unfortunate community and family despair.  Such was the case when I was called to assist a family whose son was arrested on 5 different criminal charges—3 of which carried mandatory 20yrs to life sentences. Mr. Brodnax’s wealth of knowledge, networks and familiarity around the local and federal court systems proved paramount. Six months later, bar probation, an unforgettable hard learned life long lesson and emotional scars for the young man and his family, HE IS FREE!!” Thank you attorney Brodnax, as a community advocate, you are definitely on my short list of people to recommend for legal Help.

As an attorney myself, I had known Mr. Brodnax for several years when a member of my family needed legal representation. I didn't hesitate to call Mr. Brodnax, who handled the matter professionally and guided us to a successful resolution. I highly recommend his services.

Attorney Brodnax was a heaven sent instrunment in a time of true calamity and despair. He carries with him such a commanding yet caring presence that brings peace in a time of uncertainty and panic, as when I first laid eyes on him in my difficulty I felt assured that things would work out fine for myself and my family. Beyond being an excellent litigator, his true compassion and deep sense of empathy is what has been most moving in an already determined successful character. When looking for a representative, this is truly a hard find; but with attorney Brodnax, look no further. I thank you Sir, and my family thanks you tremendously as you are truly and instrument of God.

My name is Dwayne, I have been doing some soul searching after 15 years after meeting Mr. Brodnax. I made a mistake a log time ago and retained the services after a dear friend recommended him to me. I knew right from the start that he was my Guy. He made me feel like family right from the beginning. He was knowledgeable, yet didn't have to show it by confusing me with big law terms. I was facing 35-45 years based on the guidelines of the Law. I got Zero jail time and probation. Thanks !!

Attorney Brodnax was recommended as a replacement for a former attorney who was incompetent at best. Given I had such a bad experience, my standard for a replacement was very high. I was somewhat jaded because of the recent experience. Once I encountered Mr. Broadnax, I was absolutely put at ease. He stepped into a potentially life altering legal matter at a critical time. I appreciate his eagerness to see the system work fairly. I'm so pleased. I highly recommend his services!!!

Mr. Brodnax provided exceptional service on a probation violation hearing for a family member. He committed significant time, care, expertise, and thoughtfulness to what otherwise could have been treated as a "routine matter" for an attorney of his experience level. He kept us informed throughout the entire process and demonstrated great expertise and professionalism to achieve a positive outcome. My entire family remains grateful for his exceptional work.
