Brian Weiss
Is licensed to practice law in Georgia and Colorado. He leads an active Colorado lifestyle — biking, and hiking, and spending a lot of time in Summit county. As a young lawyer, he worked for insurance companies and their interests, at which time he became knowledgeable about various insurance companies’ policies and tricks. He focuses on all aspects of his client’s situation including whether adequate medical evaluation and care has been provided to his clients, and tried to make sure that occurs.
He loves to try cases, and although many of his cases settle quickly, Brian will often try cases when he knows an insurance company is being unreasonable. Brian lives in Lakewood, Colorado and is able to make time to meet with clients at their homes or at the office on weekends or evenings. As a result, he strives to make the legal services of the firm both rewarding and convenient for clients.
In addition to working hard, Brian plays hard. As an avid cyclist, he specializes in bicycle cases and represents the Bike Law network in Colorado, he often commutes to work on his bicycle and can be found mountain or road biking most weekends. Brian also skis and runs on a regular basis, knowing that physical stamina is important to trial work.
