Brian Mittman, Esq.

Brian Mittman, Esq., has been working since he was 14. He has likely held at least two dozen different jobs and has witnessed people getting injured and hurt. One of the reasons he became involved with disability law is due to a very good family friend who has been disabled his entire life. Mittman has seen firsthand how this friend has struggled to keep working despite his disabilities. When the opportunity to get involved with disability law presented itself, Mittman was thrilled. He was eager not only to practice as an attorney but also to assist people who need to understand their options, what actions they can take, and what their future might hold.
