Brad is from Little Rock and is a graduate of Catholic High School, Hendrix College, and the William H. Bowen School of Law. He is also a graduate of the Trial Practice Institute of the National Criminal Defense College (NCDC) at Mercer University School of Law.

Almost the entirety of Brad’s practice is devoted to Criminal and DWI Defense. Brad is a trained field sobriety test practitioner and instructor. He was the first lawyer in Arkansas to complete the Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) course and the DRE Overview Course for lawyers. Additionally, he has received years of extensive training in pharmacology, toxicology, and forensic science.

For every year since 2010, Brad has been named a Mid-South SuperLawyers Rising Star. Arkansas Life and Little Rock Soirée magazines have named Brad among the “Best Lawyers” in Little Rock.
