Best Lawyer of the Year 2019 Honoree
Brett Schreiber received his law degree at Thomas Jefferson School of Law, where he graduated cum laude.
U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers, have just awarded Brett Schreiber, partner at San Diego Based Thornes Bartolotta McGuire, among highly selected Top Lawyers of the?Year for 2019.
As a young and highly accomplished law partner, Schreiber’s areas of practice include mass torts, personal injury, medical malpractice and condemnation.
In only his fourth year of practice he earned recognition as one of San Diego’s Top Attorneys, perhaps the youngest person to do so. He proceeded to serve as the youngest president in the history of the Consumer Attorneys of San Diego (CASD) and continues to serve on the CASD Foundation Board. Schreiber also sits on the Board of Governors of Consumer Attorneys of California.
Under his leadership CASD has organized teach-ins in low income schools putting on mock trials to show how the legal system works. Some of his other creative projects include collecting gently used office supplies from law firms for redistribution to school children in under privileged countries, and collecting used cell phones and smart phones so they can be repurposed and donated to health care providers in sub-Saharan Africa.
According to his colleagues, Schreiber’s proudest moments are often found outside of the courtroom or an awards ceremony. Whether lecturing student groups on the personal rewards of the legal profession, speaking to high school students on the dangers of distracted driving, or handling pro bono matters for those in need.
Schreiber and his wife Shayna, a clinical psychologist, live in Ocean Beach with their four young children. They enjoy surfing, yoga, tennis, and family outings that always include their golden retriever, Maui.
