Breeze’s ability to handle a wide array of cases helps enable Mills & Alcorn to compete with much larger law firms. However, it is his personalized and intimate methodology that clients find appealing. It takes an individualized approach to achieve the appropriate results for each respective client. Determining the best legal course of action depends on the specifics of a case and an individual’s circumstances. That is why it is imperative that a legal advocate takes the time to really connect and effectively communicate with clients. However, it is also extremely important to gain the respect and to develop a great rapport with prosecutors, judges, clerks, and opposing attorneys in order to ensure the best possible results. Breeze has garnered the trust and respect of his colleagues and judicial officers based not only on his bold and innovative litigation and settlement approaches but also through his personable and professional manner. It is this ability to effectively communicate with clients as well as other legal professionals that epitomizes the very principles that Breeze has founded his practice upon.
