Dear Yusim family:

I am so sorry for your horrible loss. Brad impressed me from the start as a truly incredible young man. I first met Brad in 2011 and was immediately drawn to his kindness, wit, intelligence and of course that smile! He was representing my firm but quickly established himself as a trusted friend. I know that there is nothing that can ease this pain right now (I lost my 19 year old son 3 years ago) and I am so sorry for your suffering. Brad will always shine brightly and every one who had the privilege of knowing him will forever be better off because of it. Hold tight to your family, friends and the love that will never fade.

Jerry, Sandy, and Amy, as you know, I had the privilege of watching Brad grow as a professional. He was extraordinarily talented in every respect. Brad always cut to the core of a controversy. When he wrote a brief, you were won over before the end of the first page. When he cross-examined a witness, he was tenacious and somehow secured answers that we could only imagine. When he presented argument, he spoke with extraordinary clarity and passion. He never lost his composure. He was fearless in the face of difficult challenges. He was a true champion for his clients and for the cause of justice. Beyond all that, he was loved and respected by every client and fellow attorney who ever worked with him. He relished what he did - and it showed. And year after year, through his relentless drive for excellence and willingness to challenge himself, Brad only got better. We will miss him more than words can express. We cherish his memory and the great privilege of having worked with him. Please accept our deepest condolences, David Bradford
