Robert first of all is a great person and excellent knowable Attorney. He represented us in a case and recommended the best outcome. I highly recommend if you are in need of legal services contact Robert immediately.
"Rob reputation is well known throughout the legal community, so it was without hesitation that I referred a client to him for the criminal defense aspects of a civil matter. He resolved the matter quickly and favorably for our joint client."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Berke is one of the most impressive, accomplished lawyers in his field. We first met when he secured an appeal and later an acquittal for a friend. I have been nothing but impressed with him since then. I am very pleased to be working with him on a case currently."
