I hired Carl as an attorney

Carl is a amazing lawyer who will fight to the bone to get you the best possible deal and/or results. His cross examinations are excellent. He is very sincere sounding and the type of guy that you want defending you.

my lawyer

Carl Herman is an excellent lawyer with a very knowledgable staff and it extremely trust worthy. He is all a great man and decent human being. He is someone who you would want on your side. I reccomend him for anyone who needs an amazing criminal defense attorney.

Great lawyer

I almost never leave reviews, unless the service was horrible but Mr. Herman did such an awesome job for me. His staff (Sabi) is so nice and knowledgeable. I was looking at some serious charges and both the prosecutor and the judge wanted me to plea but Mr. Herman believed in me and kept fighting to ...get me this best deal. His hard work forever changed my life.

waste of money

I rarely post reviews but don't want somebody already in a bad spot to make the same mistake i did by choosing Mr. Herman as their attorney. He honestly did nothing for me, and the only time he seemed to show any interest in my case was when inquiring about getting paid. On the day of court he bare...ly knew anything about my case. I wouldn't use him again even if he offered his services for free!! Seriously!!!!

If I ever needed a lawyer again ...

Carl represented my son on a pretty serious assault charge. Him and his staff was very nice (and knowledgeable). I felt like they actually cared. This being the first time anyone in my family ever had any problems with the law I had several questions and he was really patient with me. Only negative i...s Carl is almost never in his office. Most times I called he was in Court but Sabby, his assistant is also really nice and helpful.
