Definitely Recommend

Mr. Berger facilitated a traffic violation summons with ease and expertise. He was able to reduce a five point liability to two points. I am satisfied with the outcome and the hassle free process. We handled the court appearance through Zoom with minimal wasted time. Mr. Berger was easy to contact ...directly and always responded to my inquiries. He kept me informed through out the process. His fees are fair, and you are left with a sense of knowing you would recommend his services to others, and would utilize his services again should the need arise.

Very knowledgeable

Daniel Berger explained all my options clearly and when I felt I didn’t want to go with a plea bargain due to the severity level of my offense he suggested another option to file with the prosecutor. It took us some time but we got it all situated with a very fair out come. I’m not one to get in any ...trouble so I was pretty emotional. He always had a way to keep me calm and always responded to my text in a reasonable amount of time . Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
