Highly recommend!

I recently had to help my mother navigate her way through what could have been a very costly traffic violation. As part of the process we retained Daniel Berger. Not only was he easily accessible via phone he took the time to explain step by step the process to ease her fears. Most importantly, on th...e court date, everything went exactly as he assured her it would! We would highly recommend Daniel Berger for his exemplary service in all regards.

Highly recommend

I hired Mr. Berger and can highly recommend him. He explained our options and the possible outcomes. We had to go to court twice and online court once. He represented us very professionally and got the charges dismissed. Hopefully I won’t need his services again but if I did I would definitely want h...im to represent me

Great service

I got a ticket for not using a turn signal in beach haven west from a cop that was sitting waiting for people giving out tickets right and left. The ticket had 2-4 points associated with it and I was not having that. In the mail came at least 12 advertisements for various lawyers some more expensive ...some less expensive but his own phone number was on the ad and he picked up the phone by the second ring and was very helpful. Most other ads were for a group and you couldn’t talk with the lawyer directly till you payed and hired them. The cheapest ad was for $200 and I got on line with a robot and I just hung up. That’s why I went with Daniel Berger even though his fee wasn’t the lowest but was still the third cheapest of 12 people and picked up the phone himself to answer all my questions.
