Not worth 1 star as a Judge in any respect.

I hired Berfas for a simple matter. I do not wish to disclose it as it is private. But Berfas was nothing but unprofessional, greedy and arrogant. He didn’t take the time to review documents and statements. Constantly rushed things and didn’t pay attention to matters at hand. I would give a zero or n...

I hired Brad Berfus to represent my son that had 10 DMV summonses.

Brad was amazing from the start. He went above and beyond what I could have asked for. He did tons of research regarding my case, he drove all the way out to Westchester to court for me, he fixed my problem in a very timely manner, he responded to calls/texts right away, and he checked up on me duri...
"I have known Brad for over 20 years. He is a conscientious, hardworking attorney who consistently seeks the best for his clients. Whether fighting traffic tickets or navigating through family law issues, you are in good hands. I gladly endorse Brad Berfas."
"There are plenty of divorce lawyers, everyone knows it. Unfortunately, many just want your money and lack the knowledge to help you. Brad GENUINELY cares about you and your children. It does not hurt that he's hyper diligent and smart as a whip. Do not mistake his kindness for you for weakness. Just thank heaven he is on your side, because he will destroy the competition. His sharp sense of humor, competence and calm demeanor make this atrocious time so much easier. Though we often compete for similar clients, I am honored to provide this endorsement so people can differentiate who the gems and powerful advocates are. You cannot be in better hands than Brad!"
"Bradley is an excellent attorney who goes above and beyond for his clients. I most certainly would recommend him for any legal issue you may find yourself in."
