Don't call Berkun

Called and left my information and explained my accident. Was told I’d get a call back, nothing. I call again and get transferred to Robert. Barely lets me explain my accident and keeps interrupting me. Back story - I was at an outdoor concert and in the crowd was hit in the back of the head by a ...CO2 canister. People were throwing all kinds of things and I was trying to leave. I did not see who hit me with it AS I WAS IN A CROWD. I was left with 7 staples and a concussion. Mr. Berken says “who am I supposed to sue if you didn’t see the person” yeeeaaa I don’t think I can help ya” … idk the event organizers for lack of security? Rude. Lack of compassion. Don’t call Berken.

Posted by Susan | January 06, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Slip and Fall Accident

Law Firm of Robert Berkun - Only use Attorney Brian Wood

Attorney Brian Wood handled my 'slip and fall' case with professionalism, integrity and an abundance of eagerness to constantly ensure that I was kept apprised with any updates. He readily took my calls or returned them timeously and always sought my 'go ahead, okay' before executing any ideas with t...he opposing defense. Over the 2 years of getting to know him, he became a friend, proudly sharing another side to him, the 'family man' he is, photos of his young family, including his wife, daughter and new born son. He is part of the Robert Berkun Law Firm, and should not be judged according to the posted reviews about this law firm. Fortunately, you will not have to encounter any communication with Berkun. I highly recommend Attorney Wood, and rate him with the 5 stars above.
