Posted by Karen | May 07, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Professional and Personable

Mr. Bernstein represented me in a matter involving a traffic citation that resulted in a total loss of my car. I was wrongly cited to be at fault, which was not true. Mr. Bernstein assisted me in how to respond to the written documentation required by the Magistrate Court before the court date. Wi...thout him for that consultation, my case might not have gone so well for me. Before the court hearing, he advised me how to respond to the magistrate judge. This was also very beneficial. His questioning of the other party to the case was the clincher. The judge found that I was not guilty of the charge. Mr. Bernstein was very personable and professional in my time of need. I trusted him judgement and no matter what the outcome would be, I did the right thing with him by my side.

Fantastic Lawyer

I have used Joe on multiple occasions for a personal injury claim and my divorce. He was nothing short of professional, honest and had my best interest at heart. Joe gives you all the facts up front, your options and walks you through step by step of what you can expect to happen. I highly recommend ...Joe, and if the need arises I will be seeking his services again.

Thanks, He responded to all of my concerns with patience and understanding. I had a wonderful experience; Joe took the time answering questions concerning my case from my very first phone call till my case was concluded.

Great Experience

I hired Joe to set up my business and to make sure that all paperwork with liability forms and waivers were correct. He did an exceptional job and did everything swift and pain free for me. A year and a half later I then had him review my lease and we did it pain free and was a great person to work w...ith!

Client

I was referred to Attorney Bernstein from a friend. After meeting with him I hired him to represent me. Attorney Bernstein was a honest, professional and very easy to talk to Attorney. Every time I had questions or concerns he was always there for me and answered them in a timely manner. If myself or... a friend or family member ever needed an attorney, l would highly recommend him.
