Michael John Berman

Before coming to Alpert Schreyer, I was facing one of the most difficult moments of my life. I had been charged with a 2nd DUI after being stopped on the wrong side of the road, failing the sobriety test, being arrested, and refusing the breathalyzer. I was terrified about what this meant for my futu...re and unsure of where to turn. I chose Alpert Schreyer because, from the very first call, their team stood out. Jason Miller initially took my case and immediately put me at ease. I got misleading information from other attorneys in Frederick MD which I found out from Jason Miller. I knew then and there I needed to go with Alpert Schreyer’s firm. Jason Miller gave me his personal number, answered every single call, and if he ever missed one, he would always call me back—no matter the time. The firm’s staff were just as reliable, answering the phone every time and making sure I never felt left in the dark. That level of communication and dedication was unlike anything I expected. Ultimately, my case was placed in the hands of Michael Berman, and I truly could not have asked for a better attorney. Mr. Berman fought tirelessly for me. He was prepared, strategic, and incredibly knowledgeable—someone who clearly knows the law inside and out. In court, he was nothing short of a superhero. Against all odds, he took my case to trial and won. Everything was acquitted meaning nothing is on my record, it looks like I never got arrested. Because of Michael Berman and the team at Alpert Schreyer, I walked away without a conviction that could have derailed my entire life. The outcome has given me peace of mind and the chance to move forward without the weight of a 2nd DUI charge holding me back. I am beyond grateful to this firm for their professionalism, their compassion, and their relentless commitment to their clients. If you’re ever in need of legal representation, I cannot recommend Alpert Schreyer and Michael Berman highly enough. They don’t just represent you—they fight for your future.

I had a great experience working with my lawyer. From the very beginning, his communication was clear, consistent, and professional. He always made sure I understood every step of the process by breaking things down in a way that was easy to follow. Everything was handled in a timely and efficient ma...nner, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. He truly went above and beyond, and the outcome of my case was even better than I expected. I’m extremely grateful for his support and dedication. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation—you will be in great hands!

Working with Mike after our car accident was one of the best decisions we could have made. He didn’t just handle our case; he became a trusted advocate who truly cared about our situation. Mike took the time to explain every option available to us and never hesitated to answer our questions. His e...xpertise shone through as he pursued avenues for compensation that we didn’t even think were possible—like negotiating with an insurance company we were sure wouldn’t pay out. When it came time for our deposition, his preparation and guidance made us feel confident and ready. One thing that really set Mike apart was his diligence in reducing our health insurance liens. This extra effort made a huge difference in the final outcome, and it’s a testament to the level of care he puts into his work. Thanks to Mike, we received a settlement that has transformed our lives as a young married couple. It’s given us financial stability and peace of mind after such a difficult experience. Mike isn’t just a great lawyer—he’s someone you can trust to fight for you. We’ll always be grateful for his hard work and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of legal help.

Michael is an exceptional lawyer! I really thought my life was going to change in a negative way for a criminal charge that I received. This wasn't a DUI or DWI charge, and so please understand Michael's legal counsel goes much beyond what the firm he works at is known for. He made me feel relaxed a...nd confident right in the beginning when we discussed my situation. And assured me everything was going to be fine and not to worry. Letting me know he was here to help. He even asked me how I was sleeping lately and said, "well tonight you you can start sleeping like a baby! Don't you worry, I got you." His experienced as a Maryland State Attorney certainly showed up in court by single handedly taking control of the courtroom. He even impressed the judge with how he handled business. After everything was put on record and approved by the judge, the judge expressed to Michael, "good job counsel!" Almost like the judge was reminiscing about himself when he was a lawyer and how he got the best outcome for his client. Do yourself a favor. If you need legal counsel for ANYTHING, hire Michael Berman. He won't disappoint.

I was in a single car accident where I wrecked my car. I was charged with DUI, DWI, reckless driving, transporting a minor, and barrage of other charges. First of all I would I like to thank the Office or Alpert Schreyer for appointing Michael Berman to be my attorney for this case. He was very com...municative and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. Now let’s get to it.. Michael Berman started by convincing the judge to grant a motion to suppress the fact that I refused to take the field sobriety test (which I didn’t even think was possible) in doing so, the officer couldn’t even state it in the case. He selected the jury with strategy and intention as if he were on trial himself. When the trial finally started, the show began. Immediately Michael Berman grabbed the attention of the court room, with his energy and delivery of the facts, the judge and jury were left in awe. Micheal was as confident and persuasive as he was knowledgeable. He destroyed the prosecution’s argument and absolutely shredded the officers testimony so much that he became a mere portion of himself. This case mirrored an episode of SUITS, during every break people trickled in to witness as if word had spread throughout the entire building. Michael Berman approached this case with knowledge and a swagger that can only be described as a real life Harvey Specter. Ultimately because of his experience and attention to detail, I was acquitted of all charges, fines, and tickets. I am CDL holder, so my license and job was on the line but because of the Office of Alpert Schreyer, especially Michael Berman, a burden has been lifted and I can live my life free to drive another day. I recommended 20 out of 10 stars. He went to bat for me, and I’m sure he’ll do the same for you!
