PAUL REINSTEIN IS THE BEST ATTORNEY IN DC/VD/MD
Paul Reinstein is the best attorney in the DC/VA/MD area. I was in a dire strait situation with all odds against me. Many attorneys turned down representing me telling me that I was in a "no win" situation. That was until I found Mr Reinstein. He was not only willing to help but I could feel his compassion for my situation. Immediately he and his fantastic staff went into motion. They were not just hard workers and knowledgeable but they were extremely kind and caring.. Paul, in the courtroom is a powerhouse. He not only knows the law so well, his cross examination cannot be touched!! He knew every angle of my case and researched every aspect so that the opposing party could be no match for us. I like the fact that he not only thinks how we will proceed but how the opposing party will as well. Against all odds, I won the case many attorneys told me I had no chance of winning. I truly believe I wouldn't have been able to cross the hurdle without Mr Reinstein.. Additionally it was nice seeing the other attorneys in the courthouse giving him so much respect. That is because they all knew like I did, he was the best. All I can say is if your looking for the best and you want to win, even if the odds are against you, Paul Reinstein is your answer…. Thank you Paul and your wonderful staff. Now I can begin my new life with a smile…..

Thank You
I was immediately impressed with Mr. Reinstein's intimate knowledge of the law and his work with the Maryland Legislature on Family Law. My divorce quickly turned into a custody battle and as anxious as I was I felt very confident with Mr. Reinstein handling my case. Prior to Mr. Reinstein, I had another attorney representing me that did not work out well. I very quickly realized the difference between a good attorney and a bad attorney. Mr. Reinstein is clearly passionate about what he does and I can not thank him enough for his help.
