Best of the Best!

I found myself in a serious situation in 2022. The first few weeks i had an attorney who had me feeling hopeless. From his perspective i was not going home for a very long time. By the grace of God i was given Mr. Andrew Alperstein's office number, among several others. I spoke with countless attor...neys and decided to trust my gut. After meeting with Mr. Alperstein i was convinced he was my best chance at returning home. One of my family's main points of contact was his paralegal Jamie, she was amazing to say the least. Jamie made my family and i feel like a priority throughout the process. Mr. Alperstein has a presence that can only be described as captivating in and out of the court room. His knowledge of the justice system is astounding. I believe that I couldn't have had a better outcome with anyone else. I have referred several others to his firm for various issues from traffic to accident cases and all had favorable outcomes. I owe Mr Alperstein and his staff of highly competent individuals my life.

Best Attorney in Md without question.. possibly even the best on the east coast

Andy has represented me 12 times and several others who I have referred to him. Andy had gotten unbelievably amazing results for me on every case he has represented me for over the past 10 years. 10 of the 12 separate charges, both felony and misdemeanor have been dismissed, and the outcome for other... 2 was a PBJ with 1 year of unsupervised probation. Anyone who he has represented agrees that there is no better attorney to have on your side than Andy. He’s honest, straightforward, and he genuinely cares about his clients. the passion he has for delivering only the best outcomes, clearly shows his integrity both personally and professionally. Anyone who needs “THE SHARK” idefense attorney for anything ranging from violent felonies, to simple traffic charges needs to call Andy immediately and at least hear what he has to say and set up a consultation. Lawyers are not the thing anyone should buy on sale or with a coupon. If I’m in court with my family’s and my future on the line I only want the absolute best lawyer on my side and I have given several highly respected firms and attorneys a chance to earn my loyalty as a lifelong client, and the business of my friends and family. Andy Alperstein is by far the best and he will be the only lawyer I’ll ever hire again… anyone even mildly intelligent will do the same

Super lawyer is all that i can say!

If you are in need of a criminal defense lawyer and you are reading this, LOOK NO FURTHER! Andy, is who and what you need in court. He is a PITBULL and will provide you with the most aggressive, competent, and knowledgeable representation that money can buy. Period. I had been arrested, and charge...d with literally 10 charges in one stop, including DIE, DUI, reckless endangerment, fleeing and eluding, driving 135 in a 55, amongst many other associated charges. This was the second time i had been charged with a DWI, i might add. Moving on, when i was stopped, I refused to take the breathalyzer test which had the police take my license right then and there on the spot. Upon obtaining Andy's representation, very shortly there after, we went to the mva court and got me a temp license until my court date. Once we actually got to court, the DA was offering a plea, which I was not impressed with at all. Andy and I discussed it for a few minutes and decided that a trail would work best. We then proceeded with trial, and while we already had a game plan on what the defense was going to be, Andy saw an opportunity and jumped on it immediately. He had this ADA so mad that if she could have, she would have thrown her things and left the court room. It was so bad that the judge made the ADA stop asking the state trooper questions, and the judge himself began to ask the trooper questions. Andy had her caught up on technicalities and objections that she didn't not know what to do; literally. As I said, there were 10 associated charges to my case, and she attempted to get the ball rolling, and perhaps tried to speak on about 4 of them, and was so flustered that she "rested" her case. Now I can't say if she forgot the rest of them because she was so upset or just gave up due to that same fact. At this point Andy moved to dismiss, and the judge obliged. I was found not guilty on all but ONE charge. The judge dropped the speeding at 135 mph in a 55, to doing 80 mph in a 65 or something very similar. He added no points, and it was maybe a 50$ fine. Even that, Andy tried to get me out of lol. The judge was not very amused by that and let him know at that point that we were treading on thin ice so to speak haha.
