Gary S Bernstein

Gary was recommended to me by a friend. I called him at 7 am one morning and received an immediate response. He met with my son and myself a few hours later in his office. He spoke very frankly to my son about his situation and really laid it out there on what the options were. I liked the fact t...hat Gary had asked me to leave the office so he could speak with my son. My son later said that no one was ever that frank and up front to him. Sometimes it is better when your kids hear it from another person. Gary immediately got my son into treatment. He is very knowledgeable about the judicial system, judges and prosecutors. He was always a phone call away to answer our questions and to reassure us. He helped my son avoid a conviction. He received a PBJ. I would highly recommend Gary. He is not only an excellent lawyer but a caring person always there if you need help.

He was recommended to me by a friend and turned out to be one of the best choices I made during my dui case. He was very knowledgeable of how the system works and the rights steps I needed to build a good defense in my situation even before showing up to court. On top of being a great lawyer he also... cared about making sure i was placed into the right treatment program that would keep the judge happy so I wouldn't face jail time. If you're looking to keep your license and avoid the book being thrown at you , I would pick him. I couldn't have been more happy with the result of probation before judgement in my situation.

Gary is an extremely skilled professional who is not only "good on his feet" but introduces angles to the case that the average lawyer might not even have considered. During my first telephone contact with him, he seemed very abrupt and somewhat aloof, but I believe that was born of a heavy case loa...d and time management issues, not of disinterest. In my case, which was a DUI, he quickly assessed the steps I needed to take immediately, which proved very beneficial. The day before I was to appear in court he focused full attention on my situation and was totally supportive prior to my appearance before the judge. Once in court, his arguments on my behalf resulted in a much reduced sentence, much to my relief. In addition to his legal skills, Gary is a kind and concerned individual and I would not hesitate to ask him for a referral should I need a lawyer in another venue.

When i made a bad decision, I was referred to Mr. Bernstein. My first impression was having a phone call answered on Sunday morning, and a consultation scheduled the next day. I was stunned by the speed with which my questions were answered (emails were usually answered within the hour), and felt ver...y confident in his knowledge of the law, the judges and prosecutors, and how to get me the best result. Despite my mistakes and unusual circumstances, I avoided a conviction, got favorable probation conditions, and was able to go on with my life.
