Best lawyer

This attorney was very professional and very helpful the whole process for my speeding ticket. She did an amazing job and reduced my charges and lowered my fine! I also want to point out that they have a very friendly secretary/ front desk. There was no pressure at no point.

Achieved the near improbably for me

Misdemeanor traffic charges can devastate an individual’s personal and professional life. They impact jobs one can apply for, places that can be rented, lenders that are willing to give mortgages, etc. In short, these cases are to be taken seriously, and you want representation from someone who takes... them as seriously as you do. I will be eternally grateful to BernsteinHough for their representation in my case. Without divulging personal details, I was charged with a misdemeanor. I am ashamed of the moment, but remorse alone does not solve the issue. Mr. Bernstein’s counsel and Ms. Hough’s representation achieved a nearly improbable charge reduction for me in a jurisdiction known to be highly rigid. Jenn, their legal assistant, remained on top of the things and documentation, which was comforting. Ms. Hough was extraordinarily patient and entertained my not-so-smart questions. She was incisive, composed, respectful of the judge, remarkably well-prepared, and compelling during the hearing. Her representation was the only factor that changed the case disposition from a misdemeanor to a non-misdemeanor which is a huge victory. A traffic infraction, at most, impacts your insurance for a couple of years, whereas a misdemeanor stays on your criminal history for the rest of your life, not to mention on your driving record for 11 years. In short, the charge reduction achieved by Ms. Hough is of enormous significance. Again, I am not proud of my negligence, but I am glad I had representation from BersteinHough, which allowed me to fix things without lasting damage. I highly recommend this firm as they have my utmost respect and confidence.

Reckless Driving 100+MPH

I was caught doing 100+ in a 60mph and Paula went to bat for me. Due to my driving record, I should’ve been sentenced to some time but I only had to do 1 day - which was actually 4hrs. - with 50hr. community service. Much better than what I deserved. Thanks Paula!!

Knowledgeable, Smart, and Effective Lawyer

Mrs. Hough presented my traffic violation case well and knew what information would best impact my case. She also held her ground and kept cool when the case took a turn with the Judge. She was calm, persistent, and knowledgeable about the traffic laws— my charge was brought down severely and I owe i...t to her!
