The Man for the Job

Mr. Brody and his team help prove my innocence on an aggregated child molest station case accusation from my ex-girlfriend. Who convinced a police department to arrest me with out any just cause to do so. I was in a fight to prove my innocence, my lawyer I hired previously before Mr.Brody couldn’t ha...ndle a case of this statue. I was facing 25 years if I was proven guilty. Mr. Brody was the man I need for the job in the very beginning. Without a doubt In my mind if you need the representation like I did, look no further. Thank you Mr. Brody and team for all your hard work!

I started eating and sleeping again after hiring Bernard Brody

I walked into Bernard Brody's office already feeling disgusting and defeated by the horrible accusation against me. Bernard, and his investigator Shannon, made my wife and me feel at ease immediately. Upon telling them the situation I had been handed, they were eager to get to work that day and immed...iately gave me instructions on what they would need me to provide so that they may get started. They shared my feeling that we could not waste any time. Every few days, Bernard and/or Shannon checked in with me by phone and gave me updates throughout the entire ordeal. Each phone call I received from them gave me confidence that they were not sitting around wasting my precious time. Bernard scheduled a polygraph test for me right away, and soon thereafter I did a psychological evaluation. Both tests came back very favorably for me and Bernard and Shannon diligently kept working away at my case. Long story short, in roughly 3.5 months, Bernard Brody did exactly what he said he would do and had my case dropped before any arrest or court appearances. I highly recommend Bernard Brody's services if you find yourself falsely accused of a sex crime.

Highly Recommend Bernard Brody

I was charged with a serious child pornography crime. Bernard was able to use his in-depth experience and skill and knowledge of computer forensics to prove the allegations against me were false. All along my nightmare Bernard always kept me highly informed and apprised of next steps in my defense.... I sought out the best attorney in this field because my defense hinged having someone with deep knowledge of computer and sex offense associated crimes. Luckily I found the best in Bernard and his team. I highly recommend him if you are facing charges in this area.

Child Molestation Charges

Bernard worked with me and my family to get bogus child molestation charges dropped against my son. He had a very short window to make this happen, he dedicated himself to my son's case and worked diligently with me to make sure he did not spend 30 years in Prison for a crime that he did not commit.... Bernard put the evidence in front of the prosecutor and took the guess work out of the puzzle which afforded my son his freedom and not have to be labored as a sex offender for the rest of his life. Thanks Bernard!
