Ethical Lawyer who fights for his clients

I have utilized Russell's services for traffic violations on several occasions. He has always been successful in the adjudication process eradicating any points from the violations.. Driving a company vehicle, this has been a very important necessary outcome. Most recently, he was able to have my c...ase completely dismissed-- not even any court costs. I was so thrilled considering the circumstances surrounding the ticket-- it was the right thing to happen. Thanks a million Russell!

Excellent Lawyer

Russell took on my traffic case and get it dismissed. I called him again for ssuspended license once again for it dismissed no points taken away. He also went into the DMV and paid for my license to get reinstated because I was or of town. by far the best lawyer I've ever dealt with. Very honest an...d upfront. Fair with pricing as well. A lot less than those ticket clinics you hear about.

Saved the day!

I unfortunately received a DUI in St. Lucie County (which I would later find out is one of the worst counties to get one) back in June, 2016. The threat of jail time was high as I blew over .15; I needed an attorney to make sure that did NOT happen. I located Mr. Bernstein through a simple local Go...ogle search in my area and saw he had great reviews so I set up a consultation. I met with Mr. Bernstein at his office at a convenient time for me and he was extremely knowledgeable and honest with me about my situation. Due to the intensity of my situation and the county it was in he took the case on himself and gave me his cell phone number to contact him. After consulting with a few other attorneys (of which were significantly more expensive) I decided to hire Mr. Bernstein. He was very understanding and flexible with payment as well. Long story short, Mr. Bernstein was proactive with my case and I was able to have it settled with no jail time and still be able to drive! He is an excellent and well-trained attorney, I would recommend him hands down.

Pleased client

After receiving a "School Zone Speeding Ticket" Attorney Bernstein was able to have the ticket dismissed. I am sure this is more than I could have gotten on my own. He was recommended by the partner in the law firm where I work and I am very glad to have had him on my side. The best piece of mail ...I received was the letter informing me the ticket was dismissed. Which also meant no points and no court fees. For the one-time fee he charged me, it was money well spent. I never had to make an appearance as that was also included in the one-time fee. "Special Thanks to Attorney Bernstein and to his staff for an Excellent Job! I couldn't be happier!!
