Worst lawyer ever

Takes your money and doesn’t even go to court for you. He is a financial lawyer and tried taking on my criminal case. The judge literally laughed at him. Years later I have had two lawyers and a public defender tell me my lawyer didn’t do the right thing by taking a plea. He got paid 5 grand to get m...e the same plea as a public defender would have gotten me. He made me plea guilty to something I didn’t do telling me I would go to jail if I didn’t. That was a complete lie. All he cares about is money do not hire him.

Brien Silber is a wonderful attorney. He is easy to talk to, answers every question. You can always talk to him directly even on the phone, not just his office staff. He is very competent,knowledgabe,helpful and great in court. He gets the results you want. He certainly did in our case.

Look nowhere else!!

Dealing with Brian has been a pleasure since the first phone call. I was in an immediate legal bind, the first thing I did was jump on google and start running down the list of attorneys in my area. Of course with my luck, it was 5:30 in the afternoon and no one answered until I got ahold of Mr. S...ilber, so it actually did work out well for me. He stayed in the office with me until 11:00PM that night getting everything situated. It was my first run in with the law and he was very reassuring of my situation and his confidence really calmed me down. He handled himself well in court and seemed to have great relationships with his peers and everyone at the courthouse. I was charged with a 3rd degree felony and 2 misdemeanors. He was able to get adjudication witheld on all charges and I was sentenced to probation. I was facing up to 5 years in prison, so I was extremely happy with my sentence of 18 months probation and no conviction. I served 12 months of my probation and was let off early. Being my first time in a serious legal situation was very scary for me, but as soon as I got to meet and consult with Brian, I felt a ton of weight lifted off me and I wouldn't hesistate to reccomend him to anyone. He did everything he said he would and fought my case like it was the only one he was working on. Thanks again Brian!

DEALING IN STOLEN PROPERTY CASE

VERY PROFESSIONAL, RELIABLE, & HONEST. My boyfriend encountered a horrible situation in his place of business and ended up facing multiple felonies due to Dealing In Stolen Property charges. Our world collapsed after learning his charges would merit up to 35 years in prison, if convicted. At the time... this incident took place I was completely unfamiliar with how to move forward in choosing the right counsel. I met with Brian Silber the same day I called him and felt very comfortable with his approach from the start. The very next day after hiring Brian, he went to meet with my boyfriend who was detained. Brian moved quickly and effectively with his knowledge of the laws and had him out on bond within days, despite my boyfriend being held with no bond. Brian kept things very clear with us, without building false hope or expectations. The end results were nothing short of amazing! We ended up with an incredible offer of 5 years probation instead of the minimum which would have been 5.5 years incarceration. Brian Silber is a talented Attorney prepared to take on any challenge. We highly recommend his services. Thank You Brian! From the bottom of our hearts.

"The tenacity with which Brian approaches cases is largely unmatched in the criminal law community. Both his personal involvement in cases (often going out to crime scenes, etc, in addition to working with independent investigators), as well as his depth of knowledge and professionalism are sadly, often unmatched in our legal community. HIs candor with other attorney's is well regarded, as is the thoroughness of his work. But perhaps i can most easily say this - If I were in a situation where I needed an attorney, I would hire him."

"I have known Brian since 1999. Since becoming a lawyer, Brian has been a passionate advocate for his clients. He is a talented criminal defense attorney, equipped to handle very sophisticated matters. His tenacious work ethic combined with an almost scholarly approach to the issues makes him my choice when referring a client in need of a criminal defense attorney. I highly recommend Brian and can personally attest to his high quality of work."
