Craig Lewis Berman

If you’re thinking about hiring Craig to represent you in an employment case, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. I hired him to handle a wrongful termination claim, and what I got was a lawyer who dragged his feet, ignored urgent deadlines, and ultimately bailed when the case demanded real effor...t. Craig presents himself as an advocate, but in reality, he made minimal progress, rarely initiated communication, and consistently waited for me to push things forward. He showed no urgency, even after the opposing side made insulting settlement offers. Every strategic suggestion or document push came from me, not him. It felt like I was doing most of the legal legwork for a lawyer who was set to take 40 percent of the outcome. When I finally demanded action, after months of delays and indifference, he responded not with professionalism but with excuses and personal attacks. He accused me of being disrespectful simply because I held him accountable. And instead of handling the pressure that comes with litigation, he quit, citing reasons that felt like scapegoating to avoid responsibility. Worst of all, he withdrew knowing I was in the middle of arbitration. That speaks volumes. If you want a lawyer who takes your case seriously, communicates consistently, and actually fights for your outcome, keep looking. I would NOT recommend Craig to anyone expecting more than passive representation and thin-skinned excuses.

Berman Law Firm, P.A. was retained to support two cases. One case was a very nasty employment discrimination suit and the other was a severance issue. I wanted to express my gratitude for Mr. Bermans efforts and dedication for each case. Both cases were long and upsetting processes and Mr. Berman was... very generous regarding advice, clarity, much needed attention, and time. Mr. Berman put things in perspective and took all the stress out. I am quite thankful that Mr. Berman was there during this crucial time in my life. The advice and support regarding putting things in perspective restored my faith in the system as he worked everything out for me. Mr. Bermans knowledge and determination were something that solved my worries. I highly recommend Berman Law Firm, P.A. and Mr. Craig Berman.

Never consulted with me when going in for an offer with opposing counsel. Actually ended up siding with opposing counsel behind my back. Berman is sneaky and he's a liar. Does what he wants without communicating to his client. Never prepared me for a deposition, never kept me informed. He didn't d...o one thing for me except he took a retainer fee and he took 40% of my joke of a settlement that he didnt even earn.

Craig has represented me for over 2 years in a lawsuit regarding labor laws. I wouldn't recommend Craig as a good waiter or busboy, much less a lawyer. He is hands down one of the worst at communicating & following thru with his false words. "I'll call you back on that or email you tomorrow" he will ...tell you, if he does actually reply, but don't hold your breath waiting for that follow up. I never had a good feeling about Craig and tried giving him the benefit of the doubt, but after my case is finally winding down I really wish I would have seeked counsel elsewhere. Craig seemed to have taken on a case that was either more than he could chew, or he was just having a rough 2+ years as a lawyer. Maybe this dog had fight in him at some point, but that time has long passed. Save yourself a headache and find a different attorney, I truly have nothing good to say about my experience with Craig.
