Andrea I. Bergstrom

As a person who had great experiences with Attorney Bergstrom, I strongly recommend her for representing your DUI case. She was very competent, knowledgeable, and meticulous. In October last year, I got my first DUI, which made me mentally frustrated and devastated. I had no idea how to cope with... this big accident and no one to help me with technically. I started to browse through the web sites and found a lot of lawyers specialized for the DUI. Of them, I met with 7 attorneys in person to be consulted over 5 days. I finally decided to work with Attorney Bergstrom, which I think was the best decision among what I have ever made in my life. The first thing that impressed me was her attitude at the first consultation. She asked me a lot of questions regarding my DUI case and my general situation, and took notes to grasp my case thoroughly. She was sincere and professional although I was not her client yet and it was just first consultation time. Based on my answers, she explained possible consequences that I could get and how to overcome this case step by step. Before I met with her, I had been disappointed with some other lawyers who had just exaggerated their abilities to attract a potential client sitting in front of them or who had not been sincere. She was different. She was serious and not a sales person at all. Thanks to her, I become more convinced that I could get through this crisis. During representing my case for about 2.5 months, she was brilliant and supportive as I expected. She responded to me quickly when I emailed her to ask something. Frankly speaking, I bothered her too much because I was in a special situation where I had to consider other factors lying beyond the DUI area. Having said that, she did her best to give me as much information as possible, which was so much appreciated. Of course, she was very skillful at taking care of the DUI case. She exactly knew what she and I had to do to obtain the best result. She provided me with sufficient information and documents properly at each step. Based on her lead, what I had to do was just completing my tasks one by one such as community service, some educational courses and so on. I didn’t have to worry about the technical tasks. All the time from the arraignment to the final sentencing, at the court I felt more comfortable with the help of her. Before each trial started, she explained to me what would be happening inside the courtroom. During the trial, she defended me effectively and kept helping me to answer the judge’s questions properly. After the trial finished, she let me know what I should do as the next step. Everything was systematic and reliable. Also, I am sure that she took care of a lot of paper work very nicely instead of me, which was one of the crucial factors that affected the judge’s final decision. Thanks to her, I could finally get the best result as painless as possible within the time frame I desired. If someone is looking for the best lawyer around to handle his/her case, I would strongly recommend Attorney Bergstrom without any hesitation!
