Hire Mr. Jeffery Bernstein!

My daughter hired Mr. Bernstein to handle all legal matters of her divorce. Mr. Bernstein handled my daughters case with the upmost professionalism. He responded quickly to all our inquiries and questions. He was very clear we understood what to expect. I can assure you no one knows their way ar...ound the courthouse better than Mr. Bernstein! As the case went through it’s normal process, it became very clear the more we worked with Mr. Bernstein we were in really good hands. We had to arrange a spur of the moment meeting that Mr. Bernstein was not able to attend. His son Brandt Bernstein who is another atty at the firm, met us and was very familiar with our case as we discussed our concerns and appeared just as knowledgeable and clear while communicating with us. It also became very clear all the office staff do their job very well! We were treated like family. Although we hope we never need his services again, we feel like we have a friend in the family law practice! In my honest opinion, if you hire Mr. Bernstein you are greatly improving your odds of winning your case.

If you want to win and play dirty he's your guy

This is my exes 4th attorney he knows nothing about me and my son.. His interest are in my sons mother. A good attorney needs to encourage a client to do the right thing not continue to condone a malicious mother with victim mentality episodes.

Hire Jeff Bernstein. He is the best. Period

My soon to be ex sister in law is not a mother that one could admire in any way. She was a flight risk with my niece, she fights nasty. Mr. Bernstein has handles all matters regarding this divorce/custody process with honor and dignity. He is a family man who loves his own children and will fight f...or nothing but the best for your children. Hire him.

A big hearted lawyer who fights for what his clients want...

I called Jeff after hearing most police/firefighters exclusively retain his services and most settle for more than they thought was possible. I hired Jeff after our first meeting after I realized his major concern was my kids and framing the case around what I wanted. Sure he would stop me when I m...ade poor decisions, but in the end he not only won my case but also assisted in a brilliant chess game strategy which forced the opposing counsel, a "top" and board certified lawyer, to withdraw. All the while he was ethical and fighting against an unethical counsel, especially in terms of charging clients! One word on his personality, everyone in the court house seemed to love and know him whether authentic or not. I don't see many lawyers making a point to talk to each other or any who 'really' know the judges. This means to his client that they will have an advantage of knowing what to expect when they walk into the courtroom, and that can make or break a trial. When it comes to jury trials however, Jeff is the attorney you really want. Check out his record... A last note, I was hesitant to hire Jeff at one point due to some angry online reviews. In the end I found that the ones that were reviewing him were actually his client's ex-spouses, and that speaks volumes to me. You will also find some reviews which are more like comments to previous reviews, and can tell there is an attempt to hurt the lawyer that beat them in court. Keep in mind that most sites do not censor their reviews (like Amazon fails to do) so people can anonymously get away with slander. This site has a clause that "reviews containing unsupported accusations will not be approved". He will always be on retainer if there are any additional issues from this divorce.

"I endorse Jeffrey Bernstein as an extremely professional family law attorney. I have several clients that were also past clients of Jeff and I was impressed as they all speak very highly of him and rave about their case results. I do not get over to the civil side of the courthouse often but I have seen him in court, he was confident and well spoken. It was clear that the other attorneys, judges, and court personnel treated him with great respect. I have discussed legal matters with him and was impressed by his in depth knowledge. If I had a family member that needed a good family law attorney, I would highly recommend Jeffery Bernstein."
