Beyond my expectations.

Over the last few years through some very regrettable behavior on my part, I not once, but twice was facing the unfortunate, stressful, and downright terrifying prospect of being sent to the Department of Corrections for several years. It was only through Tom’s and his capable staffs dedication and i...mpressive legal knowledge and skill while navigating the local judicial system that I have been fortunate enough to retain my freedom and current living situation close to my family. I can not express how grateful and fortunate I am for all Tom, Pam, and the rest of the staff has done for me. Even when the situation looked hopeless to me, Tom remained dedicated and compassionate to securing the best possible outcome. I am proud to have Tom not only as my attorney, but also now a close and dear friend. I would highly recommend The Silverman Law Office to anyone in need of an attorney who will not just treat you as a client, but as someone who genuinely cares about your situation.

Professionalism and Integrity

I reached out to Tom with a very complicated case. As many of these reviews, I was in a desperate situation. Tom listened and represented me with the utmost professionalism and integrity. The negotiations with the DA and the Judge were always on point and awarded me the best outcome possible. Pam..., his office manager, was also crucial for the success in my case. I am grateful I hired Tom to represent me, allowing me to get my life back on track.

Outstanding

I hired Tom Silverman to assist in a temporary restraining order issue. A magistrate had granted a TRO against me based on an affidavit containing many lies, after I confronted a neighbor who had been stealing irrigation water from my wife and I. After lying in his affidavit and lying in another he...aring, Tom was able to get my accuser to admit that he'd lied twice under oath. Once exposed as a liar, the restraining order was not made permanent, and the DA is now investigating the person for felony perjury. This outcome was spectacular and made possible by Tom's excellent cross examination techniques. I will be forever grateful to Tom and his staff for their assistance during this time, and for showing the judge what I knew all along-I'd not done the things I was accused of. Tom is an incredible attorney, but more importantly he's a kind person who really cared about me, and saw the injustice I was experiencing.

A really good lawer.

Thomas D Silverman is a honest hard working lawer, who earned my trust and admiration through his diligence and dedication to me and my case. I could not be happier with the outcome. Tom and his team, worked hard to present a detailed and well informed case, which in the end, led to a win for both o...f us. He and his team are exceptional at their jobs, and truly cared. And when dealing with life changing and often high stress scenarios, you want to know you have the best.

The Suited Savior

Beyond rock bottom, I was faced and charged with a felony DUI and looking at prison time. I've known Tom for many years so I called upon him in pure desperation as my real only hope. He formulated a strong and calculated strategy which he executed perfectly. I avoided prison and basically any jail ti...me and have been afforded a precious opportunity to rebuild all aspects of my life back to my successful past. All thanks to the Suited Savior!
