Grateful for Myles

Getting a call that your son has been arrested for DUI is the worst feeling. My son did every responsible thing. Has a fun night with his buddies, didn’t drive instead got a hotel. Was pulled over the next day and arrested on “suspicion of DUI”. I knew I needed a defense lawyer. I reached out to... a few. Then I saw TOP GUN! I called and left a message. I’ve heard TOP GUN’s commercials. Myles L Berman “Friend don’t let friend plead guilty”. I figured I would get info on their services. To my surprise and astonishment, I got a call back withing minutes. It’s Myles Berman. The Myles Berman. Well, I thanked him for calling so quickly and that as a father I was upset and this whole situation. Myles explained what he does and reassured me my son would get the best defense. I know the system is tough to navigate and there are no guarantees, but I believe that Myles would be the best. I was right! Long story short. DA rejected the charge, DMV set aside any action and my son’s career was not impacted. All resolved in 40 days of the arrest. No parent should go through this. It’s a terrible feeling. My son was made to feel like a criminal. But having Myles Berman on the case made all the difference. Thank you, Myles and you team, for your diligent work.

It was a pleasure representing your son. We were very happy to achieve the result we obtained in such a short period of time. Also working with you on your son's case was a pleasure as well. Myles

Myles Berman Law Firm

I am so thankful that I chose Myles Berman's Law firm. Scott Karpf represented me in court along with Obie Ozobu. They kept me informed and never hesitated to answer any of my questions. The whole team is very friendly, helpful, and compassionate. And I can not forget to mention that my case was a su...ccess. They saved me from the dreadful DUI fines and most importantly my career!

Great job!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your firm, specifically, Ms.Ozobu and Mr. Brar for putting much effort forward to get my successful driver license suspension set aside and a favorable outcome with the two counts of DUI. I came to your firm for the absolutely best council i...n Southern California and I have no doubt that I received that with your team. With both counts of DUI being dismissed, my driver license never becoming suspended and the option for expungement due to the terminal disposition, I couldn't be more impressed. In short, Ms.Ozobu and Mr. Brar performance was exemplary. Although I love your team, I hope we never cross paths again!

LIfe saver and is the real life Perry Mason

I would not be here today if it wasn't for Myles Berman and his law firm. Myles Berman has been nothing short of spectacular and his legal team is second to none. I've used Myles Berman on more than one occasion and it is because of his teams legal expertize and the skills of Derek Danielson that I w...as not cohersed by the City D.A. into pleading guilty to a crime that I was Innocent from. Derek Danielson took my plea deal down from 16 months in a state penitentiary and turned it into a not guilty verdict in an actual trial. When Miles Berman says friends don't let friends plead guilty, he means it. I am in his debt and he will always be on my Holiday gift list. All I can say is wow! and thank you for my freedom Mr. Danielson and Berman!

Job Well Done!

I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Top Gun DUI Defense Attorney, Myles L. Berman. He put a great amount of time and effort into helping me with my case and guiding me through the process. Overall, the process was pleasantly easy and my case was dismissed. I couldn't ask for a more ...knowledgable or helpful Attorney.
