I would recommend Mr. Derek Danielson

I was represented by Mr. Derek Danielson from the office of Myles L. Berman in my DUI case which resulted in a Not Guilty verdict. He was up front and accurate as to how the trial would proceed and the possible outcomes. During the trail Mr. Danielson was always prepared and never missed a chance to ...make a point favorable to my case. He out classed the prosecutor and was prepared for everything the prosecutor presented and all motions made. I would recommend Mr. Danielson for anyone who chooses to fight their DUI arrest.

Don't hesistate to hire this law firm

A traumatic and unjust DUI arrest and a friend in the business led me to the Myles Berman Law Firm. Professional, respectful and aggressive are some adjectives to describe this law firm. I lost my DMV hearing, but my court case was dismissed. It did cost a Europe vacation, but the outcome was relief ...of stress, sleeping again at night, and Dismissal. That is Priceless. Michael Grahn set the course to dismissal and was Wonderful in every way. Derek Danielson was tenacious and Amazing. If you need a DUI law firm, don't hesitate to hire them.

Expensive but worth it

Throughout my DUI case which was a 2nd charge in 10 years, I dealt with several members of the Law Offices of Myles L. Berman. They all were very knowledgeable on what I could expect and what were my best options to secure the best outcome for my case. After deciding to not accept the DA's offer and ...go to trial, they negotiated a deal with the DA to reduce my charge to a DRY reckless charge which, other than a fine and a few points on my license worked great in getting my license back immediately.

Myles Berman Review

I received a DUI in Truckee, CA which is traditionally a non-starter for any leniency. I figured I was done until a Los Angeles friend of mine recommended Myles Berman. I hired him and paid extra for his personal attention to my matter. I got off with no real financial or other impacts. I highly ...recommend Myles Berman.

Client Experience

I am very grateful to the Law Office of Myles L. Berman -Top Gun. Richard Wagner did an awesome job defending me in court. The jury found me not guilty. I got my license back and the DUI charge against me has gone away like it never happened thanks to all the good people at Top Gun.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
