The attorneys at Top Gun DUI are great

I had a dui offense from years ago that I needed to finally clear up. I first heard about Top Gun Dui on the radio sitting in traffic, but figured they would be way to expensive for the average guy like myself. But I also figured it wouldn’t hurt to call and seek some advice and get pricing. So I cal...led and spoke with the man himself (Myles) the guy you always hear on the radio. He was super cool on the phone and asked me to come in and see him to discuss my situation. When I went into his office he was real down to earth and took the time to hear me out. He ultimately said he could definitely resolve my case and actually gave me a fair price. A month or so later my issue was resolved. I truly recommend anyone who needs a dui attorney to take a minute and call him- you won’t regret it.

Don't Hesitate to Hire Myles & Top Gun

I cannot recommend Myles and the Top Gun team more highly, and will be forever grateful for all they did for our family. They are incredible professionals that are also beyond understanding and caring. When my son was charged with a DUI, I count myself and my son very fortunate to have found Myles an...d his associate Matt. Myles immediately returned my first call over the weekend and walked us through what to expect throughout the process and options available. In an extremely stressful situation, they provided excellent advice, reassurance and legal strategy. The outcome was exceptional with the charge reduced to reckless driving without the pain and expense of going to trial, followed up with it being expunged from his record. They truly understand the legal process in these situations and provide excellent counsel on what to do, when. Myles and Matt were also always available to answer questions and talk through next steps at any time. I have no doubt the outcome would have been very different without Top Gun. This is not a situation that anyone should navigate without the support and counsel of experienced professionals who do this every day. And, Myles, Matt and the team are simply the best.

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.

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!

Posted by Mike | August 24, 2015 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

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!
