Brett Berman Ruined My Life

Brett Berman has a bad reputation and I wish I would’ve done my research. I trusted Brett Berman to help me through my divorce starting in 2024. After I got a domestic violence restraining order against my ex-husband (before hiring Brett Berman), I was unable to go back into my home. I spent months i...n a one bedroom apartment with two kids and two dogs without any access to my finances. Struggling the entire time, I had no idea that all I needed to do was file an ex part to change my situation. Did Brett do that? NO, he used my desperation as leverage. Brett Berman never informed me of this and instead dragged the DV hearing out 8 months. The entire time he focused on getting himself paid from my ex-husband, instead of working on the DV trial. I can’t stress this enough when I say, DO NOT HIRE HIM!!! He didn’t prepare me for court, he did not show a single piece of evidence, police videos, photos, recordings or any witness… Nothing! He was beyond negligent. He is a terrible lawyer, has zero energy to fight and his carelessness made me lose everything. I am still trying to fight my way back to where I was before Brett Berman. Divorce is hard, but with Brett Berman you could lose everything you have.

Great attorney

Brett represented me last year in a child custody case. He worked through all the legal issues and helped me during the most stressful time in my life. He kept me well informed and gave honest advise even if it wasn't what I wanted to hear. He did an amazing job and I am happy with the outcome. I wo...uldn't hesitate to hire him again in the future.

"Anyone I have referred to Brett has raved about him. He is kind, compassionate, hard-working, bright, cost-efficient and his results speak for themselves. If you haven't retained Brett yet, then hurry up and do it before someone swoops him up."
