Best lawyer

Myles defended me as a child facing some serious adult charges. Nobody on this island could have got me less than a life sentence. Myles took my case, saved my life and I am a free man today. He never missed a hearing and fought for me for over 10 years! I ran out of money and he came for free. Never... asked me for a thing back just that I don’t waste my life and the time everyone invested to get me out. If it wasn’t Myles , it was someone from his staff , someone would always answer and he would always respond. I left my real name because I know how some people just upload fake reviews. This man is a good man, and a great lawyer. Owe him my life.....

Fair and Just

We contacted Mr. Breiner with my husbands case. My husband had already confessed to his crime and was facing 20 years in prison. Upon calling his office with 30 minutes I received a call back from Mr Breiner himself. He heard the details told me his price which was in realty steep but actually chea...per then what any other attorney would have charged. He was even willing to stretch out the length of the payment to help us. It not only stopped there Mr Breiner never once judged what my husband had done in any negative way, but took the time to really find out who my husband was and included me also. He took time to explain things so that we understood every step that would Be taken. He also was very stern with us if he felt we were going down a wrong path. His office kept in contanst communication and made sure we were aware of all court dates. Not only was he very professional and knowledgeable, but he was compassionate and understanding. My husband did not win his case without consequences, but Mr Breiner saved him from being incarcerated and taken away from a me his wife that loves him dearly. For this I would recommend Mr Breiner to anyone who is facing a no win situation or for that fact any situation.

I do not recommend Myles S Breiner

3.5 years later with 2.5 to go my husband sits in prison, and I give much credit to Myles S Breiner. He did nothing to help my husband, he did not keep me well informed what so ever, he just did not care. I could go on and on, but please do not hire Myles S Breiner. You'll be sorry.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I whole heartedly endorse this lawyer. I worked with Myles in connection with a difficult premise liability and police use of force case. Myles was able to quickly analyze, digest and organize a large amount of evidence and he was a huge help in coordinating our case strategy. I would welcome the opportunity to work with him again in the future."
