I have worked with Mike since the summer of 2017 in the JAG Corps of the Washington National Guard. His skill and knowledge of all facets of the military system is beyond compare. He keeps his finger on the pulse of what commanders are thinking and feeling, and uses that to great effect for his clients. I am proud to call him my mentor.

I endorse Mike Berens. As an instructor at the Air Force JAG school, Mike was entrusted with teaching the next generation of Air Force defense counsel how to effectively represent clients. He is always professional and competent. A client could not ask for better representation.

I regularly tried cases against Mike Berens for a year and a half, and found him to be an exceptional defense attorney. He cared deeply about his clients and got great results. He had multiple full acquittals. He was also selected for a highly competitive litigation teaching spot as a follow-on assignment, which is a testament to his courtroom gifts. I would endorse him to any military or criminal law client!

Mr. Berens is an exceptional lawyer. I watched him supervise and co-counsel a young military lawyer at a discharge board hearing. Mr. Berens superior litigation skills resulted in a favorable outcome for his client on a very challenging case. His honesty, intellect and zealous advocacy make him an easy choice to refer family and friends.

Michael is an extremely talented and respected attorney in the legal community with a well earned reputation for being a fierce warrior in the courtroom. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer who truly cares about protecting the rights of his clients and getting them the most favorable result possible.

Mike is the right kind of lawyer. He is smart, he is thoughtful and deliberate, he is reasonable and fair. I first met Mike when I was legal advisor (judge) on a discharge board and he was the recorder (prosecutor). I was so impressed by his work that when he became available for hire I was very happy he chose the Washington Air National Guard. We now have him part time where he runs the legal office for a large diverse wing. As the HQ JAG I am very confident legal services at the wing are well managed under Mike’s careful, focused eye. You can’t go wrong with Mike.

In all those years, Mike has always been a consummate professional who excels at communicating with different people in numerous different settings. Whether he is dealing with a client, opposing counsel or a judge, I have no doubt about Mike's ability to make a strong connection, while being courteous, respectful and persuasive. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking representation of any kind.
