Michael J Berens

if you are ever in need of someone looking out for you Mike Berens is who you need. hello all, I hired Mr. Berens back in April of 2020, we finished our case on march of 2022. I was acquitted of all three charges against me. these three charges where nothing to be messing around with which is why I ...hired Mr. Berens. from that date he has been nothing but supportive, proffesional and most important to me, very caring. this was no easy case, it had a lot of challenges, specially dealing with the military. that didn't detear him from his dedication to helping me and ensuring I was treated fairly and within the spectrum of the law. mike is a very smart and hard working individual who stand ups for justice and righteousness. apart from getting acquitted, the one thing that resinated with me and I could never be grateful enough, is that even though I was a paying customer, Mr. Berens never once treated me as such. his behavior with me was if I was a family member, making sure I was doing well, keeping me updated, making sure I was given the treatment I deserved by my branch of service, and many more to list. overall, I could never repay Mike Berens for the gratitude and service he rendered to me and my family. my family and I are finally free from this dark moment in our lifes thanks to mikes dedication and countless hours of examinations. I highly recommend his services 1,000 times. thank you mike your the best and you'll always have my gratitude. - Jose

Act Now! Don’t wait any longer! Mr. Berens will surpass every expectation. I reached out to Mr. Berens for legal advise regarding my military career. I was facing UOTHC for something I didn’t commit. Mr. Berens or “Mike” heard me, cared for me, and advised me right away! We then met face to face. ...At the time, I was hesitant due to pricing on lawyers. I reached out towards the end of the legal process; I didn’t realized it but I wish I would have contacted him from the beginning. If you need help contact him now! Mr. Berens studied my case heavily and intensively. Not only he had the patience to hear my stories, my complaints, my fears he also kept his composure on every moment of the process. The process took months and he was there, checking in, giving me updates etc… Alas, we were scheduled for court where we could show our innocence. Mike went into court like a LION. He showed detailed and accurate evidence, he memorized my story, he advocated for me like no-one else did, and stood by my side when no one else believed me. After 3 extensive days, Mike delivered. He saved me from the UOTHC. He proved my innocence! To this date he still helps my the legal processes that are following up; he is still helping me. I got nothing but admiration for Mike a veteran lawyer. Overall, he is Attentive, Caring, Passionate, Responsable, and the BEST!!!!

I was falsely accused of domestic violence by my spouse after I informed their command of their infidelity and suicidal threats. I sought out Mike for his expertise in military law. He consulted with me numerous times and gave me sound, professional advice and peace of mind. He walked me through the ...process, told me what to expect, and was there for me every step of the way and any time that I needed him. He is very knowledgeable, polite, and respectful, and he genuinely wants to help you through what is likely the most difficult and trying time of your life. I highly recommend Mike to anyone dealing with military law or criminal defense.

Mike was recommended to me by a senior NCO (Non- Commissioned Officer) who had been in the Military Police Corps over 20 years. In the course of his career he had to participate in or observe a large number of court martials. He said Mike was the best litigator he had seen in action. I trusted that... particular NCO's judgment greatly, so I called and set up a meeting with Mike. Within the first minute or two of our meeting I could discern Mike was very sharp, a natural leader, and that he exuded a strong presence. I hired him immediately. My ex-wife had made some pretty serious accusations of abuse against me and I felt like with the current environment of general hostility against men, I stood a very good chance of being convicted for some things I didn't do. Mike did a great job of pointing out the inconsistencies and implausibility in her story in a way that didn't make us look like we were just trying to attack the "victim". His cross examination of the complaining witness was very effective. His use of medical experts was especially potent during the trial. Mike also had a good strategy in how to deal with the younger and very aggressive trial counsel (prosecutor). There were several times when I felt like the trial counsel was getting the better of us and able to suppress some evidence that could have been helpful to the defense. In the end, it backfired on the prosecutor because the panel (jury) was able to see that there was a lot to hide about the complaining witness's character. Mike had the experience to know that would be the case, and kept me calm throughout the trial. In the end I received a full acquittal! Not guilty on every charge! The whole legal process from the date of the incident, lasted just over a year. Mike was always easy to get ahold of when I needed to talk through something and I felt like we were a team. This was not an easy case by any means, and Mike helped me and my Family get past one of the most stressful events you can ever go through, with an outstanding result. Thanks Mike.

I initially reached out to Mr. Berens when I was accused of drinking with my Soldiers while under General Order #1 in addition to my command was convinced that intercourse occurred. He provided sound advice and applied no pressure to retain him, he was more than willing to answer minor questions and ...provided some relief that things would be ok. After this situation worsened with my unit, I immediately hired his services and the battle began. I was facing a GOMOR and involuntary separation with fives years left to retirement and a flawless career. Mr. Berens dedicated every ounce of time that I needed to answer all of my questions and instill some comfort as I could possibly loose everything. The day of my separation board I would offer an image of the Battleship "U.S.S Missouri", Mr. Berens opened with a guns blazing and destroyed the prosecutors statement and lack of/no evidence. Our prep work days prior paid off huge as I beat the board and was found not guilty and retained. That day will be the 3rd biggest day of my life, and I couldn't of achieved success without Mike Berens. This man is solid, professional, extremely diligent in researching and understanding your situation and most of all he understands the military life as he wears the uniform himself. Don't bother looking elsewear, you want this guy in your corner.
