Mr. Berens was the most forthright and skillful attorney I could have ever asked for. Despite extraordinary opposition, he always went the extra mile in my defense. His performance, diligence, and candor as my attorney were far beyond my expectations, showcasing tremendous value. If you’re in the mi...litary and need a lawyer, you’ve found the one in Mike.

I had hired Mike Berens to assist me with an EEO complaint because I had previously worked with him as a government representative. During that time, I witnessed his ability to handle complexes where military leaders were unjustly treated or faced unfair outcomes due to others' actions. His expertise... and dedication in those situations made him the clear choice to represent me. From the very beginning, he demonstrated extensive knowledge of the DoD laws and previous court cases had and a deep understanding of how we should proceed with my case. Mike was always communicative, explaining complex legal concepts in a way I could easily understand and keeping me informed every step of the way. I especially appreciated his quick responsiveness to my questions, and his thorough preparation for my case. Thanks to Mike’s dedication and expertise I was able to receive closure. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a skilled compassionate lawyer.

Mike handled my son’s case which had 5 summonses, 2 of which could have been felonies. Not only did he get 3 dismissed he was able to get 2 serious offenses reduced to misdemeanors! When I was interviewing lawyers Mike answered all my questions and also copied me every step of the way. More important...ly he met with my son often and kept him on schedule with tasks that were needed and tasks Mike handled. I highly recommend Mike and am extremely satisfied with his knowledge, service and reliability with my sons case. He is the best!

Since day one Mike Berens has been absolutely flawless and helpful for my case. I was recommended by prior clients and could not be happier. He is a reliable resources in all things military law, and if he does not know an aswer, he will find it. He has a wealth of information at his disposal and wel...l respected by his fellow legal peers. Specifically, Mike handed the complexities of my case making the process as easy as possible. Most importantly, he communicates on time, everytime. He is truly a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to anyone needing assistance (in fact I have multiple times as I have had a working relationship with Mike since 2020). In 2022, Mike was succesful in getting my discharge upgraded unanimously to Honoroable (at a low % acceptance rate). Further, he willingly represented me as victims legal counsel when I had to testify at a court-martial, even though it was not neccesarily part of my personal case. Mike is caring, and genuine. I knew the minute I spoke to him on the phone he would be able to help me. I am grateful that I know Mike, whose character strengths are shown through his relentless work ethic, and genuine empathy for his clients. Thank you Mike for everything you have done and continue to do. You are a true professional, veteran and stand up attorney.
