Mr.Bernstein is a miracle worker!!! When a case seems too impossible he is the best lawyer for the job! He is an honest lawyer whom will work hard for you... My husband was charged with DUI , due to Mr. Bernstein's diligent and thorough investigation and work, my husband's charge was dropped to Reckless Driving ! Without any penalties!! Thankyou Again Mr. Bernstein!
After my father passed I went on a downward spiral and self medicated with alcohol and got myself in double trouble. Two DUI arrests within one year. Alan provided a vigorous defense that resulted in favorable actions that left me victorious in the situation I was in. My family and will forever be grateful.
I had received a mountain of mailings after my DUI encounter. As this was my first, I voluntarily gave up some of my rights in speaking to the police. Not the best thing to do. After bonding out I consulted a few law firms. They were, at best, impersonal, with money being the most important topic. Not so much the. details of MY situation. Then I came across Alan Bernstein's mailing.. It was clear to me that he stood above the crowd. Just a gut feeling at the time, but I made an appointment. BEST DECISION I EVER MADE! I met with him personally and my circumstances were discussed in detail. I retained him and to make a long story short, he was able to have my drivers license restored at the DMV hearing and with his expertise, have the prosecution of my DUI dropped, Virtually all "evidence" the prosecution had was dismissed or disallowed due to the superb skills of Attorney Alan Bernstein. What else can I say? If. you need an attorney and ypu want your BEST chances in the legal system, Alan Bernstein gets my 100% recommendation.
I think hiring Alan Bernstein is the best decision you can make for yourself. I hired Alan after interviewing at least 4 others attorneys. Its the most important decision you can make to resolve your situation as favorably as possible for yourself. I am 100% confident Alan will get you the best result possible for your case. He is honest, ethical, and will work hard to win your case. He provided me with perfect advise and I trust him completely. He has the experience you need in your corner at this stressful time. I was able to relax after hiring Alan and focus on what I needed to do personally to manage my affairs. His fee is fair and worth every penny that you will pay him. My case was difficult and he knew how to handle all the complexities with great skill. The results of my case were excellent and it wouldn't have been possible without Alan's expertise. You deserve to have the best attorney in FL on your side.
Alan Bernstein is a very professional defense attorney, in and out of court. His integrity is beyond reproach and his knowledge of the law is impeccable. He helped me with a moving violation on a State highway where there were some questionable issues. Mr Bernstein addressed then all in court with the judge successfully on each point and I was found innocent of the charge. Thank Mr Bernstein! I highly recommend his services at any level of motor vehicle legal issues.
I have worked with attorneys in various specialties, Criminal, FTC, SEC, Contractual, IRS and Federal compliance law. Mr. Bernstein did an excellent job handling my case, lowered from a DUI to no contest. In addition I witnessed first hand lawyers of lesser knowledge reach out to Mr. Bernstein in the court room for answers which they could not obtain. Thank you Mr. Bernstein
Mr. Bernstein is a very great hard working lawyer. He doesn't sugar coat it ! He tells you how it is! He's very dependable ! If you ever have any need of a lawyer no matter what it might be for I'd call him 1st!!
