Michael definitely made things comfortable for me and relaxed the stress I had during the situation. With his assistance, he made sure I was treated fairly and did all the work that needed to be done. And for that, I'm thankful and appreciative of his work!

We came to Michael with a criminal matter that could have had huge ramifications for our family. He and his staff had a strategy for success and they delivered. We were in constant communication and they made sure we understood the process. He delivered the results we wished for. We are grateful for his expertise and handling of our matter. I highly recommend Mr. Berg!

I was searching for an attorney for my friend and I found Michael Berg. He contacted me right away and set up a consultation. From the moment we shook hands, Michael was a true class act. My friend was in quite a bit of trouble. Michael was so diligent in his attention to detail. The way he handled himself in the court was nothing less then impressive. In the end Michael got most of the charges dropped and my friend was home in no time. He was honest, kind, and respectful. Not only did he do a exceptional job, he was very flexible with his fees. Michael A Berg truly talented and I highly recommend him. Thank you Michael for everything you did for us. A real nice person and a kick ass attorney. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

Michael has been my attorney through a very complex felony case. He represented me not only with class but exceptional expertise in the law. He settled my case far beyond my wildest dreams. Even though I moved out of state during this ordeal, Michael stayed on top of the case and dedicated himself as if I was seeing him every day. I was preparing to go to prison but his well executed defense allowed me to stay a free man and enjoy my family and life. He is a man of integrity and strong character. I was very fortunate to have such excellent representation. I would highly recommend him. He is an excellent and honest attorney.

Mr. Berg and his team worked hard to help us out. Our family needed a good Lawyer and now the future will be much better due to Michael S. Berg. Super easy going, very casual so don't be nervous. They are all business when it comes to false charges, proving your case should be dropped, reducing fines and showing you are innocent. I would be confident in hiring Mr. Berg for anything court related from a felony to a misdemeanor. Not a cheap attorney, but very affordable and the results are priceless. Don't mess around. Know your rights and have the best in your corner! Michael S. Berg and Jasmine will work hard for you!

Attorney Michael Berg is the best Federal Attorney you will find in Southern CA. He sincerely cares about the future of his clients and will get the positive results that you are seeking. He kindly asked early in our conversation to please call him Michael…..he’s just that personable yet 100% about business, (he will get the very best possible results). I live in NC and my Son is serving out a sentence in Victorville’s Federal Penitentiary. He is due to be released next year but he still had an outstanding violation of his probation and it was serious enough to give him and additional 5years after serving a 10 year sentence. He was very fearful that after release he would get picked back up and bought in to serve the outstanding violation of his parole. I decided that this required an attorney with lots of experience and one that could get the results we were looking for. Michael has over 30 years of experience in Federal Law so who else could be better to represent my Son? I looked on-line to see his track record, I did my homework with so much at stake he needed the very BEST; a hero in the court-room that would get the positive results that we were looking for. Another success…Michael got his case to run concurrent with the time he’s already been serving with no additional time added!!! We are thrilled and thank him for the work that he did and having the best attitude and demeanor of any attorney I have ever encountered…Look no further he is "The Very BEST".

I consulted with Michael long before charges were filed, and he did a great deal of work on my behalf BEFORE he asked for a single cent from me. When I did retain him, he worked within my budget, which is incredible, as he is certainly a high-profile and highly desired attorney in the San Diego area. Besides being my attorney, he listened to all my questions and concerns with therapist-level compassion and understanding, a rare trait for such a tough and notable lawyer. The outcome of my case was exceptional, despite my spotted record. I'm currently on vacation visiting my parents and planning a new addition to my family instead of stressing over a real possibility of prison time. Michael Berg is the best of the best. If you are looking for criminal defense, you can't go wrong with him.
