Hired Attorney

It has been quite a long time since I have felt the urge to write a review, until yesterday. I was caught between a rock and a hard place without representation with an early morning court appearance the next day. I scoured the internet for a miracle attorney with amazing reviews and client recommendations that check all the boxes. What I found was the Law Offices of Fernando J. Bernheim. Christina met with me the same day and spent over an hour giving me advice on how best to move forward. I highly recommend The Law Offices of Fernando J. Bernheim for their honesty, integrity, and superior knowledge of jurisprudence.

I came here for a high conflict divorce it is something that I did not want to deal with at this point in my life however their office guided me every step of the way. They gave me theri honest feedback and were not about over billing despite the other attorney doing the exact opposite. I am finally able to get some closure and i highly recommend their office.

I came to this office referred to by another attorney that found them to begin with and their office gave it to me straight from the beginning saving me so much money and heartache. Their office was easy to reach for an appointment and I sincerely appreciate Christina's time and skill in getting straight to the point it was such a breathe of fresh air I highly recommend this office for all your legal needs!

I give Mr. Bernheim my absolute highest recommendation. I was calling around concerning pro bono services with a list of law offices that had been provided to me--the list was mistaken about the "free" part, but this man still took time out of his day at 7:30 pm on a Friday night to hear my whole story, provide me with a completely free consultation, and give me amazing legal advice that no other law office I called had thought to give concerning my case (a demand for payment in Small Claims Court). His guidance and legal advice sealed the deal for me on methodology to beat this suit brought from a dishonest and disgruntled former client. While I could not afford to pay him to complete other legal services for me, based on his integrity and consultation alone, I would recommend this attorney to anyone--he was by far the most knowledgable and passionate attorney I got in touch with out of them all. (PS: He loves animals!)

Attorney Bernheim was great to represent me against a large insurance company. It was so stressful for 2 1/2 months dealing with this large insurance company on my own. After hiring him, I felt more relaxes. The attorney fight for me that even this large insurance company paid my legal fees. ( for the record insurance company never paid legal fees). But in this case they did. 🤓🤓😎😎 Thank You Attorney Bernheim. Rv

I was very pleased with the outcome of my child custody trial. Christina was very helpful and assured me she was taking care of things prior and at the trial. I as a single father, highly recommend her services. Just remember, "TO EVERY PROBLEM, THERE IS A SOLUTION". Keep up the good work Christina! Sincerely, Joe....

These FAQs include information about a lawyer's background, but do not evaluate their knowledge of the law, past performance on individual cases, personality, or communication skills.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

You should be aware that the information we rely upon may not be comprehensive, or frequently updated.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews
