Where do i start. It was my first experience as dui charges that i had to face. I luckily came across Charles H. Shivers and i quickly went through so many reviews and i decided to Call Charles, answered and assured me that he would work in my best interest. I first contacted Charles in 2023 July. From my call till today Charles stood out be the straight shooter. He told what he can and what he cannot. But as time went passed. I just want to sum it up that Charles not only got all my charges dismissed but was available on every call i made and every email we exchange. Today i confidently say he was like family over this past year and stood by me at every turn. If you need help with your Dui. Please with hesitation reach out to him. He stand by you like family.

When you feel a Public Defender is not the answer to your problems. I asked myself, "who do I turn to"? Well, while thumbing through an endless amount of options I stumbled on Law Office of William V. Pernik. I was quickly invited in for a consultation. Almost immediately I felt the passion for my concerns regarding my case. The District Attorney (D.A) was trying to brand me with a criminal charge that I knew did not fit. The D.A. would not budge or listen to people or facts of my case. I was just a case # to them, they treated me as if I was not human. The Law Office of William V. Pernik very much understood my feelings, emotions, anxieties, and my fears. I chose Pernik. Mr. Pernik assigned a lawyer by the name of Mr. Ercolano to my case. At first glance, I was taken off guard. Before me, I saw a sharp dressed baby faced attorney. I was a bit puzzled. However, I was taught never judge by its cover. So together we rolled up our sleeves and went to work. The D.A. would stay firm on the decision to charge me, it did not matter the evidence in my favor. It was heartbreaking. My family and I could not even begin to start the healing process. Mr. Ercolano stated to me "We will not fold or agree to a plea agreement". Through it trials and tribulations. Through the sometimes, lengthy court process. Yes, we got the outcome that we were looking for! So much weight lifted off my shoulders. My family and I can officially put efforts into healing.

William was wonderful. The FREE legal advice he gave me as exactly what I needed to hear. I wish I have the money to retain these guys, but if I really do need their help I know where I’m going. Thank you again for you help and compassion.

William Pernik is an exceptional trial attorney and an outstanding advocate for his clients. He does not leave any rock unturned when he’s investigating his cases or when he is advocating for his clients. He is in extremely high demand because of the results he gets for his clients. He truly cares for his clients and goes above and beyond for them. He is extremely knowledgeable, personable and highly skilled at his craft. Highly recommend him and his firm.

The entire team at the Law Offices of William Pernik operates with a commendable level of professionalism. I would like to particularly mention how pleased I am to know that my former coworker, Rafaela Munhoz, is now part of their team. Rafaela has always been committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for her clients, and knowing she is there makes me feel even more confident in the office's abilities.

I had the fortunate experience to find the Law Offices of William V. Pernick after getting arrested in Santa Cruz for squirting a garden hose at my neighbor. Mr. Roland Soltesz attended my arraignment, and after meeting him, I felt like I made the right choice. I could tell he was a fighter and would do everything possible to resolve my case in my favor, which he did. His associate Dustin Ercolano, handled my court appearances and did a fantastic job at everyone of them. He is a great attorney. The staff is also a great asset, and their website is a absolute pleasure to have access to. There you can find out everything about your case, court dates, messages, ect. I now consider Roland Soltesz my Attorney for any matter, should I need him. It was a totally good experience, and I highly recommend him and his firm. Many thanks to Roland Soltesz, Dustin Ercolano, and the staff at the law firm. They are a pleasure.
