I was accused of a felony regarding a family members funds that I was responsible for. I was not guilty of the charges that I was facing. I found Mr. Shorstein through his website. After meeting with him and discussing my situation, I felt relieved, and knew I was in very capable hands. Mr. Shorstein represented me competently, and effectively. Eventually, the case was dismissed, and my information will soon be expunged.

Unfortunately, he is out of the area where I needed him, yet, I got more help from him than anyone in this area so far. He listened and heard me, and he took his time very- very generously to explain things to direct me to the essence of my issue. In my case, I am a plaintiff in an embezzlement/grand theft case - I wish he would not be out of the area to represent me. But of course, he also referred me to another attorney who seems to be tailored for my situation just in case if the DA decide to lower the charges from criminal to civil issue. Most surprisingly, I felt embarrassed that he did not charge me anything. He is a ****** (6) stars of 5.

I came across Mr.Shorstein's firm online and submitted a question about a domestic violence charge I had just been arrested for. Mr.Shorstein called me that night, after hours, to discuss my case. He was very frank but was also very conscientious of my fears. Although it turned out that he did not cover my county normally, he volunteered to contact the States Attorney on my behalf to find out where they stood and what evidence they had, since my Public Defender was not doing anything. He offered to do all of this free of charge and direct me to a local attorney if it seemed that would be in my best interest. He eventually took the case and with very reasonable fees. He worked very hard to get the case dropped before they would file charges and worked closely with the prosecutor on my behalf. His guidance and experience was spot on and he did, in fact, convince the prosecutor to drop the charge. This was quite a feat considering Florida requires someone to go to jail and be prosecuted for Domestic Violence. Mr.Shorstein was always willing to take my calls after hours and on the weekends throughout the case. The money I spent on his service is the best money I have ever spent.
