PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW IN DETAIL: Getting a DUI is stressful. The night of the incident I knew I needed a lawyer. I was so devastated I asked my sister to do some online research and tell me where to go. This was my 2nd time and I thought my life was over. She found Michael and said this guy has 5 stars-go see him. I met with Michael and given my previous experience with attorneys he was one of the most laid back and coolest people I have ever met. His relaxed nature made me uneasy at 1st, but later I would find that I needed this to keep me calm. Michael recommended a series of tasks to complete as a back-up plan, just in case the non-guilty plea went out the window. He made sure I was able to drive until my case was heard. The week before the trail I met with him and we reviewed the discovery information together including the tape. He gave me a topical overview of the plan but assured me he was ready to fight. The trial date finally arrived, and my stomach was in knots. His cool demeanor instantly made me feel better. The prosecutor wanted to give me a year of jail time after hearing wind of my prior. Michael smiled and said don’t worry. He was very realistic with me and said that there was a small chance that I could serve that sentence. Michael never lied during this entire experience. Somehow, he still felt hopeful. He had several strategies for multiple scenarios and as the prosecutor maneuvered through the case, Michael was right there with her. The judge overruled him quite a bit, but this didn’t shake Michael at all. With his knowledge of the DUI laws and simply being born here, his technical arguments impressed the judge. At one point, I even saw the prosecutors look of amazement as she did not expect him to be so skilled in the case. He was able to get the breathalyzer thrown out, from there it was a piece of cake. I walked away from a year sentence to having a ticket for 1 light out over my license plate. If you are reading this review, trust me look know further for a DUI attorney. Michael will fight hard for your case no matter how the outcome may appear!

This review is written to thank Michael Bruckheim and Sweta Patel. This dynamic duo worked efficiently and effectively to resolve a complicated case for my family member. Ms. Patel handled the administrative hearing at the university level, while Mr. Bruckheim resolved the criminal case. Bruckheim & Patel, LLC, treated us like members of their family. Exceeding our expectations … CALL THEIR OFFICE, if you need legal counsel!!! This was my list of expectations: 1. Prompt communications 2. Decisiveness & judgement 3. Excellent analytical skills 4. Research skills 5. Perseverance 6. Creativity to outmaneuver their challenger and deliver the solutions 7. Fair billing practice

Working with Debra has been nothing short of a pleasure. She is very knowledgeable in what she does and absolutely shines in and out of the courtroom. She helped me with my ongoing custody case that has been open for years and navigated it quickly. She keeps you informed of everything along the way. I would recommend her to everyone because reaching out to her has changed my life. She makes my case feel prioritized, important and heard. Custody is a very emotional, sensitive thing to navigate and Debra gave me the confidence and support I needed. I urge you all to reach out if you are in need of an amazing lawyer.

Very professional, knowledgeable and prompt. Divorce is never a good experience but this attorney made it tolerable. I will without hesitation refer family and friends.

This review is long over due. Mr. Fellner is the best of the best.He was there for both myself and my son when I did not know where to turn. His indisputable knowledge of the law and the flow of the court system gave me the confidence that my son and I would make it through this turbulent time.Mr. Fellner is what law should be about, fairness across the board. Thank you so much for all you did

Mr. Katz is very professional, responsive, and very pleasant to talk to.

Jon Fellner is a great lawyer who has been in the game for a while. He doesn’t beat around the bush and gives your straight answers. He was about to go on vacation and still agreed to meet with me in the morning for a quick evaluation on my case. He really took the time and effort to help me out. If you have questions, I suggest emailing him. My sentence was almost no damage at all thanks to him. Highly recommended to anyone who’s looking for a stand up dude. -Eileen B

Hiring a lawyer is rough, you have to feel comfortable from the get go to let someone represent you as a person and trust them. I met up with 3 lawyers before going to Jon in 2012. I was instantly comfortable and believed everything he was directing me to do. He helped me with two dui cases and a possession charge. He not only represented me well but coached and mentored me along the way. I was a young irresponsible 22 year old me who thought I was invincible. All charges with in two months, he recommended drug and alcohol wellness program thag was every Saturday for 28 weeks and AA meetings before court to prove I was taking great strides to change my habits. With letters of recommendation and attending this class both duis dropped and expunged off my record. I to this day reach out to Jon for legal advice .
