Working with Mike after our car accident was one of the best decisions we could have made. He didn’t just handle our case; he became a trusted advocate who truly cared about our situation. Mike took the time to explain every option available to us and never hesitated to answer our questions. His expertise shone through as he pursued avenues for compensation that we didn’t even think were possible—like negotiating with an insurance company we were sure wouldn’t pay out. When it came time for our deposition, his preparation and guidance made us feel confident and ready. One thing that really set Mike apart was his diligence in reducing our health insurance liens. This extra effort made a huge difference in the final outcome, and it’s a testament to the level of care he puts into his work. Thanks to Mike, we received a settlement that has transformed our lives as a young married couple. It’s given us financial stability and peace of mind after such a difficult experience. Mike isn’t just a great lawyer—he’s someone you can trust to fight for you. We’ll always be grateful for his hard work and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of legal help.

Michael couldn’t have been more professional, accommodating, and knowledgeable regarding my case and situation. I couldn’t have been more at ease with my interactions with him, and I can’t recommend him enough.

Michael is an exceptional lawyer! I really thought my life was going to change in a negative way for a criminal charge that I received. This wasn't a DUI or DWI charge, and so please understand Michael's legal counsel goes much beyond what the firm he works at is known for. He made me feel relaxed and confident right in the beginning when we discussed my situation. And assured me everything was going to be fine and not to worry. Letting me know he was here to help. He even asked me how I was sleeping lately and said, "well tonight you you can start sleeping like a baby! Don't you worry, I got you." His experienced as a Maryland State Attorney certainly showed up in court by single handedly taking control of the courtroom. He even impressed the judge with how he handled business. After everything was put on record and approved by the judge, the judge expressed to Michael, "good job counsel!" Almost like the judge was reminiscing about himself when he was a lawyer and how he got the best outcome for his client. Do yourself a favor. If you need legal counsel for ANYTHING, hire Michael Berman. He won't disappoint.

I was in a single car accident where I wrecked my car. I was charged with DUI, DWI, reckless driving, transporting a minor, and barrage of other charges. First of all I would I like to thank the Office or Alpert Schreyer for appointing Michael Berman to be my attorney for this case. He was very communicative and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. Now let’s get to it.. Michael Berman started by convincing the judge to grant a motion to suppress the fact that I refused to take the field sobriety test (which I didn’t even think was possible) in doing so, the officer couldn’t even state it in the case. He selected the jury with strategy and intention as if he were on trial himself. When the trial finally started, the show began. Immediately Michael Berman grabbed the attention of the court room, with his energy and delivery of the facts, the judge and jury were left in awe. Micheal was as confident and persuasive as he was knowledgeable. He destroyed the prosecution’s argument and absolutely shredded the officers testimony so much that he became a mere portion of himself. This case mirrored an episode of SUITS, during every break people trickled in to witness as if word had spread throughout the entire building. Michael Berman approached this case with knowledge and a swagger that can only be described as a real life Harvey Specter. Ultimately because of his experience and attention to detail, I was acquitted of all charges, fines, and tickets. I am CDL holder, so my license and job was on the line but because of the Office of Alpert Schreyer, especially Michael Berman, a burden has been lifted and I can live my life free to drive another day. I recommended 20 out of 10 stars. He went to bat for me, and I’m sure he’ll do the same for you!

I was charged with DUI. I am personally familiar with the partners of Michael’s firm, Alpert & Schreyer, and felt confident that they would be the most experienced and qualified attorneys to assist me during this very difficult situation. I truly believe the firm put their best man on my case. A consummate professional. Michael was indeed knowledgeable about the process I was engaging in and gave me clear direction regarding what I needed to do before going to court. He had personal relationships with the members of the court. It was obvious he was highly respected. Michael gave me excellent advice and went to court with me twice. At our second appearance, Michael met with the prosecutor and the charges against me were subsequently dropped. I do not know if another attorney could have been better in helping my case. Since this case I feel as though I have a second chance, something I didn’t think existed anymore. With lessons learned I am grateful for Michael and his team.

When I got my first DUI, Micheal was the man who walked me through all of my charges and the homework given to me was essential in mitigating my case from a jail-able offense to a year of unsupervised probation. Afterwards, any time I had a question regarding employment questions, he would respond in a timely manner with the correct information regarding your case to answer the questions honestly. I hired him a second time when I was charged with failure to remain at the scene and he told me in confidence that he would get my case dismissed and sure enough he did what he said. I put all my money on Micheal to get the job done every time!

Michael understood my case and made me at ease that our outcome would be what he said. I’m very happy that he was my attorney.

I’ve been for the first time involved in a serious car accident, fortunately with only my car affected and no personal injuries. I passed the road side sobriety test and blew way below the legal limit but I’ve been charged with everything under the sun. I called the firm on a Saturday morning and Michael was the first to return my call. He listened to me and very friendly but professionally he reassured me that he will take care of the case. And he did. He helped with everything was necessary for me during the 2 years of waiting time( due to the delays in Court scheduling). Then, when we faced the Judge, Michael on my side, he took care to explain me the whole process and he strongly pleaded for me. Everything has been dropped except a minor traffic violation. Amazing. I don’t want to have another legal experience but if for any reason it happens, I know who I want next to me : Michael Berman with Alpert Schreyer Poe LLC .

Best defense Lawyer I’ve ever met. He’s always in contact with you all through your case

I got pulled over for a tag light out and charged with DUI and reckless driving. He got the charges dropped all I had to do was pay the fine for the tag light. Highly recommend Michael.

He fought my case & got everything acquitted!!!!! I was amazed at his skills!! 100% 10/10. Everyone complimented me on my lawyer choice. Don’t hesitate to use them. I’ll never use anyone else!

I got pulled over in August in PG county and got charged with a “DUI” when I blew a 0.02 so I called around and found Alpert Schreyer law firm. They put me in contact with mike Burman who is one of their lawyers. While talking to Mike he put me at ease and told me that this doesn’t make any sense at all because I’m way under the limit. That this is the most ridiculous thing he’s heard since he started practicing law. And reassured me that it should be easy to take care of. And of course they did take care of it. Everything was dismissed as if nothing had ever happened. This has been something that I’ve bee stressing about for months and Mike made the process so easy I didn’t have to say a word. All I had to do was show up. I can’t thank mike enough and everyone at Alpert schreyer law firm who made this whole nightmare disappear
