Pros
1
Knowledgeable and helpful lawyer
“Mr. Berger is very kind, knowledgeable, and no-nonsense. A fair person as well - the first consultation is free.”
2
Easily explains legal options
“Great personality and easily explains different options.”
3
Responsive and available for legal matters
“Dave is very knowledgeable and helpful. He is readily available for real estate closings and related legal matters.”
Cons
1
Inconsistent billing practices
“David Berger represented my father-in-law in a house sale. Dave quoted us a price of $750 over the phone but later invoiced us for $850.”
2
Sloppy document preparation and handling
“He failed to update his templated documents which, when sent to us, were fraught with errors from previous versions.”
3
Lack of transparency and communication
“He expected us to sign the closing papers without a Statement of Sale. 'After you sign, I'll just hold the papers until the Statement of Sale comes back.' (Trust me.)”
4
Inattention to detail and mistakes in legal documents
“we discovered that we had good reason for our lack of confidence in him, because the document shorted our bottom line by over $3,700!”
5
Unprofessional service and poor client coordination
“Finally, Dave expected me to coordinate with the mobile notary in the delivery of the closing documents. No Dave, that's your job.”
