Mr. Bernstein,
I was so impressed by the caring and concerned attitude I received from your group. I was attacked by a bullmastiff and injured. I was so happy you were able to settle out of court and got me way more than I expected. Thank you so much for your help and support. I hope I never need you again but if something happens I will definitely call your firm. Thank you for everything!

Thank you so much for dragging me thru seven months of hell after I was hit by a Semi-Truck and leaving me with all of these bills and not even meeting with me once. We will meet again. I still have pain. I was completely healthy before this accident, and now I will never be the same again. I guess you were not going to make a million off of me. I thought your family had so much heart and soul into all of your cases. I was wrong. You did what you did, and it is done.
Live with it, and so will I.

I have an oops, I did leave out Richard, I am so sorry!
Bernstein Family,
I hold your family in high esteem. I have told my husband several times…if I ever need an attorney, I would ask you to represent me. But, I hope I would never need you, I know you understand.
Also, the ads that you have running now, it the best ever. You put the focus on us, potential clients!
Thank you to each person on your team…I am impressed, very glad to read about each one of your, family, Mandell, Sam & wife Susan, Mark & Beth. I hope I didn’t forget anyone.
Any, I admire your whole family and will be praying for you all.
Blessings,
Joyce.
