The Law is hard, but it is the Law.

     I am a successful business professional, working for a reputable company, who recently had the misfortune of being falsely arrested, due to mistaken identity. Upon returning from an international business trip, I was taken into custody when reentering the country, arrested, and detained in a county correctional facility for over 20 hours. This extremely alarming and stressful incident was later determined to be the result of my identity being incorrectly linked to an arrest warrant for another individual who shared my first and last name. Attorney Berke exemplified the persistence and diligence required to obtain my desired outcomes within a very reasonable time frame; particularly considering that we were working with a city municipality. Attorney Berke worked tirelessly to clear my arrest record, ensure corrections were made to the inaccurate warrant, and seek reparations for the harm done to me, my family, and my professional reputation. I highly recommend Attorney Berke. He clearly understood my desired outcome, kept me informed on progress being made, and ultimately provided me the confidence to travel internationally without concern for my freedom. Attorney Berke demonstrated genuine concern for my well-being, and provided on-going support to ensure these events did not recur during subsequent business travel.
