After the funds were collected this lawyer along with the collection agency both got together and illegally split the money among themselves. They were teamed up to scam us and they both blamed the other one! I will not recommend him to any business.

If you're a female who would appreciate an ounce of compassion pertaining to a complex domestic/financial legal matter....look elsewhere. Mike was cold, patronizing and asked inappropriate questions (as I've since learned from other lawyers). My legal issue is highly sensitive and confidential and I'm very uneasy that he asked so many invasive questions. Avoid this attorney.

I absolutely made the right decision when I hired Attorney Brandon Bernstein to handle my divorce…read morecase, which was extraordinarily complex. Attorney Bernstein and his team worked very hard to get me what I deserved. He was very diligent with his work throughout the case. He always showed up prepared for all my court appointments and always kept me up to date with what was going on with my case. My case went to trial and it took nearly three years to finalize my divorce and child custody battle. Had he not fought very hard for me, putting in many long hours and paying attention to every detail, and adopting smart strategies and advising me along the way, I would not have been able to get sole legal custody of all my children. Moreover, Attorney Bernstein always checked in with me on a regular basis to just make sure that my children and I were doing okay. He was very personable, compassionate and always answered my calls when I needed to get a hold of him. I feel extremely fortunate to have had him and his team behind me all the way.

I am extremely fortunate that Mr. Simmons represented me for my particular (and NOT…read morestraightforward) issue. He was very patient in explaining things to me and what I could expect. He did not sugarcoat things and was very factual about what could happen in court, NOT to scare me or provide false reassurances but to tell me what I needed to know. He was TOTALLY committed to achieving the best outcome for me which I will say right now, HE DID! I am very happy about that! He was responsive to my emails, my texts, my phone calls and most important, the advice he gave me was spot on! He communicated with me as soon as he heard from the State's Attorney or to apprise me of the SA's offer and how he intended to respond after talking to me to get agreement. Then, when we were in court, he went above and beyond, conveying my story, and what he thought was an appropriate outcome. I was floored by his eloquence and the wisdom of his word choices. He had also advised me on what Judges want to hear in such a case as mine which helped me in preparing my allocution when prompted by the Judge. It was also there in the courtroom where I witnessed Mr. Simmons in his element and tapping into his vast legal experience. I learned SO much about the law (related to my issue), courtroom behavior, legal terms, even such things as how lawyers negotiate with the State and the Judge about, well, legal stuff. If I am ever confronted by a legal problem (NOT THE SAME ONE!!!! ABSOLUTELY!!), Mr. Simmons would be the ONLY person I would trust to handle it for me. Bottom line, he knows his stuff, he's competent, and it's apparent to me that folks in the court system (Judges, Bailiffs, State prosecutors, other attorneys, even police officers) in Montgomery County know him and respect him and his opinions. His fee was extremely reasonable, especially for all the work that was required in my particular case. So, Mr. Simmons does any EXCELLENT job and if you need legal representation, go to him!

Within 10 days, he sent me an invoice $495 for the consultation fee, he should know that the consultation can take just 15 min, 30 min, 45 min or up to an hr, and it's still be $250... He is so greedy bc he saw the check is from a business account, paid in full for retainer fee and the consultation fee all in one check the moment I left his office, and he tries to disclose, collect and bill as much as he can... If he is honest, I would hire him bc he is so greedy and I hate to deal w/greedy ppl, I requested him to refund all the balance!!! It's not bc the money I withdrew it's his Integrity...

Mr. Leibowitz represented me in a legal malpractice claim (handling of my custody and divorce case…read moreas well as the amounts billed) against two family law practitioners at a large firm. Prior to being referred to Mr. Leibowitz, one legal malpractice attorney I contacted answered almost every question I had with an esoteric question - sometimes days later, and stated that thousands of dollars of professional "assessment fees" would be incurred in addition to his legal fees. Another legal malpractice attorney I contacted and had exchanged emails with sent me a retainer agreement that went far above and beyond the scope of what was discussed in our email exchanges, and even contradicted statements in our email, and the retainer alone was more than I wished to spend. When I inquired about this and referenced the emails, he stated he didn't get into any retainer agreement discussions, and since I had questions about what he sent, he would not represent me. Thus, I wasn't feeling very hopeful when I was referred to Mr. Leibowitz. I was very pleasantly surprised! Mr. Leibowitz immediately understood the legal issues and what was needed, as well as the best way to logistically handle the matter. In addition, he was kind, thoughtful, and genuinely cared about resolving my situation fairly, expeditiously, and efficiently. He could not have delivered more! He stuck to and was even slightly under budget! He had a letter to the opposing party drafted in less time than other attorneys return phone calls, and the entire matter was resolved in approximately 3 weeks, in which Mr. Leibowitz settled the matter for $16,000 off my legal bill. He handled the negotiation as a tough advocate for me, kept me informed every step of the way, timely consulted with me, and patiently and thoroughly explained things. I am still amazed at my good fortune in being referred to Mr. Leibowitz, and I highly recommend him!
