My experience with The Law Offices of Gerstenfield & Demirji exceeded my expectations. Gary was truly wonderful. Gary Gerstenfield is an exceptional law professional; an impressive body of law knowledge and provides excellent counsel, guidance and sage advisory services. Gary and Robert both worked to have my criminal charge in Montgomery County, MD dropped completely. His office did all this w/o me having to appear in court at all except for the preliminary hearing. Gary's assistance, support and customer service is exemplary. FYI, a charge doesn't necessarily mean you committed the crime, in my case Gary Gerstenfield put in his time/effort to get my charge dropped, no prosecutor can have a chance against Gary. I can happily say that I didn't commit the crime i was accused of. My uncle introduced me to Gary since Gary had helped him dismiss a reckless driving charge We went to Gary's office in silver spring. We spoke in person briefly about my situation, he gave me a VERY fair price and he understood i was temporarily not working, and we discussed next steps. The day of my preliminary hearing, with me providing him with short notice of my hearing he still appeared on time, dressed professionally, comfortable with the entire process. At my next court date, Gary and Robert showed up in court and I got out of the court room very happy. I was so worried for weeks leading up to that date because this was my first court date, but was so relieved with the outcome. Gary and Robert were very courteous, easy to talk to, and they responded to emails very quickly. I highly recommend The Law Offices of Gerstenfield & Demirji and will be referring all of my friends, associates and family.

If you are looking for a lawyer, look no further! Gary and Robert are amazing at not only making you feel at ease but giving you great results. They are understanding and truly care about your case that they go through details to defend you. I was afraid to have a criminal record since that would make it difficult to attain a job but thanks to both of these attorneys I can look forward to a bright future without a record. Once again, if you are looking for a lawyer go to Gary and Robert as they will help you attain desirable results!!

Last month I was completely blindsided after learning that someone close to me in my life had gotten themself in trouble. Unfortunately, I am now all caught up in that person's mess. In complete shock and dismay, I immediately began researching criminal defense attorneys and I came across Gerstenfield and Demirji. I called the office and spoke to the wonderful receptionist, and she got me in to see the team the same day. The office is in downtown Silver Spring in a nice well-kept building. They have a beautiful suite on the 3rd floor. I first met with Robert and then Gary. From the moment I began telling them my dilemma they immediately reassured me they would help me with my problem. I highly recommend these two extremely competent, effective, and professional gentlemen to anyone looking for top-notch legal representation. Thanks to their indefatigable efforts to resolve my situation, I have my property back and I looked forward to being able to finally turn the page and move on. While I will still require their representation on another matter, I am confident they will do whatever they can to assist me in getting through it as well. These guys are the real deal! Thank you for everything. James.

I had a baaaad case and was recommended to a lawyer in PG county at first but then I met Robert. The price was half. Literally half and I got everything settled within a year. I had a coworker at a different job and when we passed the building we had the exact same story and cards in our wallets. I call them up for any case. Super knowledgeable and responsive. It's like having a smart best friend. ????

GARY THAT'S YOUR MAN....TO GO TOO IF YOU WANNA GET YOUR WORK DONE! I was Involved in a case with ten charges against me and a bench warrant for the past nine years. When we came to know about Gary and his skills from a family member of mine who also was a prior client of Gary. We immediately approached and explained to him about my case .....the way Gary responded was Impeccable .....you gotta give it too this Guy. Once GARY started working on my case, what he said to us was .......NOW go and watch THE GOD FATHER parts I & II and I will take of your case. I was overseas and not able to set foot in the U.S for nearly a DECADE. GARY finished the whole case in a jiffy, I mean we were astonished from the results he gave us. THANKS to GARY...NOW I CAN FINALLY COME HOME. ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU MR GARY GERSTENFIELD.

Review
Being “t-boned” in a car accident with all air bags deployed is a scary feeling, and the process thereafter can be a bit daunting and overwhelming. I definitely was in need of a lawyer as I was not at fault, and Mr. Poole (Troy) was there to walk me through the process. Troy was professional, informative, and timely. If I had questions, Troy made me comfortable enough to ask. In the end, although my car was a total loss, Troy ensured that the outcome of my claim was favorable and ensured that I was satisfied. Without a doubt, if you’re in an auto accident, call Troy!
Review
I was referred to Attorney Poole and he was true to what was shared with me. He was responsive and resourceful throughout my entire case. I would recommend securing his services if you're in search of solid representation without worry.

Honestly the best lawyer I have ever had! Hoping you never need one, but if you do then call him today! This was my second DUI charge and 1. He never made me feel bad 2. Gave me facts only and told me realistically what could happen. 3. Followed up periodically and let me know everything what was happening and basically held my hand the whole way. He was able to get it dropped to reckless driving which is amazing. Super nice guy with lots of knowledge and connections in the DMV. Highly recommend!

Michael Bruckeheim is an amazing attorney and makes you feel like a friend rather than a client. I knew he was an excellent choice from the start as he spent over two hours on the phone with me on a Saturday morning. He was straightforward about all the possible outcomes of the case, which I really appreciate. He also gave me some courses prior to my court date which really helped my case. In the end, I had my charges greatly reduce and Mr. Bruckheim was a calming influence throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend Mr. Bruckheim!

In a process where I was concerned and confused, I am definitely glad that I was referred to Michael Bruckheim of Bruckheim & Patel. A lawyer friend of mine in Atlanta reached out to his colleagues in the DMV area when he heard about my case and Michael’s name came up immediately. On initial contact, Michael was patient and empathetic as I told my story and he gave me honest and real feedback on possible outcomes, given the details of my case. When we met in person, he also gave me a step-by-step explanation of the overall legal process as well as advice on ways to mitigate my case. During the entire process, Michael as professional, knowledgeable and extremely responsive. By the time my court date came around, I was more comfortable with my situation and felt prepared to deal with any verdict. I would definitely go back to him for any legal matters and/or advice. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, I received THE BEST possible result!! I am a very happy client!
