My son had just started his senior year in high school, when he was charged with a very serious felony of First Degree Burglary. My son had no previous record. He had just gotten involved with the wrong group of kids. He was facing a possible maximum prison sentence of up to twenty years! Needless to say, I was a wreck!
I did an Internet search for the top defensive attorney?s in the state! Gary Gerstenfield?s name was on that list. We talk with a few other attorneys?, but Mr. Gerstenfield was the only one that spoke with confidence of handling my son?s case. He was always available by telephone and even called us at home at night if he had been in court during the day.
Mr. Gerstenfield was professional, ethical, and hard working. He was proactive on the case, and when we had our court date, my son had already completed all of the things that the judge requested, thanks to our attorney being very knowledgeable.
He provided peace of mind and support with every step of the case. We were well informed of what to expect. My son avoided jail time and received three years probation before judgment, and after serving one year of the PBJ, he had everything lifted for good behavior!
My son was able to graduate, and now he will be able to get a job, join the military, and most importantly he has his life back and can move forward and put this behind him! (Just a note, the other young adult involved got a cheap attorney, and he is serving 18 months).
We would strongly recommend Gary Gerstenfield and will be eternally grateful for his service!
