I did not have the displeasure of meeting this individual, so this review is based on the experience my daughter and wife had with this individual today. I am sure the reply from his office will be, "This person has never been represented by this office. This person has never had a single conversation or contact with this office." Well, they would be correct. This office did not provide a consultation for me, they provide a legal waste of time for my family. When your would-be client is seeking guidance on domestic abuse, I would recommend you not say, "I yell at my wife all the time, but some might say I am a lovable a$$hole." Also, stated to my wife that, "I am not discussing the law with you." Your job description is that of a LAWyer. You are discussing the law with the people who are paying you for the service. A Lawyer provides, according to the American Bar Association is, "is a licensed professional who advises and represents others in legal matters." Where in that statement does is state that a lawyer is worried about the future of the accused? During the consultation, my daughter brings up how she was verbally and physically abused, and his response was, "You are going to hinder his career." Who in their right mind says that? Either this individual is a misogynist or does not care to take on new clients.
During this same consultation, this individual begins to lecture my daughter about being an unwed mother. It is obvious that the mistake has been made, they would not be sitting in the office if they were not there to discuss legal actions. Is this individual a father? Would this individual like it if someone was giving his daughter a lecture in his presence? Daniel Bern demonstrated condescending behavior. He proceeded to bully my daughter into answering the questions the way that he wanted. Since he “yells at his wife everyday” it is surely obvious that he talks down to women. Daniel Bern proceeded to ask my daughter, “why is your mother here?” Not to mention when discussing abuse, he basically accuses my daughter of lying about what occurred between her and her partner. And to his remarks regarding the abuse. Daniel Bern claims that women report the same time the violence happens. Perhaps in most cases, but this is not one of the cases. Most women or men do not report due to many factors. My daughter was not even given the opportunity to discuss, in detail, the abuse that occurred that was both mental and physical. From shoving her head to aggressively telling my daughter, “Get the f*ck out of my car." Abuse is abuse. Not to mention the steroid use.
Daniel Bern proceeded to call my daughter a jerk. He called her a jerk for not reaching out to the supposed father and make him take responsibility. What kind of lawyer makes excuses for the accused? The accused did not stay at the hospital when the child was born. Daniel Bern said, “Maybe he didn’t go because he was not comfortable with the people there.” What in the f*ck? Who cares? Any real father would not stay away from their child. When is it the mother responsibility to reach out to the father and make him take responsibility? And the accused is 23 years old. Do you believe that 23 is not a reasonable age to be responsible for themselves?
The simple fact that this person talked down to my wife when defending our daughter is proof that he is a fraud. He did not want to discuss anything with my wife. Would he be defending my wife? No, but he could have some respect for her and treat her with dignity, not to mention we are paying you, so listen. This individual sounds like a coward, in my opinion.
When we reached out to Daniel Bern office, the website for the office states, “Consultations are scheduled by appointment either over the phone or in-person.” My family entered the office for a consultation, not a A La Carte menu. My family entered the office to discuss legal matters, what difference does it make what form of legal matters are discussed?
Lastly, if you notice during this review, I am genuinely not referring to this individual as a man. A real man would not yell at his wife every day and call himself a loving a$$hole. What form of professional language is that? A real lawyer would listen rather than offer life coaching skills. Your profession is that of a lawyer. Do your profession. You are a bully that is filled with non-sense. The first words that come out of your mouth is “well than I guess _____ told you how I am?” What the f*ck does that mean? You had the nerve to tell my daughter “Do you have proof?” Let me go push you in the head with just me and you, I’ll wait for you to take your phone out, put it on Record, and let you record me pushing you in the head, then you can come tell me to have f*cking proof. Daniel Bern, you are a coward.
PS, if you want to discuss this matter further, I am sure you will not have trouble reaching out to me. I am willing to sit down with you face to face and discuss things like a gentleman, which would require you to wear a suit and tie, not sweatpants and polo like you wore when you met my family. We were referred to you by a fellow attorney of yours, so much for being a Pioneer.
