Berschler Associates, PC

After an hour consultation with him two months ago at 6:00pm I was thrilled at the possibility of him representing me!! He was a referral from an attorney in Berkeley. Mr. B said I would receive an email and additional information where he would have to file my case. Yesterday Mr. B said I misunderstood him. That there was some miscommunication on my end. He was extremely rude and arrogant. I am a very educated woman I would not have been calling his office two months following up on my status if he and his team had communicated to me. He stated he emailed me, I informed him I never received an email. He said you did. Then put me on hold to check, but didn’t acknowledge they didn’t send it and then asked me for my email address. Very disappointing he act like we never had an hour conversation two months ago!! There was a huge miscommunication on HIS part. Who continues to call an attorney if they are not going to represent you, they told me he was busy with a case and he would get back to me……It went on and on and on. His rudeness is what was surprising to me

Words cannot express my gratitude for Mr. Berschler; I was facing a very difficult situation involving maritime law and from the very beginning he provided clear guidance, professionalism, and genuine care, showing deep knowledge of law and the maritime industry, always being responsive and thorough in his explanations, and fighting hard to protect my interests. Thanks to his dedication I came out of a tough situation with a much better outcome, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an attorney who truly goes above and beyond.

Mr. Berschler was a dream to work with. He was so knowledgeable about maritime law with extreme attention to details along with a comforting demeanor which I really needed as I was going through some major physical and emotional damages after my injury. Thank you Mr. Berschler! I am so grateful! -Amanda L.

I was so lucky to have met Mr. Berschler, perfect timing may I add. He worked so hard and believed in me with confidence, I would recommend him to anyone who can handle a man of his word who speaks the truth. The day we spoke on the phone for the first time , I will never forget, thank you Mr. Berschler!

Arnold Berschler is the best …only sorry I can only leave 5 STARS. I’ve been in the marine business for decades and Mr Berschler has always been there for me when I need legal help… Highly recommended

Arnold and his team helped our company on two separate legal matters involving our 30+ year maritime business in 2023. In both cases, Berschler Associates successfully produced recovery in our favor on both counts - and without any further claims made against us! We would highly recommend anyone to retain Arnie's services for professional service and productive results in maritime industry legal matters.

Mr.Berschler treated me exceptionally well. The outcome exceeded my expectations. Thanks Mohamed

Mr. Berschler and staff are very caring. He is an outstanding, experienced and knowledgeable lawyer. He goes beyond to make sure you are getting all the care you need with doctors. Mr. Berschler is very thorough and always right there for you. He is very professional, compassionate, and honest. I would definitely recommend him!

I was extremely satisfied in the depth and knowledge writing a Bill of Sale, bringing up many things I had not considered and the short turnaround to completion.

I contacted Arnold in 2019 regarding an incident in which I was seriously injured aboard ship. Arnold’s depth of experience, professionalism and sensitivity to the particulars of my case were second to none. He was able to answer all my questions and address my concerns through multiple phone and/or video conferences. He adeptly kept my expectations reasonable while making rational projections as to the course and possible outcomes of the case. Most importantly, he proved to be a skilled negotiator which led to a successful conclusion. Arnold has been practicing Maritime Law for several decades and that experience resulted in crafting a solid, logical and presentable case utilizing several accomplished experts to independently verify all the pertinent aspects of the matter. He is widely respected by the professionals in his field and recognized for his pioneering legal mind. When the pandemic struck in 2020, Arnold was able to adjust and navigate the matter to a successful conclusion despite the numerous challenges that arose due to remote work transitions, reduction of staffing, disruptions to my treatment, etc. Altogether, I would absolutely recommend Berschler Associates, PC to any mariner who might be in need of his services. Thanks Arnold!
