I highly recommend Brett Schwartz! He can make things happen if you find yourself in trouble or if a loved one is in trouble. With Brett's help, I was able to hug my daughter and get her the help that she needed! I can't thank him enough! read more

After one year battling in court, case was dismissed. Then a year later the institution who I work for, was trying to punished me with 10 day suspension, thanks to Attorney Brett and his staff, case was dismissed and suspension did not succeed . read more

Incredibly helpful, responsive and friendly. I don't know what I would have done without these guys. They make you feel like family the moment you meet with them. Outside of the family factor, they are incredible at what they do. I wouldn't trust my business anywhere else. read more

When I contacted Brett, I was desperate, terrified, and confused as of the seriousness and legal consequences of the charges on my adult son. Due to previous experiences with lawyers that became unreachable with cero communication once the retainer was paid. I knew we needed a lawyer which we could be able to contact, while my son was detained and be in constant communication throughout the entire process. After reading some of Bretts reviews online, I decided to give him a call. From the first phone conversation, he understood the severity and underlining of my son's background and case. One of the things I asked was, if he will answer when I call ? Or if I will have to chase out his paralegals for answers and outcomes? His answer was; "Nicole, not sure about your experience with other lawyers, but Ibtalk to my clients and here is my cell phone number, for you to text me or call me directly, and I will sure respond as soon as possible." Brett not only kept his word from day one, but he also worked and communicated directly with other professionals involved in the process of my son's case and followed thru as scheduled. Having Brett on our side of the court, gave me strength and confidence that my son was getting the best representation he could ever have. Brett was there for my son, me, and my husband every step of the way. He negotiated a non-bondable offense, and negotiated an ideal resolution that will transform my son's life and will provide him with the opportunity of a second chance at life. I had the opportunity to see Brett in action in court on two different occasions. It was evident that he is a well-respected, professional in the court arena. Known by Judges and prosecutors. His reputation, sharp presence, and old school ethics precede him. Brett not only achieved more than we expected in a plea resolution for my son, but he also was able to negotiate a pending case, handled by another (well-known private defense attorney) that had been dragged for 9 long months with no resolution or communication from that other Law firm. Because of Brett's knowledge and quick action, he was able to get that case dismissed, right in front of my face in a matter of 5 minutes and saved me and my son thousands on additional lawyer fees, court fees, time, and anguish. I know first hand how important reviews are at the time of choosing the best possible lawyer, I wanted to gift other potential clients and or desperate parents with this 10 stars review. So, they can feel assure that Brett, is a lawyer that knows what he is doing, has experience, is approachable, will communicate and explain things, as many times as needed, will answer your texts, and keep you up to date all thru the process. And most important, will do as much as he can within the Law, to get the best outcome for you or your loved one. Thank You Brett, our family is forever grateful for your help and hard work on our son's case. We appreciate you !! Thank You, Nicole R. read more

The best attorney duo around! One of the things that assured me they would be the right firm to choose for my case was that Brett was the person to answer the phone when I called. Brett really took the time to understand my case and ask all of the right questions and was super patient with me because naturally I was super worried. These guys have been doing this for a long time and and know the ins and outs of the court system in Dade County which was what made me feel at ease hiring them - experience is key in getting your case dismissed. Brett kept me up to date with my case and got the best possible outcome for me!! I'm so so thankful I hired Hager & Schwartz and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trusted criminal defense attorney! read more

We have contacted mister Schwartz to resolve some serious legal issues. My experience with him was extraordinary. He delivered all his promises. Now he is on my speed dial on my phone for any future problems. Very straight man, effective, and persistent. Made us feel very safe from day one. I recommend him to everyone. Very thankful to have him on our side. read more

Do not be fooled by Schwartz or his partner. They will take your money, do no work, then ask for more money to start working on your case. Later they'll tell you to take a plea without even investigating your case or taking depositions to fight your case. Hire another attorney. Ask around the court. read more

Don't even think to call them if you have questions. They will hang up the phone on you like a 14 year old breaking up with their girlfriend. Very rude individuals. read more

I faced a difficult situation that had me on edge, however Brett was able to explain the steps of the process and keep me calm as well as keeping me updated with the case. If I had any questions I could easily text or email him and expect a quick response. He got the case dismissed therefore he did an excellent job!! Great experience I would highly recommend Hager & Schwartz law firm! Andrea M. read more

Wouldn't want anyone else to represent me. Fast response time, professionals, and extremely knowledgeable of the law,

I hired Jon Hager to handle my recent bad run in with law. Not being from here, I did not know what to do or who to hire. Jon reviewed my case, told me exactly what he needs to do, and what the outcome would be. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I CARED ABOUT DURING THIS EXPERIENCE IS THE FACT JON DELIVERED AND DID EXACTLY WHAT HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO DO!...... MY CASE GOT DISMISSED!!!..... If you are in need of an attorney that's upfront , respectful, and quick to respond when you need him, save yourself the headache looking for a lawyer and hire Jon! read more

Brett Schwartz is a super star! He is incredibly knowledgable and gives sound advice during what is most likely a stressful time in your life. He is a business person who understands the law and the politics of the system in order to guide you in the safest and most effective manner. You can expect him to be responsive, quick-thinking, a problem solver and someone who truly has YOUR best interests at heart. He is also a genuinely caring person who is sensitive to your case and the stress it may cause. He goes above any beyond to ensure you are well taken care of. His assistant, Thuy, is also incredibly responsive and goes above and beyond. I hope I don't require a lawyer again...but I would go back to Brett without blinking. read more

When my younger brother called me to say he was in jail for quite a few felonies & burglary charges, our life as we knew it was over. Then my husband and I found Mr. Schwartz. Mr. Schwartz offered a line of defense that was realistic and practical. Mr. Schwartz thoughtfully and aggressively defended my brother against very strong evidence and negative police reports. We knew we had a tough battle to keep him out of prison. From the moment that we hired Attorney Brett Schwartz he stayed on top of our case. My family and I are very grateful for all he did going above and beyond our expectations. Mr. Schwartz was never too busy to take our calls and answer all of our questions. He guided me through the worst experience of my life and achieved the best outcome possible. Mr. Schwartz made the miracle happen, my 17 year old brother now has a chance to turn his life around. Mr. Schwartz is a skilled and talented professional. Thank you for giving my brother his life back. read more

There are not enough positive things I can say about Attorney Brett Schwartz and his stellar representation of a member of my family. I am an attorney myself and was frightened when a close family member was charged, and overcharged, with multiple criminal offenses. They were not blameless, but the charges if left undefended could have let to massive fines and even incarceration, for someone with no serious criminal convictions. We called Attorney Schwartz in what I would say was a state of panic, and fear, and by the end of a 10 minute phone call his words "I can help" were what we needed to hear and in fact, completely true, as the case ended with no convictions, no jail time, no fines, and only a probationary period. His decades of experience as both a prosecutor and defense attorney, give him experience and knowledge of the criminal court system that cannot be duplicated, and help the firm to achieve the best possible results. Not only did Brett Schwartz go above and beyond his obligations to attend to our case, he was available literally 24/7 for any and all questions and concerns, explained the plan and what we had to do on our end, and followed through every step of the way to achieve what he had informed us was possible for these charges. In addition his staff were helpful, friendly, and copied us on things like answers and filings, so we were always up to date on the status of things, and not fearful of what was going on. When you are going through something as scary as the criminal justice system, the humanity of dealing with such a caring and competent law firm is invaluable. I would highly recommend the office of Hager and Schwartz in the future for anyone needed legal assistance in Florida. They were excellent. read more
