I consider myself incredibly fortunate that I found William Pernik…read more In a world where it often feels impossible to find an attorney who is both exceptionally skilled and genuinely cares about his clients, Pernik is the rare exception. From day one, he treated my case with the seriousness, attention, and strategic insight that you hope for but rarely see. He didn't just take my case -- he understood it. He understood me. He asked the right questions, caught details other attorneys had overlooked, and moved with a level of precision and professionalism that immediately gave me confidence. What impressed me most was that he balances brilliant legal ability with real humanity. He is calm, patient, direct, and honest -- no ego, no drama, just sharp legal work and steady guidance. At a time when I felt overwhelmed, he gave me clarity. At a time when I felt vulnerable, he gave me a plan. And at a time when I needed someone truly in my corner, he showed up 100%. Pernik is the kind of attorney who earns trust because he deserves it. He listens. He prepares. He anticipates. He fights smart. And he genuinely cares about the people he represents. If you're looking for an attorney who combines elite legal skill with integrity and compassion, you will not find better than William Pernik. I'm grateful for everything he's done, and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone who needs serious, competent, and committed legal representation.

The worst experience I've ever had with an attorney. I hired…read morehim to help me with a criminal case, and he completely failed to follow through. There were constant cancellations, missed appointments, and ignored phone calls. Even the judge had to remind him to keep his appointments. I paid a lot of money expecting professional service, but in the end, I got nothing in return. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere -- there are far better attorneys who actually care about their clients.

With all that's happening in the world today and having this looming over my head, was almost to much to bare. Dylan really helped to ease my concerns. And although he could not represent me because my case would be in the Santa Clara area he was able to give me enough information to put me on the right path. I really appreciated it and can't thank him enough for listening and having empathy. Something I have not been shown. It's difficult when your innocent and an entity is making me out to be a criminal. I wouldn't wish this situation on anyone. Thank you Dylan for your compassion today. It is appreciated.

He went above and beyond by not only getting both felony cases dropped but he also went out of his way to clean up his past felony's due to a new law which turned them into misdemeanors.

We were also able to set up a payment plan which took off half the stress of the situation. I would honestly recommend him to any person needing legal help.

I throw away more than 6K going trough child custody battle…read more They charged me in advance like opening a savings account and you received a monthly statement of all deduction charged to your account. The statement is very funny. You will see descriptions like. Example MAY 13 calling the other party conversation for 30 mts cost $120 Send letter to the other party cost $80 Review documents from other party $200 Going for representation to court $800 Etc. And so on. He will connect with the other party lawyer to try to do the best to get in circles and make things longer to milking your account faster and ask for more deposits. I remembered making a second deposit and in more than 4 times being in court not even the last name of my child were changed. The arrangement for paying child support was exorbitant high. I didn't see a really interested on my needs. At the end I decided to dropped him off. Cut his services and represent my self on court. Because I knew what I wanted I was able to speak directly to the judge and the first thing I asked was my kids last name change it. Immediately the order was honored. Simple things that never got fixed with a lawyer firm. I definitely waste my money. Sometimes I even thinking to opening small claims asking for percentage of my money back because I pay for services that never accomplished anything and advance me nowhere on my case. That was my personal experience. Now I'm happier than before because even that I don't have 50/ 50 custody with my children I Decided to get along with the mother of my kids to prevent repercussions on them. I got to see them whatever I want. Spend quality time and my obligations are not expensive like when I had legal representation. I hope this help some folks out there to opening their eyes a soon as see how quickly their money starts going away for simple things like ( studying and reading the case today 30 pages. 1 hour studying... charged $250 ) Warm regards
