The Law Office of Ronald Z Berki

Following recommendations from the CLC, Mr Berki handled several legal affairs for me. One affair was a slam dunk easy win in which I prevailed. Mr Berki however forgot to request legal fees from the opposing side at the trial, even though I had specially reminded him beforehand. He said not to worry, we would recover them at the next trial. Not only did Mr Berki fail to do his homework, losing the next trial, he also failed to recover any fees. Mr Berki’s complete lack of professionalism cost me at least 15K and many headaches. Though he claims to be a professional with 30+ years of experience, Mr Berki clearly does not know the law in his chosen areas. He does not return calls in a timely fashion, and just seems lazy in general.
That Mr. Berki has been a layyer in Santa Clara county for 30+ is a true testament to the complete lack of oversight of the California Bar, and especially the Santa Clara County Bar Association. The foxes are clearly guarding the hen house here, and prove that they do nothing but provide cover for unscrupulous and incompetent lawyers to fleece and steal from the general public.

Mr. Ron Berki is the MOST UNPROFESSIONAL attorney I have ever worked with (I have worked with 50 – 100 attorneys in my career). I only contacted him because he was one of the attorneys listed by Hyatt Legal. He claims that he reviewed several documents that were prepared by another attorney (e.g., Will, Trust, Power of Attorney, Healthcare Directive). Other than a few minor formatting changes, he offer ZERO VALUE. He never showed up for an appointment (the receptionist indicated that he simply does his own thing, has no administrative support etc.). After completing the documents, I requested on THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS for him to send me the documents, electronically. He didn’t even respond. I would NEVER, EVER, refer him to anyone.

After paying a down payment and a constant no return of phone calls and emails, even his own Jason told me he gave mr, Berki the papers.
Berkis response and like most, i never got them, the phone call, the email etc Even CLC who gave the green light to Mr. Berki tried to get my money back, he even said he would return ¾ of it and due to hardships would return the rest in 1.5 months, now he’s going back on that.
now his offer is another 500 $ Its your call on this lawyer, never received any monthly statements, nothing. And he asks i don’t contact the state bar. CLC spent months trying to reach this person, and they got as for as i did, but a trail of documentation between them. And of course if i could bill him for all the hours wasted trying to get my money back.
if you can problems please google me and you will find me
