Alex Bernstein offers one of the most comprehensive criminal defense law firm, DUI law firm and theft crimes law firm consulting and litigation services available with the legal expertise and winning experience required to help represent you in court and achieve the most favorable results possible.
I’m Alex Bernstein. Chances are you’ve found me because you need help. You’ve come to the right man.
Have you or a family member been charged with a DUI Felony or DWI, drug crimes, domestic violence, felony theft or child abuse? If so, these are just a few of the aggravated felonies and or types of misdemeanors we handle.
When you’re charged with a crime, whether it’s a “small” juvenile law crime, theft charges or traffic violations, or a serious one involving burglary, robbery, assault or even gun possession, it’s often frightening because you don’t know what to do. Sometimes you don’t even know how you got there. But make no mistake, when the police and the District Attorney prosecute you for drugs possession or public intoxication, you need a professional fighting for you.
If you’re looking for an attorney with distinguished credentials, I have them, a B.A. from the University of California at Santa Barbara followed by a J.D. from Pepperdine University School of Law where I was awarded The Order of Barristers for courtroom excellence. But it’s not degrees and awards that win cases.

It takes a skilled, aggressive and shrewd lawyer to win your case and get you results.
I am one of San Mateo County’s top criminal lawyers at winning trials and getting clients the best results.
Great results can come in different forms. Sometimes a great result is a not guilty verdict, or a hung jury, coming at the end of a trial, like some of these cases that I recently won:
- People v. S.P. – Strong Arm Robbery – Not Guilty
- People v. I.A. – Sexual Battery – Not Guilty
- People v. R.F. – Felony Hit and Run with Injury, Possession of Cocaine – Hung both counts, case dismissed
- People v. L.T. – DUI – Hung Jury
- People v. D.S. – Intoxicated in Public – Not Guilty
- People v. R.C. – Under the Influence of Methamphetamine – Not Guilty
- People v. J.S. – Attempted Murder (dismissed) – Felon in Possession of Firearm – Not Guilty
- People v. S.B. – Trespass – dismissed by court
- People v. J.B. – Under the Influence of Methamphetamine – dismissed by District Attorney at trial
Sometimes a great result comes through legal research and writing, and filing the proper motion, like some of these cases that I handled:
- People v. D.L. – Possession of Stolen Property – Suppression Motion granted – case dismissed
- People v. S.P. – Felony Transportation of Marijuana – Speedy Trial Motion granted – case dismissed
- People v. N.T. – Possession of Methamphetamine – Suppression Motion conceded by District Attorney – case dismissed
- People v. T.S. – Possession of Methamphetamine and Pipe – Suppression Motion granted – case dismissed
- People v. O.I. – (juvenile) Felony Vandalism – Motion to Suppress (Miranda violation) – conceded by District Attorney, case dismissed
- People v. M.J. – Possession of Stolen Property – Motion to Suppress granted, case dismissed
Sometimes a great result comes from receiving no jail time, like this case I recently handled in San Francisco, People v. H.D. My client was found with 8 lbs. of marijuana in the trunk of his car but he ended up with no jail time, only probation.
Whether you’re charged with a felony or misdemeanor or facing charges of murder, larceny or white collar fraud and Internet crimes, every client is important to me, because I know how it feels to find yourself in trouble. I chose my career because in America three things are sacrosanct: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. The Constitution guarantees you certain rights when you’re accused of a crime. One of them is the right to a trial. Another is the right to Due Process. These are rights designed to protect you when you’re charged with a crime.
Know your rights. Know you have an ally, a formidable ally, when you hire me.
Let Alex Bernstein provide you with the most comprehensive services any criminal defense law firm, DUI law firm or theft crimes law firm can possibly offer and help you navigate the aspects of your case with confidence.
