Sue Berkel recently handled some serious legal matters for me, and I am pleased to say that she is a first class human being as well as a top notch attorney who gets results. Few lawyers I have known are more compassionate or more able. Sue Berkel has a consummate knowledge of the Austin area court system in addition to good working relationships with many officials in the Travis County legal and political communities. This is not surprising since she is at once recognizable as a responsible, intelligent person and a gifted lawyer. I would add one more thing. Sue Berkel returns phone calls and answers email promptly, a practice rarely found in attorneys of any rank.Martha N.

I am so thankful that I found Sue Berkel to assist me with my legal problems. I was totally unaware of what I was facing, and Sue was very helpful in keeping me updated on my case and letting me know what to expect. I am extremely happy with the outcome of my case. I've told many friends already that if they ever needed legal assistance, I would highly recommend Sue.Joni A.
