i wouldn't trust this guy with 1 dollar. He was very interested in taking my case in the beginning and seemed very excited to win my case. After I paid my retainer fee. It seemed like he was working with the prosecution,not me. He never built a good defense for me. He completely screwed me on my preliminary hearing never telling me what was going on just that I was waiting my preliminary hearing. I went before the judge and the judge said so you are waiving your preliminary hearing today and stunned I looked over at Breit and he nodded his head yes. After signing away my preliminary rights over he said that he got the one charge lowered to a misdemeanor. Later he sends me a confidential letter to me in the mail starting that my best offer from the state is at minimum 12 to 24 months in state prison and that I also send him another 1800 dollars to stand next to me I guess. Now this is my first time for everything and I had a very very good defense in my situation. Steven Breit sent the same confidential letter that he sent me, he also sent to the DAs office, stating my best offer from the state will be jail time. ruining my best outcome for the case. A confidential letter telling me my best outcome is prison and what charges they can use against me. So he basically helped the DA in prosecuting me, and he also violated our confidentiality agreement. I have reported this man for fraud and for breaching our confidentiality agreement that we had.he also was notified that after sending that letter to the DAs office the DA decided to take Breit's advice and raise my charge that was lower to an M1 back up to an F3. The DA notified Breit of their decision and told Breit that because they had changed it back to an F3 that I had the right to a new preliminary hearing. And guess what after I went with a different lawyer. Breit never sent me the email from the DAs office ensuring my best possible outcome in this case. So I basically paid Breit 1200 dollars to show up at my preliminary hearing and throw me under the bus get me to sign my rights over and then tell the DAs office our strategy in my case and then demand another 1800 dollars to hand me over on a silver platter to the DAs office. Bottom line if you love you family and you love you kids and you made a mistake and you want to be there for them or you want the best possible outcome i do not recommend you to go to this man for a criminal case. he hurt my case so bad. And what he did was unethical and unmoral. How do you sleep at night taking money from ppl that trust you to DEFEND them and do nothing. That is a very bad man. I know what I did was wrong but it wasn't violent and I didn't hurt anyone it was my first time being in trouble and I made a mistake, I owned up to my mistake and I am sorry for my mistake. all you had to do is say I'm sorry I just can't take you case, but instead you said oh don't worry don't worry he'll be fine to my wife and took my money and did nothing for me and did everything for the DAs office. A lion in sheep's clothing. If you hate that why did you offer you services to be a criminal defense lawyer, you should have become a prosecutor for the DAs office
I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for the seamless proceedings this year.
I know I came in scared and unknowing of what was to come. You and your staff were very professional and made the process tolerable and a lesson learned.

Would definitely recommend!
If you hire Stephen, I wish you the best of luck because you're probably better off with a free public defender...
