Throughout my career handling business needs of some of the world’s largest public and private companies, and in instances regarding personal matters as well, I have encountered circumstances requiring legal counsel. In many of those circumstances, I have sought counsel from Bernie Crane. Each time, I have found his knowledge of law, both civil and criminal, his extensive experience, his careful attention to detail, and generally, his unwavering focus on the concerns and welfare of his client, to be invaluable. His expertise in matters of contract and other complex business matters has been particularly evident, as is his ability to simplify complexity and devise practical, real-world solutions to problems. I would recommend Bernie Crane to anyone in need of sound legal counsel.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mr. Crane's work. He's personal, savvy, focused and experienced! Does great legal work. Some time ago my partner got into some trouble. It appeared he was doomed and destined for a long prison sentence. Mr. Crane worked very closely with us, on life issues and supported us beyond the end of his case. Mr. Crane understands the relationships necessary to work with Judges and Prosecutors; and how to direct his clients in order to get the best outcomes. I highly recommend him.

Over the years, I have had to hire many lawyers for various legal issues. By far, Mr. Crane has been one of the best attorneys retained. He has represented me and my companies for many years and I couldn't be more pleased. He explains the procedures, time lines, expenses, and possible outcome(s) before hand and he is almost 100% accurate. Hope he never retires so there will be no need to hire someone else.

I have been a colleague of Mr. Crane's for many years. I have never seen another attorney so attentive to his clients; caring for them not just as clients, but as people. He is relentless in analyzing legal issues and investigating facts. He is a gifted courtroom attorney who can be trusted to effectively present any argument in the best possible light. I would highly recommend Mr. Crane to family or friends.

I cannot even begin to thank Bernard Crane for all of his help. Not only was his legal representation impeccable, but his support in offering us reputable resources and advice, above and beyond the legalities of our situation, were priceless. We were impressed from the very beginning at his professionalism, reassurance and candor, while always treating my son with the utmost respect. The end result was the absolute best case scenario. I hope we don't need legal representation again, but if we do he will be the first person we call, no doubt about it!

For over thirty years I ran into burning buildings. I've been called hero, I've been awarded medals. That was my profession. Mr. Crane is a hero in the field of law. Someone who I would recommend without any hesitation or reservation. A tireless advocate for the truth and a brilliant legal mind. Someone who will make it seem like you are his only client and will not give up until the job is done.

I have known attorney Bernard Crane for over 10 years. He is a lawyer's lawyer because of his vast years of experience in the area of criminal defense. When there is a question that other criminal lawyers need help with they ask Bernard Crane. I highly endorse him.

Bernard Crane is an incredibly dedicated and hardworking attorney. His work ethic and commitment to his clients is equally as impressive as his overall good nature. While his record speaks for itself, I would also highly recommend Mr. Crane to represent any of my friends or family in need of a good attorney with proven results.

Very helpful in with my case. He was kind enough to give me free consultation over the phone and it helped out tremendously. This is the type of guy who won't nickle and dime you but really help you out with the legal system. Will contact again if I run into any issues in the future.

Mr. Crane was absolutely pivotal in helping me with my case. He is a great attorney and I have recommended him to others who couldn’t have been more happy with his work and results. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Crane.

I agree 100% with Amir Lynch. Mr. Crane is an angel sent by God....or whomever you believe in. I don’t know much about sports but, if we’re speaking football, he’s Tom Brady! Not only he is extremely intelligent and well know within the judicial system, he is also very fashionable. Mr. Crane is understanding, compassionate, sincere, straightforward and disciplined. About a week after I spoke with Mr. Crane, I had a personal incident with an ex partner. An incident that had completed nothing to do with why I was seeking representation. I currently work in the airline industry and due to my ex partner, I had no choice but to squat in the airport for two months. It was tough! Sleeping on the airport floor, bathing myself in the restroom sink and I worked 202.7 hours in what is equivalent to a two weeks time frame. I lost my partner, one of my vehicles, my self respect and was on the verge of losing my job. Mr. Crane saved me! I have now been offered a better paid position with more opportunity. If know one else reads this post, I would just like to say thank you Mr. Crane for being my knight in shining armor. God Bless you!

Bernard Crane is an excellent criminal defense lawyer. He understands criminal law, having practiced in DC and Northern Virginia for many years. He is ethical and will assess case outcomes based on the law and facts of your case. He is a good listener and will take the time to understand your case. He always returns phones calls and emails. Text messages too.

He is a strategic thinker and can assimilate a great deal of information (evidence) and use that information to move his client’s case forward. I had just turned 18 and was facing 4 felony charges in the District of Columbia. Mr. Crane spent countless hours reviewing the evidence to build a strong defense for me.

He engaged an investigator to go to the crime scene to gather more evidence in favor of my defense. Mr. Crane determined that plainclothes and uniformed MPD officers approached me without a warrant or probable cause. I did not consent to be stopped or searched and asked repeatedly if I was under arrest.

I was physically held against my will and questioned repeatedly even though I asserted my constitutional rights not to consent to a voluntary search. Mr. Crane filed a motion with the court to suppress the evidence in the case because the officers had no probable cause to arrest or even detain and search me.

Furthermore, in detaining me, Mr. Crane pointed out that at no time did the officers inform me of my “Miranda” rights. The court agreed with Mr. Crane, dismissing all four felonies against me. Now, I am headed to college to study cybersecurity and entrepreneurship instead of heading to the federal penitentiary for 5 to 7 years. Mr. Crane’s legal defense gave me my life back.

If you need a really amazing criminal defense lawyer to help you resolve a criminal matter in Washington, DC or Northern Virginia, you need to hire Bernard Crane. He is a 5-Star lawyer. He is the best that money can buy and worth every penny. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Crane without reservation based on my personal experience.

Great criminal defense attorney.
