For the first several years of my practice, doing jury trials was the highlight. Having to convince twelve men and women, good and true, of your client's innocence was always a big challenge. Primarily because, in a huge majority of the cases, the clients are in fact guilty. I enjoyed the challenge, and was well paid for accepting it.
Gary V came in to see me for a client interview, and no sooner had he sat down than I suspected he was under the influence of some drug. He tried to discuss the circumstances of his arrest, but his slurred speech made it almost impossible to understand him. I finally told him to leave and only come back if he was sober, and wanted my help in staying that way.
A few months ago, I was asked to speak with four women, all heroin addicts newly entered into rehab, and encourage them in their recovery. We met at a restaurant near their treatment facility, along with two counselors from their program, one of my drug abuse experts, and a former client now clean and sober.

I have to give him one star to post this review. Honestly, he doesn't deserve any. Our case still haunts me. We wasted more than $20k in hiring Mr. Freeberg. The outcome of our son's case was no better than what a public defender could have accomplished. Mr. Freeberg lied to us and our son about his plan of action. I can't really understand how he can sleep at night after taking such advantage of us - he had NO regard for our personal life, just our money. Very disheartening.

Lloyd is a condescending, pompous, arrogant, heartless person who really doesn't care about anything but money. Read the texts from him to other clients (pictures uploaded here) he claims to have all special types of relationship and great deals he could only achieve. Come to find out, he's a joke. He's suffering from dementia I think, so he will say the same thing over and over, the same story over and over. If he says journey letter only more time, I am going to go crazy. Maybe he was a decent human and lawyer in 1920, but the fact stands, he is losing his mind, manners, and

As long as you have the $$... he will take you on as a client.... Reguardless if he has the time available to help you or not... In Lloyd's case... It's all about the Benjamin's baby... I mean personally, when looking for a lawyer I want one that actually cares and that is capable of doing what I am paying him to do. So unless you have all of the time in the world to waste waiting for your trial to finally conclude, Lloyd is NOT the lawyer for you!!

This guy is a con artist! He talks a good talk but actions speak louder than words. My mom ended up doing most of the leg work. We spent a lot of money on counselors and rehab in the advice of Lloyd, all for not. After all of this money and postponed court dates my brother still got a crappier deal than the public defender offered him in the beginning. Not to mention he is extremely unprofessional. Here is the message he sent when my brother told him his services were no longer needed:

Lloyd Freeberg has over 40 years experience and really is one of the most respected lawyers in the area.
This review is long overdue. Mr Freeberg and his team are exceptional and I can honestly say he saved my life. A few years ago I was in a lot of trouble and I had hired a lawyer that was not doing anything for me. She was a hotshot lawyer and got a big case at the time I think. She took my money, wouldn't return my phone calls, sent other people to court instead of coming herself and told me to take a deal for 9 years because that was the best I could hope to get. She said it was the

I was highly recommended to this office. But neither Mr. Freeberg nor his office manager Sarah return phone calls. I have been calling the office for 3 weeks now with no return call. I've spoke briefly to Mr. Freeberg, only to be told I'll call you back,but of course nothing and he'll forward your call to voice mail when you call him. If you can't or won't take a new case you should just say so instead of ignoring my calls. Very rude customer service!!!! Wouldn't recommend this office.

What Lloyd and his firm does for this specific demographic is monumental. Myself being in the field of chemical depency and mental health, I've since the horrors of legal issues of consequences stemming from addiction. Lloyd and Sobriety Law helps his clients to understand the root cause of their issues and helps in the healing, rehabilitation process and helps his clients clear the legal issues. Sobriety Law is a Godsend. Thank you Lloyd.

Lloyd didn’t show up to my court date and sent one of his lackeys instead. I ended having to change my position of a not guilty plea to taking the DA’s nonsense misdemeanor deal. I not only had to pay Lloyd for making the situation worse but I had to do a ton of classes and community service! I was innocent and now those charges have effected my livelihood.

100% professional. Mr. Freeberg delivered everything he promised as he had to outsource me for a different county Mr. Freeberg and Mr. Texiera both handled my problem with due diligence, effectiveness and in the end I was treated extremely fairly. Point is, mr. Freeberg is a lawyer who looks at who you are and how you live your life and helps present that when the time comes.
Thank you Mr. Freeberg.
Thank you Mr. Freeberg.

LAWYER OF THE LIFETIME.
This man has helped me grow from the crappy kid I once was to a respected individual by the public and my piers. With his (And his amazing assistant Sarah) help I became a free man and with a Clean and clear name. It was a battle to get where I am today but if it was easy I probable wouldn't have learned anything. I'm happy to say I am in a better place in life because of the team here and I would do anything to help Loyd or Sarah if ever needed.

Lloyd is a highly respected attorney and knows all of the players in this realm of the legal field. He has a very good sense of what can practically be done to resolve a case, he is very realistic about what you can expect as you go through your court proceedings. He has a tremendous amount of experience with the judges and the prosecutors and all of the personal who populate the court system

Lloyd and his entire staff really came through for me. Sometimes he does have people fill in but they're all just as good as he is. My co defendant got 3 years (public defender), I ended up getting 6 month house arrest, and 18 months out patient. I've been sober ever since coming up on my 3 year chip and Lloyd played a big part in my sobriety. He kept me out of jail and was always great. He is busy but that's because he has a lot of clients. He always told me "you do your job and stay sober and I'll do mine and keep you out of jail"... It was always a for sure thing
