Dedicated to Serving the Legal Needs of
Criminal Defense Clients in Eastern Pennsylvania
Practicing criminal law takes a fierce commitment to the belief that everyone is entitled to a defense, that all are presumed innocent and that it is the duty of a defendant's attorney to provide their client with skilled and aggressive legal representation. At The Law Offices of William R. Bernhart, we take that commitment seriously. In addition to more than 30 years of extensive courtroom experience, we have had great success with suppression and pretrial dismissals, sparing our clients from lengthy, emotional trials.
