Click to report rating    6/16/25   5     5     5     5     5   Irwin is an amazing lawyer. I connected with him on a personal level immediately. He understood my predicament and I felt confident he would represent me better than any other lawyer I had met with. I appreciated how frank he was and that he shot me straight with the worst case scenarios… luckily his skill and connections netted us a “best case scenario” judgement. Do not hesitate to put your case into Mr. Isenstein’s capable hands. Choosing your defense is one of the only controls you have in a criminal legal proceeding. You are entrusting them with your entire future; be sure it’s someone you KNOW is on your side with enough integrity and experience to seek the most personalized positive outcome for your situation.

Click to report rating    4/11/25   5     5     5     5     5   I was criminally charged with refusal to provide breath sample. I contacted Irwin after getting a referral from someone that was in a similar situation that highly recommended him as being the best, which proved to be true. What I honestly thought was impossible, Irwin indeed did make possible. He was honest and communicative with me every step of the way, never giving me false hope with the outlook but told me he would fight relentlessly for me, and he stayed true to his word. Irwin was able to construct a solid defense that undermined the Crown's evidence. After an intense 2-day trial, due to Irwin's approach and knowledge of the specific law I was found not guilty. Thanks to Irwin I can move forward with my life and no longer have the burden of what could have come from a criminal conviction, driving suspension and fines. This truly would have put my family in dire straits. Thank you, Irwin, I could not be more grateful. He is absolutely a master of his craft. RID: 272767
