I hired Bernt Elsner to assist with a complex zoning variance issue for my small business in Fort Worth. His 15 years of experience in Public Law were immediately apparent; he had a clear, strategic understanding of the regulatory landscape and his past recognition in regulatory practice in Vienna certainly speaks to his deep expertise. The initial consultation was thorough, and he presented a solid plan. However, the execution phase revealed some shortcomings. While the legal work itself was technically sound and we achieved a favorable outcome, the process felt disjointed. Communication was the main issue—there were periods of several days where I received no updates, and responses to my emails were sometimes brief and lacked the proactive guidance I expected. His international accolades are impressive, but I felt the day-to-day client management aspect could be more attentive. For straightforward legal matters where you need a knowledgeable general practitioner, Mr. Elsner is certainly capable. Just be prepared to manage your own expectations regarding timelines and follow-up. The result was good, but the journey to get there required more patience on my part than I anticipated.
