"I had a gun and drug case at the same time, and I thought I was done. David Glanzberg didn't promise magic but told me he'd fight like hell,and he did. I walked away with way less than I expected. The man is smart, respected in court, and real. If you're dealing with charges in Philly, don't play around, hire him first.- Jose Garcia

Gun Charge
Dominique Johnson
Had a gun charge hanging over my head and didn't know what to do. Found David Glanzberg through a friend and it was the best decision I made. He talked to me like a real person, didn't sugarcoat things, and actually fought for me. Got my charges dropped and kept me out of jail. Can't thank him enough. If you're in Philly and need real legal help, go with Glanzberg Tobia Law.

Felony Drug Case
Angel Ortiz
Caught a felony drug case in Philly and was looking at serious time. David worked hard, showed up prepared, and never judged me. I've had lawyers before but none like him, he actually cared. We got probation instead of jail. That changed my whole life. Respect to Glanzberg Tobia Law for standing by me.

Gun Case
Shantel George
David helped my brother with a gun charge. We were scared because my brother has a record, but
Mr. Glanzberg treated him with respect and helped get the best deal possible. I've seen a lot of lawyers but not many like him. He kept us updated and didn't back down. Glanzberg Tobia Law is the truth.
