promotional article, including inappropriate detailed description of their position on various cases, and bios of their principals that duplicate material elsewhere.  DGG ( talk ) 09:30, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - The article is "problematic" (primary author appears to have COI), but the subject is fairly notable. The Bernstein practice is familiar to just about anyone in Lower Michigan who owns a television. -Jason A. Quest (talk) 16:57, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - the subject is notable but the details of cases should probably be trimmed heavily. There is no problem mentioning cases or the short bios of prominent lawyers. Rmhermen (talk) 17:09, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep likely as the current version seems acceptable. Pinging interested subject users, , , , , , , , , , and  and past users , , tagger  and  (although this one is not considerably active).  SwisterTwister   talk  20:02, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
 *  Play it again! Keep Anyone who sues the American Bar Association has to be notable! (Read this !vote to the tune of America! - if you can make it scan.)
 * Comment: I think the article is very problematic on promotional grounds, but appears notable from google news.--JumpLike23 (talk) 22:34, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - both name partners and their law firm easily pass my standards. For example, both Bernsteins have been active in politics, one as a statewide commissioner and one as a losing candidate for statewide office, have been active in bar association activities, and have become content-area experts through their practice. Plaintiffs' law firms rarely reach more than 20 or 30 attorneys, so this one is especially large for tort law firms. For what it's worth, I don't know them personally.
