About Arnold Isaac
Arnold Isaac Berschler built his legal foundation at Temple University Beasley School of Law, where he earned his J.D. degree. He moved into practice areas that combined courtroom work and complex maritime matters. Over the years he has balanced private practice and professional association involvement, shaping a career that spans trial work and admiralty law.
He is admitted to practice before the Ninth Circuit and in the State of California, and he holds admission in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. Those credentials have supported work on both federal and state matters. His court admissions reflect a practice that reaches beyond a single courthouse and encompasses appellate and trial-level proceedings.
Berschler has held leadership roles in small and mid-sized firms. He served as partner at Berschler & Draluck and is principal of Berschler Associates, PC. In those capacities he has handled litigation, client counseling, and case management. Colleagues describe him as someone who prefers clear legal analysis and direct courtroom presentation.
Maritime and admiralty law are recurring themes in his practice. He is a California Certified Legal Specialist in Admiralty and Maritime Law and holds a related certification from the State Bar of California. He also serves as a proctor for the Maritime Law Association of the United States, a role that connects him to national discussions about maritime rules and practice. Those credentials point to technical knowledge of shipping, cargo claims, marine insurance and related liability issues.
Memberships in trial lawyer organizations round out his professional profile. He is a member of the San Francisco Trial Lawyers and the Capital City Trial Lawyers Association. These affiliations indicate ongoing engagement with trial practice and professional development among peers in both metropolitan and regional settings.
His practice combines courtroom litigation and specialized maritime work. He has represented clients in disputes that require an understanding of admiralty principles and federal procedure, and he has managed matters that proceed in both state and federal courts. He also maintains an active role in professional organizations, contributing time to association work while running his firm.
Berschler currently maintains offices under the Berschler Associates, PC and the Berschler & Draluck names. He continues to handle admiralty, maritime and related litigation matters.
