Irvin Rakhlin

Irvin represented me recently. I interviewed him along with two other attorneys. His rates were comparable to the other two. The main reason I chose him instead of the others was because he doesn't accept too many cases at a time. He was always ready to make enough time for me. It was clear from the ...beginning through the trial that he was overly prepared. He made a point to prepare for the worst case scenario. He was up front from the beginning (even before I hired him) about the good and the bad of my case. I never got the impression that he was trying to tell me what I wanted to hear just to get my business. As evidence of this, his tone and demeanor didn't change after I hired him. He helped me to feel at ease before each court date by telling me exactly what I needed to know and what I needed to do before hand. He told me things as specific as to put my hands by my side when called or what to wear for trial. My favorite thing about Irvin was the difference in the way I felt appearing in court before he was there with me and after. Before, I felt nameless. Not a single person in the court room cared about me as a person. I was just another case. When he appeared with me, he went out of his way to introduce himself to various people in the courtroom sometimes giving them details of the case before court was in session. In the end, I received the best judgement possible for me: case dismissed. It could not have gone better.

Irv is a thorough, professional, considerate, and passionate lawyer who worked hard to reach to the ideal finish in what would otherwise have been a stressful case for a crime I did not commit. As my lawyer for a serious criminal charge, Irv did a fantastic job to make sure: - There was no confus...ion about the legal process - I felt comfortable in every situation - I knew what was going on and what was going to happen next - I knew what my options are, what his expert opinion was - I was prepared for the worst and best case scenarios Irv went above and beyond to meet my needs and be flexibly with hours, calls, meetings, etc. He was always prepared for the worst scenarios but was just as prepared to take advantage of any positive opportunities -- and almost just as importantly, he kept his client in the know on what is going on and what to expect next. Irv was always prepared from a tactical and strategic standpoint, and was able to invest extra time to keep his client informed. This approach was extremely effective and resulted in me feeling 100% at ease and stress free throughout the entire process. I would recommend Irv's services to a friend without hesitation. He is extremely easy to work with and goes the extra mile to best position you and your case for success.

A thorough and excellent criminal defense lawyer. Atty. Rahklin, withinin just a few days, had all charges dismissed against me for charges that he proved were not committed by me. Methodical, and to the point on every issue, he requested specific documents and information that proved my innocence.... A great lawyer who deserves a 12 on a 10 point scale.

Irvin is by far the most talented and skillful lawyer. At first I was looking online at different lawyers and honestly none caught my eye until I got to Irvin Rakhlin's website. After reading his information on his website I made the call around 8:00 pm and left a voicemail letting him know my situat...ion. The very next morning, he called me back and scheduled a meeting. First time meeting him face to face, he was very kind and answering all my questions fully and very carefully making sure I understood everything. Before my court date, he kept calling/emailing me making sure everything is good and if I had any questions. He gave me step by step plans of what he was going to do for me on my court date. Also he was even kind enough to go that extra mile to make sure I was ok emotionally because this was my first time going to court. He made sure every step of the way that I was ok and ready. On the court date, he was very professional and made sure the judge knew that he'll fight for me no matter what the outcome would be. The outcome of sentence was light and that is all thanks to Irvin. All I got was a 3 month probation and everyone in the court said "Wow thats a lucky break. You got off really easy". I looked back and said "Its all thanks to my lawyer!" He wanted the judge to know that I'm a good person so he made me do tasks before the court date like get letters from friends and co-workers stating that I'm a good friend and a very good/hardworking co-worker. He knew right away the type of person I am and he wanted the entire court to see what he sees in me. He wasn't like the other lawyers who only see their clients as money bags walking into their office. Irvin is different and that what makes him the outstanding lawyer he is. He gets to know you first then get to know the situation. How it happened. Who started it. How did it end. He also is their 24/7....literally. I called him late during one night because I got very worried of the court case coming up. He answered his phone and calmed me down, helping to relax me and put my mind at ease. That meant a lot because he took time from he's off hours to help. Overall if you are looking for a lawyer who actually cares about the people who walks through the door into their office then Irvin Rakhlin is that man!!! I saved his information so if I have any other situation or any family/friends need a outstanding,smart,caring,professional lawyer. Irvin Rakhlin is that man for the task. Trust me, any task he gets, he'll complete it 100% and will even go the extra 20% to make sure the task is completed at its very best. Again Irvin Rakhlin is truly great and I can't thank him enough for what he done for me. I truly thank you very much Irvin for everything!!!

It was a pleasure working with Irvin and I would highly recommend him or any legal matters. From my first conversation with Irvin, he outlined a strategy for dealing with my situation, with details regarding what he would need from me as well as what steps he would take. He was genuine in his inter...est in helping me and he inspired confidence that he would help me attain the best outcome possible. While working with him over the course of a month, he was responsive to all of my questions, while keeping me informed of what steps he was taking. From the day of my initial hearing, he had a plan and throughout the month, we were able to execute on that plan and ultimately gain a dismissal of my case. Irving put me at ease and I was comfortable working with him, as I felt he was doing all that was possible to help me.
