Nyack's Best Attorney BY Far!

I recently hired Frank to represent me in a complex situation involving multiple charges with serious implications. During our initial consultation I was immediately impressed by Frank's comprehensive knowledge of the law and his ability to explain all of the ramifications in simple, understandable t...erms. After two court appearances, Frank was able to negotiate an amazing outcome that was the best case scenario for my situation. He was compassionate and concerned for me as a person as was well as for my legal issues. I highly recommend Frank Raso for any legal issues that you may have.

A man of his word...

It is my privilege to recommend my attorney if you are in need of the services a criminal defense attorney. Frank clearly explained the law, the implications of the charges, his planned strategy, and the potential outcomes. He kept us updated on his progress as we worked through the process. He offer...ed advice for action by us which helped present the facts in the most positive possible light. When Frank presented his results, we asked him to go further - probably an unreasonable request - and he did. He delivered results beyond our expectations to resolve the case with the best possible outcome. Throughout it all, Frank was compassionate, empathetic, understanding, and patient. Thank you, Frank.

A Miracle Worker

Frank Raso is a highly professional and hardworking attorney. He treated my cases with so much TLC, that I am forever grateful. If he asked me to mow his lawn tomorrow, I would. Frank was always honest, keeping me well informed, and offering me sound advice as to how to proceed with my life followin...g some pretty crummy circumstances. He kept me calm during an otherwise unpredictable time in my life. Great guy. He's like a father figure....well in my case at least. Can't say enough good things. He will get the job done right!
