Great Lawyer

Raymond Anthracite did a great job for me and my case. he got every little detail and was concerned for my well being. He gave me every little detail about possible outcomes, strategies, and things I can do to help my case. Raymond helped me get a lesson charge then what I have gotten because of all... the fighting he did for me. It truly felt like he cared about my well being and would recommend him to my friends.

Very good lawyer!

Mr. Anthracite was an excellent lawyer. I had a very serious change against me, and he was very professional and helpful. He took care of everything, and had a very friendly vibe the whole time. He knows the judges and state attorneys very well, which I learned is very useful for a lawyer. Overall he... was an excellent lawyer, which is especially necessary when you are at a bad point in your life (Facing charges).

Got it done!

When I hired Ray to represent me, I was in the middle of moving to Colorado. The only thing that had my interest was him being able to represent me without my presence, I didn't care too much about repercussions. Not only was he able to do that, he got my entire paraphernalia charge dropped. He also ...kept me in the loop all while I was across the country. Professionalism at it's finest

Ray Anthracite - Superb in Court

Ray won with flying colors my case, a malicious peace order hearing based upon false accusations. It was a complicated and difficult case with certain challenges due to the malice and mendacity involved on the part of the petitioner whom Ray exposed during cross examination. Ray came to court t...otally prepared for battle, hit the ground running and never looked back until we had secured victory. As my attorney, Ray had total command of the law, citing numerous cases during arguments, and total recall of the facts which he wielded during cross examination. He prepared me for my own testimony with perfect advice that was both concise and useful. I calmly testified remembering what Ray had told me. At the end, the judge ruled that there was no statutory basis for the peace order. The entire ordeal took a few weeks. From the moment we met, Ray was straight-forward, honest, conscientious, detailed, thorough, attentive, empathetic, smart, practical, instructive, and cordial. Ray is that rare lawyer who brings great legal talent and high rhetorical skill without the big ego that usually shows up with either of them. Ray let me know exactly what was expected of me and what I needed to do. We continuously went over the facts, gathered and discussed the evidence, and planned our legal strategy. We spoke by telephone numerous times. We met repeatedly. Again and again, we discussed every aspect of the case. We argued, we negotiated, we agreed. Ray listens. Ray guides. Ray collaborates. Ray knows how to make bricks out of straw. Ray knows the law. And Ray knows how to think through a case. Ray is a winner. He's very good and not very expensive. I look forward to working with Ray again. And so i would highly recommend him.

Saved the day

I recently had to go to court for driving on a suspended license. I chose Raymond to begin with because he was the only lawyer who fully listened to the details of my case without abruptly cutting me off and talking price. Although he wasn't the cheapest lawyer I spoke with he discussed several scen...arios the case might lead to and was including a judge trial in the fee if it came to that. He listened well and gave the most thoughtful feedback so I went with him. Leading up to the trial he maintained contact with me and even sent reminders about certain information I needed to provide to give me the best chance for a positive outcome. He was very thorough in pointing out all the information we could obtain and provide to help my case. On my court date he arrived early to go over the details a final time and make sure we were in the same page. The final outcome was that all charges were dismissed. I was very pleased with his service and would recommend him
