Michael Andrew La Fratta

Like so many, I did not know where to turn when seeking a family lawyer. Having never been in a situation that involved social services I was going down a list of google searches trying to find legal assistance. Some offices did not return my calls, one office outsourced my call to a help desk in Cal...ifornia who would determine if my case was worthwhile, and others would only assist if I paid over the phone first before telling me if they could even help. I left a voicemail with Mr. LaFratta's office and received a call later in the afternoon while at work so I was unable to take the call. However, he sent me a text identifying himself and asking for some information which made me feel comfortable he went this extra mile as oppose to just waiting to see if I would call back. He was patient and kind as I continued to ask questions and determine the route I wanted to go with my case with social services. His knowledge, demeanor, and truthful take on my situation put me at ease and I trusted him whole heartedly. Even though I knew I was not his only client, I always felt as if I had his undivided attention. Not once, did he make me feel as if I was a mistake for being in the situation I was in. A year and half later, he has won my case and has lifted a weight off my shoulders. He called me to inform me that we won our case, and I was ecstatic. But what made it all the more personal, was a message he sent me later in the evening saying "I am so happy for you". This is how personally involved he is in his clients. I sincerely appreciate everything you have done sir.

Mr. Michael LaFratta was instrumental in my defense case. He worked hard for me, was always available to talk & was very informative about my options. He has become not only a trusted attorney but also a friend that that doesn't beat around the bush, is straight forward and honest with u around every... turn. If u want a good attorney that will fight for you, is good with talking to the prosecutors and judges, Michael LaFratta is the man for the job. No complaints whatsoever.

Mr.La Fratta was highly professional and treated me with respect throughout my entire case. He took the time to thoroughly understand all the details of my case and helped me navigate my options. He came to see me several times while I was incarcerated awaiting trial and always promptly returned my ...phone calls . I was thoroughly impressed with his professionalism and non judgemental attitude towards me as a defendant . Would recommend to anyone looking for a lawyer who is on top of their game.

I have been going threw a very difficult case and with the passing of my mother from cancer, trying to regain custy back of my 12 year old Autistic son and recovering from my first miscarriage it has been rough and sad. Mr. LaFratta (my court appointed lawyer )has made me belly laugh with his straigh...t forward and honest sense of humor with hope of a light at the end. I told my story to a stranger in court. She asked who was my lawyer after stating that Michael LaFratta was she tilted her head and grined and ushered me that I was in good hands. She then told me that he is very detected to his clients and when he met with her he just got out of the hospital from a car accident wheel chair cast and all! Now I can say that I saw the devotion first hand by him showing up for me the day after I had court. I was so scared that I missed. I could of swore that they were going to lock me up and throw away the key! I cant miss any more but point is that he was there! The court cases are far from over but i do have to say witchever this may play out i know at the end....for a fact...that he protected me to the best of his abilitys and saw a different side of me and heard me and understood me right along with all my crazy mess. I now insist on hiring Mr.LaFratta to all my friends no matter what kind of case it is. It's the feeling of being understood that you cant but a price on!:-)

He has told me very good advice that is outside of this case and became almost like family the way he puts things into words so i can better understand. I can tell that his number one priority is me to understand everything that is going on.(I'm not left in the dark) I told my story to a stranger in court.
