Case Dismissed in US District Court

It was a pleasant experience working with Attorney:Khurram Baig, He was a great help and very efficient in getting my Federal Violation case dismissed in US District Court. He has good contacts/reputation with the US Federal Attorneys, he worked with the police officer and the eye witness directly an...d got my case dismissed. His knowledge is excellent and his dedication exemplary! He was very precise/prompt in response. Together we achieved great result and I am sure many such accomplishments would be lined up wherever he lands. He visualizes the inconceivable, works towards the improbable and delivers the best results in your favor! Wish him the very best. Strongly recommended.

Excellent representation for my federal case

Mr. Baig represented me in a federal case and I was very satisfied with the professional level and even the personal level. During my case which lasted more than five (5) months, I have always felt that natural trust and comfort with him every time we communicated. He certainly displayed a great con...fidence and knowledge constantly which I found highly appealing to any defendant. Thanks again Mr. Baig for everything you have helped me with.

Very Persuasive & Convincing Presentation to Judge

I had a case where as an employee I was given a citation for illegal activity in the business premises. Confoundingly, the business owner was never charged. Either way, Mr. Baig was invaryingly diligent about keeping me informed during the 'pre-trial' process.....always being proactive in dealing... with the District Attorney's office to receive as much 'discovery' information as possible. He explained all the options to me in details, and also made concrete professional suggestion. Mr. Baig's best performance was on the day of the actual trial, convincing/persuading the Judge. After the District Attorney came up with three years of probation and several thousand dollars fine as the final offer.........Mr. Baig gave a passionate and effective presentation to the Judge, detailing out all the mitigating circumstances, and persuaded the Judge to reduce the sentence to one year of probation, NO fine, and checking with the Probation Office 'over the phone' once a month. Professionally, he was very effective.

The Miracle Worker.

Where to begin? Khurram is definitely something else. I've dealt with a plethora of lawyers prior to meeting Khurram and it honestly didn't feel like he was just another attorney. Khurram kept this on a personal level, like I wasn't just another client of his, but a friend. He has an awesome sense of... humor but when it comes to being serious, he definitely has class. He is also blessed with a way with words. For example, the solicitor on my case would not budge to ANY agreements with me or the prior attorney I had on my case (It was a criminal defense case, with a continuance for about 6 months. Prior Lawyer before Mr. Baig was on this case for about a month and a half.) Long story short, we were set for trial on a specific date with all signs pointing to somewhat negative outcomes. I emailed Khurram and told him my situation. He agreed to help me. We went back and forth with what possibilities there were and how we could try to come out with positive outcomes. Finally, I went to court alongside with Khurram and ready for trial. A couple minutes being in court and somehow, someway, Khurram pulled me aside, and told me the MIRACLE news. Trial wasn't necessary and an agreement was made that couldn't have gotten any better. All I can say is that Khurram is a miracle worker and I am extremely pleased with his work. I really do appreciate his help and concern with my case and would definitely recommend him to ANYONE looking for a new lawyer.
