Trusted Federal Defense Lawyer

David Raben is one of the finest, most sincere, and diligent attorneys I have ever worked with. David and I have worked on highly complex federal white collar matters and he impressed me from the very beginning by his client commitment and quality of work. When the stakes are high, you need a lawyer ...you can trust, rely on, and fight with. David Raben is that lawyer. When your livelihood or your freedom are at stake, the first thing you should do is to call David Raben. Highly Recommended!

BEST criminal attorney!!!

Where do I start... I was facing my worst nightmare.. a horrible legal situation and felt so lost. Someone recommended David to me as being one of the best criminal attorneys. . I took my chances and hired him. That was the best decision I’ve ever made!!! What a amazing, knowledgeable, attentive, per...sistent, persuasive, power house attorney. No matter how messy your situation seems, David will get the job done in such a classy graceful way. He is very passionate about what he does and is always ready to listen. He was able to negotiate the BEST possible deal for me despite all odds. He kept me in the loop throughout the whole process and always made himself accessible. David is very well versed in criminal law and never left a question unanswered. His positive and optimistic energy gave me hope even in the darkest moments. He has many years of experience and he’s not scared to fight for your rights. He is always ready for a challenge and can turn the worst negative into a positive. He is a very respected attorney in this community because of his unmatched integrity and ethical practice. I am truly thankful to Mr. Raben for giving me a 2nd chance. I can begin to rebuild my life now thanks to all his endless efforts in defending my case. If anyone is looking for a SUPERB criminal attorney that will go over and beyond for his clients, David Raben is it!!!

Highly Recommended - Case Dismissed!

We hired David to represent my son in a serious felony case. David was able to get the case dismissed prior to charges being formally filed. He clearly has created great relationships with the local prosecutors. He brilliantly worked with the prosecution pre-filing to explain all the challenges wi...th the state's case and also build up my son's reputation (given alleged crime was only insight prosecutor had of my son). The prosecution process was frustrating -- over 10 arraignment resets. Nonetheless, David was persistent and super responsive through the entire process. He's also well connected locally as we reviewed complex strategic legal options - he sought out other experts to further opine on our approach. It's my honor and pleasure to recommend David. You will not be disappointed.

Super Star Criminal Defense Attorney

I was represented by Mr. Raben for a first degree felony charge very recently. I thought it was important to inform you of my personal experience, having gone through so many attorneys who quite frankly where mediocre or indifferent about their clients. My outcome was very favorable, my case was dism...issed. Here's how he obtained my results and expectations: Mr. Raben has an exceptionally strong eye for detail that was a benefit to my case. He also has a very calm demeanor that was a blessing for me due to my lack of patience and frustration. His strong sense of organization and professionalism helped him gain the upper-hand in and out of court. Not to mention his flawless reputation and regarded highly throughout court and officials such as judges, police department and prosecutors. This is the best part- Mr. Raben is an extremely talented criminal defense attorney who cares a great deal about all of his clients. There is no question I would recommend him for any matter. He will solve and provide you with the best possible outcome due to his experience and knowledge. You won't regret hiring him.

Best Criminal Attorney in Florida

Mr. Raben is an amazing attorney who's top priority is to protect your constitutional rights. He is an attorney who cares for his clients and does what you hire him to do. Most attorneys are plea bargain attorneys and always wealing and dealing with the state to plea bargain your case. NOT Mr. Raben!... He investigates your case thru law and he is always ready for a "fight" if it comes to it. I have hired him for two separate cases where I was facing some serious prison time, both cases he worked his butt off to defend me and the outcome was favorable for me. I have referred others to him with serious cases and in each case he did his job admirably and with favorable outcomes for all of them. It's amazing how when you walk thru the criminal courthouse with Mr. Raben you see the utmost respect given to him by other attorneys, prosecutors and judges. My judge actually stated to me that "I have a powerhouse attorney"! If your looking for a attorney to represent you and your rights, a attorney who actually works for his pay, an attorney who is knowledgeable with criminal law, an attorney who isn't afraid of the justice system, an attorney who will fight for you against all odds, an attorney who won't sell you out in plea bargains and an attorney who truly cares and is respected by his peers, then look no further. Mr. David Raben is your man, hands down. He truly is an amazing wonderful attorney and humanitarian. I can't ever thank him enough for saving my life and protecting me when I made a couple stupid decisions in my life.
