Craig S Orent

Craig is on your side and will fight for you like you're family. He's aggressive, knowledgeable, empathetic and get's the job done! I contacted Craig for a brief consultation during a extremely difficult time in my life. I've never really had any run-in with the law, so this was an extraordinarily... stressful time for me. During an exceptionally petty & difficult divorce, I received a bogus Order of Protection during the divorce. After speaking with him briefly over my phone, he advised me of the next steps before I agreed to retain him as counsel. I only reached out to a handful other attorneys and Craig was the only one that took the time to listen to my situation and provide a level of confidence I didn't hear from any other attorneys. (Some even said that a plea will probably be the most likely situation despite how ridiculous my case was) From the moment I paid him, he took almost all the weight off my shoulders; he advised me of his 'strategy,' past cases and outcomes that mirrored mine, the various outcomes, and kept me at ease for a matter that took over a year to be resolved. Between keeping me informed and attending all court visits he turned something incredibly difficult into something that allowed me to live my life. His strategy was clear, a dismissal or trial-- after a year he achieved exactly that. Merely days before the holidays I received the best Christmas gift imaginable, the case was dismissed after his aggressive consultation finally reached a breaking point for the opposing city counsel. Even after an expected plea deal was presented, he pressed on and fought hard and I felt confident he was doing everything in his power to protect my rights. While he may not be the 'cheapest' around, when it comes to criminal matters, you can't be in better hands and he's worth far more just for the piece of mind that he's doing everything possible. Craig carries a weight of confidence that puts you at ease the entire time while also never shying away from other outcomes. Beyond that I felt like he treated my case with absolute importance and care, he was extremely empathetic and often times would reach out to check how I was doing. Throughout the whole process he made it clear his job was to protect me and that while these matters take time, it's 'my job' to live my life, his job to get the best outcome. While I don't plan on ever needing him again... for those of you that need someone to fight for you like you're family, Craig is on your side.

Mr. Orent's compassion for his clients is by far like no one I've ever come across. With my situation i had an accidental discharge of a firearm in the home. At the time there was adult and baby present and i was facing jail time. Mr. Orent is a remarkable Attorney who refuses to loses he is very met...hodical professional and persistence.Mr. Orent would always say please try not to worry that's my job and i don't like to lose. A man who takes pride in what he dose and truly cares about his clients. My case was DISMISSED!! GOD BLESS

There is no better choice you can make to protect your rights, reputation, or sanity than by electing Mr. Orent as your counsel. You, as the client, realize very quickly that even though you may know you are innocent or the charges are unfounded, your legal ramifications can be devistating without an... expert at your side. Craig was the best decision I could have possibly made during the most helpless of times. He is empathetic, yet professional...thorough and methodical, yet opportunistic and persistent...understanding, yet candid. Most importantly, perhaps, he upholds the integrity of both the legal system and for his client. I first contacted Mr. Orent for a consultation on a misdemeanor (assault and DV) that was completely unfounded. I wasn't even there! As such, I was stupefied at what to do next. In my profession, this sort of damage to my reputation would be career ending, potentially, and did cause an issue with the governing body for my profession. Craig got all of the charges dismissed in a few months. Obviously, one never plans on needing the professional services of a criminal defense lawyer, but without hesitation I recommend you to make the decision to lessen your burden and put them on the able shoulders of Mr. Orent.

Craig is who you want/need in your corner no matter what your issues are. He is the most professional and ethical attorney you will ever meet. He is respected by both the judges and prosecutors and is confident in his dealings with them. This translates to the best possible defense one can get. H...e was supportive to both me and my son during the most stressful of times. We all understood that the case could have a less than desirable outcome, but he was realistic in his expectations which kept us all balanced. My son was facing serious charges in two cases being tried simultaneoulsy. Due to all of the above, he was able to finesse the facts with the prosecutor and both charges were ultimately dismissed. I will forever be indebted to this man.

It has been exactly one year since I was lucky enough to find Craig Orent online..... we are glad we did. Backstory: My wife and I are from southern California and took a trip to Arizona for the holidays. Celebrating the season we both had too many drinks. A dispute between us escalated with the ...police getting involved. My wife unaware of the repercussions, decided to lie to the police. The result was Assault, Disorderly Conduct and a Criminal Damage charge. My wife feeling awful of the outcome decided to scour the phoenix area for an attorney that could handle our case. We were not expecting to find such a kind caring individual as Craig. After speaking with several different lawyers we finally spoke with Craig. The instant we spoke we could tell a difference in his approach; thought out, intelligent, and kind. He immediately made us feel better on what calculated moves could be made to protect us. He informed us the worst has happened and this issues will take time to resolve, go on living your life he said, while he takes care of helping us get back to it. These small encouraging words, I believed help save and start the healing process of our broken marriage. Constantly keeping us updated on court appearances and tactics we found out 4 months later ALL CHARGES WERE DROPPED! This has been a long year of rebuilding after this emotional experience and our gratitude towards Craig for his compassion and expertise can not be put into words. If your looking for an passionate attorney who provides impeccable service... look no further. Thank you Craig!
