Elite Attorney

I don't normally leave reviews, but for Robert Draskovich and his Staff I could write a whole book. We hired Draskovich after interviewing several different Attorneys prior to discovering Draskovich, not only did Draskovich charge just a fraction of what some other high profile Attorneys did, he just... seemed more interested in our case than the others aswell, and it also helped to know he was Bilingual. If anyone needs more proof of just how good he is, simply walk into his Law Firm and witness how many awards and achievements are under his name. He can also be found in Top 100 Trial Layers, a prestige achievement in itself as only the distinguished Elites are found there, in addition he can also be found in other various Top Attorney list without fail. I was facing very serious Felonies and didn't know what to expect, other than me knowing I was innocent and needed someone great on my team. I choose correctly as I would later bare witness that he was highly respected among his peers aswell as people involved with the case. Everyone described him simply as "The Best" and one person even called him a Genius at work. I will for ever be forever grateful for the Draskovich Law Firm and all his amazing staff, for giving me and my Family my life back. I don't ever want to be in any legal trouble again, but if I do I know exactly who I want in my side.

Career saver

Falsely accused of a crime, which jeopardized my career, I turned to the best attorney in the state of Nevada, Robert Draskovich. He prepared a brilliant power point presentation that detailed major flaws in the charges against me and, after showing this to the District Attorney and members of the DA...'s office, the charges were dropped and my career saved. Not only am I deeply grateful for the way Mr. Draskovich successfully handled my case, but I thank members of his superb staff, especially Michael Horvath, who expertly assisted him.

A fighter in your corner

Mr. Draskovich is the pit bull you need. I started with a different attorney and saw a night and day difference once I switched to Mr. Draskovich. Much more aggressive and professional. He is always composed, thorough in his preparation and defense strategy, knowledgeable and not afraid to “take it t...o the mat” which was one of my favorite quotes. Highly recommend
