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

Draskovich Law Group is the best...

I hired Robert Draskovich to represent me in a federal fraud investigation. His knowledge of the law and his staff are impressive. No nonsense, professional representation from beginning to the end of this ordeal was excellent. Mr. Draskovich made himself readily available to meet with me in perso...n in his office but would not discuss my case over the phone. As a result of his sound representation I was not charged. This attorney and his firm is the real deal.

Great Attorney. Knowledgeable.

We consulted with Mr Draskovich after our sons arrest for very serious charges with possible prison time. He was falsely accused and we were very nervous and scared for what could possibly happen. We hired Mr Draskovich and confident he knew what to do. Our sons case was dismissed after the accuse...r failed to show. The State wanted to continue and Mr Draskovich got charges dismissed. Thank you Mr Draskovich. You are awesome. I'm confident if had my son gone to trial Mr Draskovich would done a great job and get the same results.

This Lawyer Saved My Life

I was charged with a sexual offense last year for something that happened during a block party. I didn’t do what she said I did. My family hired Mr. Draskovich to represent me and it was a sacrifice. After what seemed like a dozen appearances and a pretrial preliminary hearing, the Judge dismissed... my case. Because of Mr. Draskovich’s cross examination of the woman charging me, and her two friends the way he did, and then showing her text messages to the Judge, all charges against me were dropped. I got my life back because we hired the best lawyer for my case.

The Best Damn Attorney in this Valley... PERIOD

Mr. Robert M. Draskovich -- I hired himto help me resolve a serious issue with the State of Nevada. When no other lawyer in this town knew what to do, Mr. Draskovich stepped in and took charge. We were in and out of the court room in less than 15 minutes. It was very obvious to me that both the Ju...dge and the State's attorney had the highest level of respect for him. Because of how he prepared and presented the case, the Judge ruled in favor of me. Mr. Draskovich gave me a big part of my life back - I will be forever grateful for his help. At the conclusion of the hearing, a State officer came up to me and acknowledged that I chose the right guy for the job. I could not agree more. Thank you Mr. Draskovich.
