Michael Eric Kraut

I'm sure if you are reading this you've seen better days and are desperate to find the best possible representation you can. That was my situation a couple months ago. Because of an argument and roll of the dice with my telling my girlfriend to call the police to get me to leave, I ended up getting... arrested on felony domestic charges. Apparently that's sort of a mandatory thing he in LA. I had no idea how I ended up in this situation let alone who I could call to help tell our story. This was easily the most stress I've had in my 37 years, the charges for these sorts of crimes are VERY serious. I actually ended up finding the Avvo site during my research and found a number of criminal defense attorneys that specialized in this area of law. I called and spoke to 3 attorneys and met 2 in person. I can tell you now that I was even more terrified after speaking to some of these people and that some of these attorneys will make you understand the stereotypes associated with the profession. I ended up meeting with Michael last and knew immediately that I wanted him in my corner. He was extremely professional, understanding, and went over and above from the moment I stepped into his office to help get things resolved. Michael let me know that we could be together through this process for 4-5 months. He was actually able to work with the detectives and DA to get the charges dropped, within about 3 weeks of my walking into his office! I can't say enough about his knowledge of law, experience, and network within the Los Angeles Court system. Thank you Michael!!!

I got arrested in for a DUI during a music festival, was partying a lil bit too hard that weekend and got pulled over with a .19 BAC which included some other illegal substances in my blood. I was FREAKING OUT!! Could not sleep, worried about my job, worried about going to jail, high fines, and a pub...lic record bc of the high BAC etc and I live in LA county. I called 10 attorney's in the hopes of rolling the dice and finding someone good, got referred to Mike by a friend who said he never takes no and never quits on you. I called him and he said I had to come on and talk face to face not like the other shame lawyers, who just wanted my money and hand it off. We spoke he talked me down and explained the entire process, was concered bc of the extra substances in my BAC but said ti would take time but he would do all he could to figure it out. Well, after a few months of going back and forth with the court, he was able to get the BAC down .08 and a first time DUI, no jailtime and 3months DUI program. I still don't fully understand how he was able to do all he did. But I am SOOO thankful, he saved my life, me money and he fought for me unlike anyone else I could have imaged.

I recommend you to hire Michael Kraut for your case now! Dont hesitate to call him. Hes always courteous, imformative, educative, knowledgeable and professional with his clients. I hired Mike back in Feb 2013. He took the time to make me feel safe and out of trouble. He gave me the peace of mind that... my DUI case was going to be resolved. He fought for what it was needed and helped me by answering all my questions. His follow up is great. Hes sometimes busy and will call you back. :) Im greatful i found him online and hired his services to represent me. Mike is not an average attorney. Hes a very experienced, honest and straightforward person that is there for you !

While living in Florida, I became aware that there was an outstanding warrant for a family member that was also currently living in Florida. I retained Mr. Kraut as our attorney based on the reviews on this site. I am blessed because so many people took the time to review this lawyer and led me to ...the perfect choice. Because everyone's case it different, I will review what applies to everyone. I left a voicemail with Mr. Kraut explaining my situation and telling him that it was not "time sensitive." I received a callback within 2 hours. I immediately knew I had made the right choice. I never spoke to a secretary or paralegal throughout this process...only Mr. Kraut himself. He kept me informed on the status of our case, which was essential since we lived 3,000 miles away. His exponential legal knowledge and experience allowed him to fight our case without us ever being present. After standing for us at two court dates and arguing our case, all charges were dropped. I am beyond grateful for Mr. Kraut. He put me at ease during a very difficult time when I felt helpless 3,000 miles away. Although I personally hope to NEVER need his services in the future, I am glad that he is there to help those that are in need of legal service. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

My family was shocked and devastated after we received a call that the LAPD had arrested my college enrolled daughter for felony charge for possession of fraudulent credit card, and had taken her to the Van Nuys jail. The police did not understand or realize that she had been the victim of a sophisti...cated scam. Instead of going after the real crooks, who had issued her the bad cards, the LAPD arrested and charged my daughter with very serious felony charges. We had heard about Mike Kraut, but did not know how good he was. Based on his reputation we contacted and hired Mr. Kraut immediately. This was the BEST decision of our life!!! Mr. Kraut met and listened to us with great patience, and talked to us with great kindness, and professionalism. He assured us that he would do his best to take care of our daughter’s case. Mr. Kraut kept his word. Mr. Kraut would answer his own telephone. He never avoided talking to us as his clients. He always kept us informed of what was happening. We felt very good and comfortable being his clients. Mr. Kraut’s phenomenal legal talent, skills, combined with his passionate defense of our daughter’s case resulted in the total dismissal of these scary and dangerous felony charges against her. We feel very fortunate and blessed to have had the chance to hire someone of Mr. Kraut’s caliber. Mr. Kraut will always be our hero, and we will always remember him and forever be grateful to him for saving our daughter. God Bless Mike Kraut!!! I highly recommend Mr. Kraut to anyone who has any kind of criminal accusations or charges filed against them. He is the BEST!!!
