Michael Eric Kraut

HELPED ME TURN A "BURGLARY FELONY" INTO "NO CONVICTION!" INCREDIBLE! IF YOU NEED AN ATTORNEY, LOOK NO FURTHER! As soon as I walked into Attorney Michael Kraut's office and spoke to him about my arrest, I felt the genuine concern and his willingness to help me in any way that he can. He met myse...lf and my entire family during my first consultation. He is highly knowledgeable and takes great pride in his work with every single one of his clients. Immediately after I told him my story about my arrest for burglary, he looked at my parents and especially at my mother and said, "I will make sure to give you back your son completely clean and without any problems." And from that moment on, I had absolutely no doubt that I would be able to continue my life without a single blemish on my record. Michael Kraut updated me throughout the case as soon as there were advancements and gave me great hope every time we spoke. There were several court hearings and he managed to rid me of my problems and the mistake that I made. I was arrested for a burglary felony which turned into a misdemeanor in a matter of a few days and eventually to NO CONVICTION. Thanks to Michael Kraut, I can continue studying, have a great career, and have a future! I am forever grateful! And if you need an attorney for a felony, misdemeanor, DUI,etc. he is the only person that you should be speaking to. Do not waste your time with other attorneys. He is THE BEST in the business!

Due to my lack of poor judgement, I recently found myself in need of representation. Without knowing where to look, I resorted to google where I was able to find 2 lawyers with whom I met with to discuss possibly retaining 1 of them. I had no idea what I was up against or who would be the better fit.... I was arrested for a felony and Michael told me that early intervention might make the difference. Michael was able to get the prosecution to only file a misdemeanor. I chose Michael Kraut because I strongly believed he was the best due to his prior experience and relationships within the legal system and confident he could get me the best outcome possible. I just prayed about it, after all the only hands big enough to turn over your problems to is God. I prayed that I had the made the right decision in hiring Mr. Kraut and that he would allow Mr. Kraut to give the best defense possible according to his will and also really favorable to me, even though I probably wasn’t too deserving of such a request. Mr. Kraut got me in right away for my consultation, after retaining him anytime that I reached out to Michael via text, phone or e-mail he always got back to me promptly. I went to court with Michael as I wanted to get this resolved so I didn't have to worry a day longer! Once Mr. Kraut came in he was talking to the Prosecutors and Judge more than any other Lawyer in that room, it was apparent the connections & friendships he had with all of them. He never promised me an outcome, he just told me he wouldn’t stop trying to get me the best possible result and I strongly believe that he did. Provided I finish my community service hours which I will be sure of, my entire case will be dismissed with no fine, no record and no jail time. I don’t know if there was a better outcome than that.. it’s hard to imagine that there is. Thank you so much, Michael!

I found Michael Kraut on Avvo.com last year. I was stopped by CHP and I refused to take a sobriety test. I was taken into custody and released but only after did I realize how serious a DUI refusal was. As soon as I made the phone call to Michael, he guided me through the complexity of getting all my... paperwork, my testimony and the mindset and courage to face what was going to be a difficult & challenging road ahead that is the realm of a DUI refusal. He worked miracles behind the scenes, and because of his connections with the DA and the DMV, his excellent timing and his intelligence, my DMV hearing was closed (cop didn't appear) and no case was filed. He truly is a miracle worker and he is thorough, meticulous and worked with me to prepare to fight and win. I truly think that my choice to hire Michael was the BEST decision I made and only he has the skills that helped me not lose my license and win.

Harvard-educated criminal defense lawyer Michael E. Kraut re-instilled my confidence during my free twenty-thirty minute consultation with him, during which time he gave me excellent legal and personal advice to help me solve my problems. I admire his skill. On top of all this, he always contacts you... immediately-- within minutes and always answers his phone calls. I underestimated traffic and how long it would take to attend my consultation with him so I was an late but he had the consideration to tell me to still come in and saw me within ten minutes as soon as he finished consulting another client. He is also flexible on pricing and was kind enough to work with me regarding pricing. He is generous and seems like he truly cares about his clients. I have never spoken with anyone so professional and well-spoken. Thank you for your time, Michael E. Kraut!

I would highly recommend Mike if you or a family member are facing a legal challenge. He’s bright, knowledgeable, forceful and responsive. Most importantly, Mike thankfully delivers positive results. Mike successfully arranged a pre-filing diversion program for our child after a recent legal skirmish.... This was the best possible outcome we could have hoped for. Mike was responsive and took quick action to help medicate the matter. When we were originally contemplating his services, Mike took the time to answer all of our questions in a calm and confident fashion. Most importantly, he ultimately did what he said he was going to do. Mike is a consummate professional but he does have a great sense of humor which can help during tense times. As a family, we feel fortunate that we chose Mike to represent our interests. Good luck with your particular challenge.
