Within the blink of an eye, I found myself, a longtime professional who had never had a single encounter with police department being arrested on a felony case. After being in jail for 24 hours and then let out on bail, I immediately went to work interviewing over 10 different criminal lawyers on th...e specifics of my case, their experience, rates/terms, and how they would approach my case. I was very close to selecting one of the attorneys i spoke with, until I called a buddy of mine who is a DA in another county. He told me very strongly to make sure which ever criminal attorney I selected to make sure the person was a former prosecutor in LA county. With that advice I proceeded to interview a handful of additional attorney's in LA with prosecutor experience and Mike was one of them. From the moment I spoke to Mike I felt a sense of comfort and relief. He asked the right questions, acted with a sense of urgency, was a straight shooter, and seemed genuinely interested in helping me clear my record and name. I met with Mike within 2 hours of our initial phone conversation and soon after he got to work. Mike immediately began to engage with the police department's senior detective overseeing my case and the police report that was being prepared for the DA's office. With his skill, knowledge, and relationships, he was able to convince the detective to provide him a day or two of more time to supplement the police report with additional information that would help my case and provide the detective evidence that might exonerate me entirely from the case. Within 2 days of meeting with the detective I was dropped from the case. I cannot begin to explain how rare and difficult that accomplishment was. Typically criminal attorney's are preparing to fight for you at arraignments and hearings. A handful of attorney's if they are really good may fight for you at pre-filing phase, meaning they try and convince the DA to drop the case before it is filed officially. It is very, very unusual, - maybe even unheard of - for an attorney to attempt and be successful in having the detective/police department drop a charge prior to even sending the report/case to the DA's for review and processing. No attorney that I spoke with even suggested this was possible let alone suggested attempting. In addition to this, Mike is now working to make sure that the arrest never shows up on my record. Something no other attorney mentioned possible or expressed interest in pursuing. In my view all of this underscores just how special an attorney Mike is. Just in closing, my life was really turned upside down for about around a week. This case could have jeopardized my employment with a top company, my growing business, and most importantly my name and freedom, due to an unfortunate set of circumstances and misunderstandings. I followed my instincts and selected Mike to represent me and I am very glad that I did. Thanks again Mike for everything. BTW-- My mom thanks you as well!

Whatever your legal issue is with the criminal justice system, it is the Kraut Law Group which will provide the best outcome for your case. I had been seeking an attorney that would be particularly attuned to the realities that I was facing, and additionally would have an expertise in negotiating wi...th the district attorney’s office regarding a matter which occurred over twenty years ago that needed immediate closure. Peculiarities aside, Michael Kraut advised me that the best possible outcome for my case was to petition for a dismissal of the guilty plea. Ordinarily, because of some of the complexities of my particular case, it would be expected that the district attorney’s office would request that the court deny such a petition. However, the expertise of Michael Kraut and his relationship with the district attorney’s office brought about an outcome where the petition was granted by the court without challenge whatsoever. I was extremely impressed by the legal counsel of the Kraut Law Group. Michael Kraut is personable, professional, skilled and unwaveringly committed to his clients. A client can expect that Michael Kraut will keep you informed of the proceedings of your case on a consistent basis, with e-mails or personal phone calls delivered to you by him, personally! I have no doubt that my case would not have resulted in the outcome it achieved if I had not had the assistance of the Kraut Law Group.Y.F.C
