No one ever wants to find themselves in a situation where they are in serious need of an amazing defense attorney, but if you do, Michael Kraut should be your first call!! I spent the last 11 months working very closely with Michael on my boyfriends case and I cannot sing his praises highly enough! ...When I first started looking for lawyers, Michael's name popped up on every search and his ratings, reviews and most of all his experience spoke volumes. Then, we made a few calls and professionals in his field verified what I'd been reading about Mr. Kraut, that he was an incredible lawyer!! He did not fail to deliver! When we first went into this none of us expected that it would take 11 months to resolve or that there'd be so many ups and downs, but Michael never gave up! He kept fighting, kept coming up with new ways to attack the case and expose the problems and get to the truth! He would not stop until we reached the resolution we desired!! His skill, knowledge, experience and integrity and truly unparalleled! Being a former DA he was able to advise us on both sides of things and give us insight others couldn't which gave us clarity on crucial days where the smallest things mattered! He is extremely honest, good or bad, he always told us the truth no matter if it's what we wanted to hear or not, which I truly believe you need in a lawyer and is hard to find! He is well respected in his field which shows in the courtroom and rightly so, his skill, knowledge, character, integrity and morals when it comes to the law are second to none and his colleagues know and respect him highly for that! Michael is incredibly good at what he does and even more so, he genuinely cares about his work, his client and all those involved! After 11 months and an amazing outcome, I would not just call him our attorney, I would call him our friend!! Hopefully we will never need to employ him again, haha, but if anyone ever asks me who to go to for the best legal representation in Los Angeles, I will always say Michael Kraut without hesitation, it doesn't get any better than him!! Thank you Michael for all of your hard work, your tenacity, you honesty and your endless pursuit of justice!! We are forever grateful!!

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 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.
