There are many attorneys in the LA area that you'll find but Michael really stands out for his legal background and experience. I decided to contact and meet him in person and I was not disappointed. I hired him to represent me in a case and he was professional and straight-forward in explaining to... me what I was facing against. His legal representation and ability to fight for you will be something that I could highly recommend to anyone that is in a legal crossroads right now. He is very well-connected in the community and knows many DAs and Judges. He will not tell you what you want to hear but will definitely get the job done.

I was arrested for a DUI in Santa Monica in October 2014. I hired Michael Kraut and his team. In June 2015 we won the case. By January 2016, everything was taken care and removed from my record. Michael and his team took care of all court documentation, representation, and DMV. This cases are not fas...t, not easy, and will require for you to keep on top of things and follow up on your case constantly. If you do hire Michael Kraut, be certain that he'll give his best. He handles many other cases and you'll need to built patience. Big plus is that he is accessible during at all proper times. He has my recommendation and will consider to hire him again if I needed to.

About 10 months ago I had the shock of my life. I was accused of three misdemeanor charges, none of which were legitimate. I was scared, confused and lost as to what steps to take next. I am a husband, father and a business man in the community and could not have this become an issue that could a...ffect my family, job or even worse end up in jail time. I called Michael and he immediately dropped what he was doing and made time for me to come down and see him less than 2 hours later. He saw that I was an emotional wreck and proceeded to calm me down and help me understand the process even before we discussed the details of the case. After getting all pertinent information from me he said "just let me handle it and go on with your life, I will contact you when it's done". I did. Yesterday I was contacted by Michael telling me that everything was completely done. No jail, no fine, no penalties of any kind and most importantly it's not on my record. Thanks Michael for being the ultimate professional and getting the absolute best results. I would without hesitation recommend your services to anyone who finds themselves in the place I was in last year.

Our son, who suffers from mental illness, was charged with a felony for a bazaar series of events that I won’t go into here. What I will say, is that Michael Kraut is absolutely the best attorney to whom we will be forever grateful. I contacted Attorney Kraut after our first attorney wasn’t able to... get the charges reduced to our satisfaction. The charges were quite unfair due to the circumstances. I wanted a second opinion and, after much online research, I came across Michael Kraut’s website and thought “this guy sounds great”. After leaving a message at his office, he returned my call within ten minutes. He offered to review the facts of the case and give me his opinion. We spoke the next day and after hearing what he had to say, I felt a sense of hope that I hadn’t been feeling for months! We hired Kraut Law to take over the case and within a short time came to a resolution with the court. Mike Kraut knows the law and is willing to fight for you for the best outcome. He was always available to answer questions, any time of day. Besides his wealth of knowledge, I was most impressed with the fact that he was so hands on. He personally worked with us through the entire process and was available 24/7. I can’t say enough about him as a person and an attorney. You won’t go wrong with him. He’s simply the best!
