Hello, Just wanted to say what a great choice for my defense lawyer I made in choosing Mike Kraut. He worked tirelessly for me to have my case dismissed. I would recommend him highly in any matter of a criminal nature to acheive the result you desire. His knowledge of the system and his ethical oper...ation within the system seem unparalelled in my experience. Sincerely Greg T

My interaction with Michael Kraut was as a guarantor for my fiancee. She had been arrested and charged with felony embezzlement. After she found Mike online we went together to see him. We liked him, we liked his presence and his background, and we hired him. The advice I had always heard was, that i...f you need an excellent defense attorney, hire someone with extensive experience as a successful prosecutor. Mike Kraut certainly has that quality. Mike is a magician. He makes problems disappear. We are all very lucky that he chose to use his high effectiveness for good, because the guy just gets it done. Within three months her case was dismissed, and it was a memory. Do not expect a dawdling, decision-by-committee, pantywaist of an attorney. Kraut will tell you exactly what to do and when to do it, and he expects complete compliance with his advice. If you want your problem to go away, my advice is to take his without question.

I hired Michael Kraut after researching about a dozen of the top criminal defense attorney's in the Los Angeles area. I met with most of those attorneys. As soon as I met Mr. Kraut I knew that not only is he extremely qualified, but as a former prosecutor, he knew the system from the inside. He wa...s compasionate, carying and met with me and my wife numerous times during the time he handled my case. In the end, he was able to lower the charges beyond anything I thought was possible. I had been charged with a DUI and had a blood alcohol level of .19 when the police tested me. Mr. Kraut met with the police and prosecutors, put together a pre-filing package that explained who I really am, and provided verifiable weaknesses in the prosecutions case. I faced loosing my job, and therefore my ability to pay my mortgage, the loss of my driver's license and a criminal record. After Mr. Kraut was finished, none of those bad results occurred.

Michael Kraut was an excellent lawyer to me . I have a felony DUI. I had a 0.08 but instead of just going through the check point I tried to turn around because I was scared. Bad mistake. A officer approach my car at a high speed and crashed into my car. I had been smoking marijuana and was facing up... to a year in prison. Because of his insight and experience he was able to get me off without any jail time. My whole life could have been destroyed. I have to do 30 days community service and 3 months DUI classes. I would have lost everything. My job, my apartment and my self worth. He fought hard for me and was able to help me get my life back. I can not thank him enough. He was very nice and he was very kind to my friend and my father. I would recommend him to anyone because I can not thank him enough for fighting so hard for me.
