Robert Aaron Hankoff

The last thing you imagine in life is that you’ll need a criminal attorney. When a friend needed help with a simple possession citation (which requires a court appearance, and can result in hefty fines, a criminal record and a year of jail time) she was panicked. I scanned YELP for a criminal atto...rney and for some reason the Kraut Law Group just stood out among the other listings. When I sent an inquiry, Robert responded right away and said time was of the essence to respond right away to the citation. He scheduled a meeting the next day, and when we met him I was pleasantly surprised that his first concern was the case and not talking up his firm and discussing fees and retainer agreements. He knew right away the pros and cons of the case and zeroed in on an obscure but strong argument that was the best tactic in this case. I was so impressed by his knowledge, expertise, and no nonsense right to the point style about him. It turned out that his instincts were spot on. The City attorney was ready to file until Robert sent volumes of evidence supporting his unique approach to the case. Turns out his brilliant legal mind saved the day and we got word the citation was dropped. He also kept us updated throughout the process and was at all times sensitive to the stress we felt. I don’t plan on making it a habit to need a criminal attorney, but you better believe if I need one in the future he will be the first person I call.
