The best lawyer I've ever had!

Michael Rabb is the best ! I had a legal situation haunting me for years that wasn't looking good. I hired Mr Rabb and I walked out of court with better than I was hoping for. He is more then ethical and professional, ... he's wonderful! Thanks Mr Rabb!

Disappointing and Unethical Legal Representation

A pattern of excuses, dishonesty, and a lack of timely communication marked Michael Raab's conduct. Raab's representation was utterly lacking in professionalism, ethics, and competence. His actions caused me unnecessary stress, significant financial loss, and potentially irreparable damage to my ca...se. I'd like to point out that anyone considering hiring Michael Raab should think twice and explore other options.

One of the best, and most professional

I want to Express how great, amazing and satisfied I was with the service, work and time Mr. Michael put into the criminal case of my brother. He's one of the most professional, outstanding and HONEST person I've had the pressure of dealing with. He will go far and beyond his duties, to ensure that y...ou know everything associated with the case and step by step. I would most definitely recommend him over and over again.

Top notch lawyer

I cannot believe Michael isn't a 10/10 on avvo. He is truly the best representation I have ever experienced. He will honestly fight for his clients. You can feel it when he speaks in court that he is sincere with his words and his concern about you and your family's future and well being.

Not Your Ordinary Criminal Defense Lawyer!

Michael Raab was one of three lawyers highly recommended to us by a lawyer friend. We interviewed all three lawyers and decided to hire Michael, because we felt he would defend our brother as though he was Michael’s own brother. We were right!!! He took the time to meet with us on numerous occasion...s and explain every step of the legal process and never made unrealistic promises. He always made you feel like he truly cared for his client. My brother’s case was difficult to win as the defendants were going to be tried as a “package”, which meant that everyone had to agree on the plea bargain offered by the DA’s office or go through a very costly trial as a group. After numerous negotiation efforts by Michael, the entire group was offered a plea bargain that they couldn’t refuse. At the end of the last court hearing, two of the other defendants’ lawyers came up to us and thanked us for hiring Michael. One of the lawyers went as far as to say that if it weren’t for Michael, his client would have been given a much tougher sentence. We are so grateful to Michael for helping us through these very trying times. I wholeheartedly recommend Michael to anyone needing a criminal lawyer! You won’t regret your decision.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
