Best in the business!

When I met Michael Raab I was absolutely lost. I was sitting in the county jail with no release date. I had lost all hope due to a serious drug addiction and living life through the revolving door of the Los Angeles County jail. Mike Raab assured me with supreme confidence that everything was going t...o be ok. Mike fought for me and was able to get me released from jail and into a drug treatment program where I thrived and overcame my addiction and eventually enrolled in school to become a drug and alcohol counselor. Three years after I met Michael he took my case back to court and was able to drop my felony to a misdemeanor. If it wasn't for Michael I would not be the man, father and husband I am today. When I met Michael I was homeless in the county jail. Today I am proud of who I am. And I owe a big part of that to Michael Raab.

If you want the best outcome then you hire the best!

Michael Raab was recommended by a friend and he was worth every dollar we paid him. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case. I was charged with multiple felonies at the federal level. He fought to get my drug possession charges thrown out, because he new that a drug conviction would automatic...ally get me deported. I was also able to avoid the minimum mandatory guidelines set by the feds when drugs and fully automatic weapons are involved. He was always there when I called him from the detention center and would visit me even though my case was out of Fresno county a 4 hour drive. His fee was reasonable he defended me in State court and also later in Federal court when my case was picked up by the ATF. I have not been in any trouble since but I was so satisfied with his Law Firm that I keep them on retainer to this day.

Professional and the best

If your looking for a good attorney that will fight for you and keep you out of jail Michael G.Raab Is the man you need on your side. To make a long story short I got myself in a lot of trouble and was facing a sentence of 9+ years and a felony strike. I hired Michael Raab from day one he was profess...ional and knowlegable in his practice not to mention that he is very we'll respected in the courts. He handled my case and was a very defense and fought for me. He got my sentence down to 1 year in county jail no strike on my record. I only did 4 days in the county for 1 kilo possession of controlled substance , transportation, possesion of loaded firearms and if didn't get charged for 90 plants of marijuana. This man is the best in his practice believe me. So if your looking for a good attorney give him a call. You get what you pay for remember freedom is not something you want to bargain with. He's honest , respectful, professional, and he's the best money can buy. He will keep you out of jail/prison.
