Run for the hills!!! Do not hire this lawyer!!

Worse lawyer you can buy. Do not make another mistake. Michael Raab never returns your phone calls and keeps you in the dark throughout the case. Unless you are a big name celebrity, your case will be handled with the least amount of time and energy possible. Once you pay the retainer fee, forget abo...ut it, you will never hear from him again. I got so fed up with Michael that I took a loss on the retainer fee and hired a different lawyer. Best decision I ever made. Adam Zolonz was the new lawyer and he saved my life. Go check him out. Whatever you do, stay away from Michael Raab. The only thing that he is good at is making empty promises!

I believe this comment is a product of, "negative phishing." I do not know this client, nor has Adam Zolonz ever contacted me regarding any client at any time. I return all calls and pride myself on my commitment to communication with my clients.

Cream of the crop!

I would highly recommend Michael Raab to anybody looking for a criminal attorney. He came highly recommend to me and I'm pleased with the level of service I received. Raap / Mahoney handled my case and clearly explained to me ,step by step, what to expect during this process.. I was always able to g...et in contact with my attorney in and out of the office. He even took my call on Saturday! The outcome of my case...I paid a $100 donation to a charity. I feel as clients we want everything done immediately and on our schedule. But, anybody who had been through this process learns the courts don't always operate the way we would like and the attorneys have no control over the way the courts run. Micheal Raab will handle your case efficiently and professionally throughout your time with him.

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.
