Domestic violence

Kareem a Ramadan worked hard on my case to prove I was innocent. He cleared my name of false allegations against me, thanks to Kareem a Ramadan I'm a free citizen and,I would recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney that actually cares about its clients. He is Hands down best attorney in town

Very grateful for giving me my life back!

I was very fortunate to have had Kareem as my attorney. From our very first conversation, I could tell he was very knowledgeable and experienced. His empathy and care for my situation, were encouraging and made me feel safe. Kareem was very personable, reachable, and communicated clearly. Kareem put... a lot of effort to get the case dismissed and achieve a complete resolution without the additional stress of a trial.

THE MOST COMPASSIONATE LAWYER

About a year ago I found myself in a life changing situation. I was scared and confused after being accused of something really serious that would have ruined my career and put in prison. At first I thought I could explain the situation when the case was filed and have my public defender sort it out.... When I came to my arraignment was shocked to hear my public defender try to force me to sign a 5 year prison plea deal without even listening to all the facts. That scared me so much that I started to panic and cry in the courtroom. I got some Advice from a friend to call Kareem’s office and share my story. When I arrived I was greeted by his paralegal who was very sweet and welcoming. She could tell I was nervous just being there. Later I shared my story with Kareem and even though I took a lot of his time (over two hours) he never made me feel rushed. He was extremely patient and just made me feel like my voice was being heard. He told me his take on the case and expressed a really upbeat forecast that involved using one of his accident reconstruction experts to refute the evidence. I knew I had made the right decision hiring him because Kareem was always several steps ahead on working My case. Kareem set up the case perfectly for the preliminary hearing. After three hours of putting on his case the judge ruled in my favor and dismissed the entire Case. Kareem not only did a magnificent job he was my savior and kept me feeling safe and protected the entire time. I am so endeared by how he approached and my case and I will forever by indebted for what he did for me.

Professional and Trustworthy

Kareem was a life saver I was so happy I was referred over to him. He listens to your concerns and needs. He's very knowledgeable, patient and responsive. I was very hesitant on which lawyer to choose to handle my husband's case as it was a little complicated. All in all Kareem was amazing he explain...ed everything clearly and made the process very simple. I would definitely hire him again and will be referring him to family and friends.

Amazing Lawyer

I was in a toxic relationship that sadly lead to a fight and my eventual arrest. I was charged with domestic violence and I’ve never been in trouble before so I had no idea what to do. I asked my circle if anyone knew who I could talk to and I was referred to Kareem. I called him and immediately got ...connected with him. The conversation I had with him was just a taste of what I was going to experience. He listened to me with genuine empathy, care and concern. Kareem told me he would be there for me. I could tell he meant what he said. Kareem even proposed that I take the weekend to think about what he had to say and even contact other lawyers before making a decision. Once I moved forward with Kareem he put his strategy in motion to plan on how to get my felony reduced. He said he would fight hard to assert his understanding of a valid self defense argument and would do everything possible to avoid a conviction. Over the better part of the year Kareem would argue the issues in court. His patience and persistence worked because all I had to do was complete some educational programs and earn a dismissal. Before I hired Kareem I spoke with other lawyers who did not want to fight and instead were trying to sell me on taking a plea deal. I’m very happy I went with Kareem, Thank you again!
