Excellent Service...Extremely Satisfied

I am very happy with the service that was provided by Raymund Robles. He came highly recommended by a friend. Ray is precise, professional and reliable. He clearly explained the situation I was in and what my best option was to resolve it. He laid out a strategic strategy and executed it thoroug...hly. He eventually got my case thrown out and closed. Throughout the whole process the communication was excellent, the case was handled professionally with care and the final result was what I was wishing for. Thank you very much for your help.

Highly capable and reliable attorney

Last year, I found myself at the lowest point in my life. I was suddenly facing a serious criminal charge and feeling terrified and totally hopeless. I called as many defense attorneys as I could find and heard their appraisals of my situation and the strategies they suggested. I had no experience wi...th lawyers, I didn't know when to read confidence as bluster or whether they were reading off of scripts with my name inserted. All I knew was that I had to choose fast. One of the attorneys I contacted was Raymund Robles, which in retrospect might have been the smartest thing I did. During the consultation, Ray was very compassionate about my situation and helped me calm down and think rationally. He took the facts of the case, the many unknowns that were present, and his extensive experience with the law in calculating the strategy with the best outcome. I felt immediately comforted by having someone like Ray fighting my case. The case stretched much longer than was anticipated but Ray stuck with me throughout, always keeping me in the loop about new facts or complications. Always responsive to my questions. He was aggressive in securing the best possible outcome, even if it meant further prolonging the case. Most importantly, Ray made me feel in control of the strategy at all times, and I never felt "along for the ride." The case recently concluded, with a vastly more favorable outcome than I had thought possible. I'm left feeling like I've been given another chance, and I thank Ray greatly for that. I would absolutely recommend anyone in a situation similar to the one I was in last year to contact Raymund Robles.

Great lawyer, kind and patient

I have been involved in a breach of contract case of a consignment for selling of my car for almost a year until I started a conversation with Ray. Trust me it was frustrating, the fact that you have to pay more money to get your own money back legally is hard to digest. Until almost a year later I f...inally made a decision to move forward taking legal actions with Robles & Tantraphol PLC. And a few months later, now Ray has won the case for me for an even better result than I've expected. Ray has been extremely patient and kind during this entire time and I really appreciate all of his time and hard work. I would highly recommend anyone in similar trouble reach out to Ray and you are in great hands.

Phenomenal Attorney with Phenomenal Results

The imprint left behind by a few misguided decisions in the past can be quite devastating from all standpoints of life; career advancement, social interactions, etc. My case was rather complicated, as it involved more than one county; and the charges were ones that presumably no individual would ...ever want to have on their record. I knew that I needed to work with an attorney who not only had extensive knowledge on cases like mine, but one who had the compassion to go above and beyond for their client. I've spoken to Raymund Robles in the past and was impressed by his familiarity and understanding of what exactly I was going through and all possible outcomes. Also, it was quite apparent that he was interested in taking the time to get to know me and the specifics of my case, rather than seeing me as a mere opportunity to make money. That coupled with his confidence and caring nature really provided me with level of comfort that other attorneys were unable to provide. I was prompted to call Mr. Robles right away. Soon after a brief call, we scheduled an in-person meeting, where we went through the details of my case. He was very thorough with his explanations and the expectations that he set were realistic. He knew that this was a time sensitive matter for me, and was very empathetic towards that as well. Where do things stand now? My convictions have been dismissed and I truly feel I've been given another chance. I couldn't be thankful enough for the work that Mr. Robles put in and the care that he provided me throughout my case. I am also the type of individual who seeks a high level of reassurance with everything elaborated on as thoroughly as possible, and this was delivered at all times. As far as his rates go, I felt that they were absolutely reasonable, especially given the amazing results. Despite having worked with other attorneys in the past, Mr. Robles without question is my go-to attorney whenever I am seeking legal advice. So in short, my case had a favorable outcome, I was treated with the utmost care and compassion the whole way, and the rates were very reasonable. I am an exceptionally happy client to say the least and am glad that I decided to hire Raymund Robles as my attorney.

Best Lawyer for Petty Theft/Shoplifting in santa clara county

First and foremost, I would like to say thank you to Ray.I worked with Ray for PC 484/485 petty theft case in Santa Clara County. This is my second misdemeanor and I am extremely shameful and naturally petrified. I just googled and found Ray. To my luck, the first person I contacted was Ray, who made... the whole process easy for me. There is a free consultation. He explained the case to me, the possible outcomes of the case and that he would help me throughout the whole process. Since I have a graduate degree and good job, he said he would personally discuss with DA of Santa Clara County and request the DA to give me a diversion program. Just like Ray mentioned he was able to convince the DA to enroll me in the diversion program. I just finished my Community Accountability class and completed my 16 hour community service and have my case closed. I would recommend Ray to anyone who is trouble and need a second chance to move forward in their life. He is very informative, talented, patient and very very responsive. I am so glad I was able to work with him and even though this incident leaves a bad memory in my life I am so glad I got a second chance and will make a better use of it. Thank you Ray
