Thomas Michael Maas

Tom Maas doesn't just practice criminal law- it's his passion and calling in life. My case was extremely complex and Tom's command of the intricate details was amazing and unparalleled. Once my case commenced I had 100% of his time and attention. His court presence was commanding yet subtle and his l...aser-like focus allowed him to make crucial real-time adjustments. His paralegal Karen was equally amazing. Her unrivaled organizational skills enable Tom to perfect his craft. I have no reservations recommending Tom Maas as your criminal attorney.

It is difficult to put into words just how terrifying the potential for state prison is when facing your very first run-in with the law. I was lost, with absolutely no idea what to do. I hired a lawyer, who turned out to be a nightmare, and when I went to replace him, good fortune smiled on me when I... found Maas and Russo. I met with Thomas Maas, who did not treat me like a piece of garbage; he treated me with respect, compassion, empathy, and a determination to do all he could to help me. I hired him on the spot, and it was the smartest thing I have probably ever done in my life. He was very communicative throughout the process, explaining things to me clearly and concisely. He never sugar-coated anything, always explaining things in a way where I was left with a realistic, grounded view of the situation, yet also cautious optimism for the potential of a favorable outcome. Thomas Maas advised me to hire a forensics expert to look into my case, and I believe that the combination of Mr. Maas' abilities and demeanor, coupled with a very favorable report to the court by the expert, was the reason the prosecutor decided to drop the case. The process took a year and a half, but the sense of relief over the outcome is truly overwhelming. I can't imagine anyone who could ever match Thomas Maas for intelligence, compassion, and professional excellence. Words will never be able to fully express my sincere gratitude.

I hired Thomas mass out of all the lawyers in the Bay Area. I was looking for a lawyer I could trust my life with. I’ve hired lawyers before and got played out of my money with no positive results. Mr. mass took genuine care of my case and kept me updated through out the entire process. The charges w...ere dropped thank god!

Thank you Stacey for everything you did for me my son my wife and myself will always be in debt with you! Thank you mass team for everything thank you!!

Tom is very knowledgeable about DUI defense and diligent in reviewing and evaluating his client's case. He is strategic in navigating the court and the DMV from the beginning to achieve the best possible outcome for his client. He is also clearly respected by other officers of the court. When he sa...w a possible defense in my case, he pursued it tirelessly - which of course took a lot of additional time but with no additional cost to the flat fee I paid (worth every penny). Tom patiently explained the possible outcomes with blunt honesty. He was already pursuing the best sentence options for me when he defensed the case! He did not stop there, but pursued an acquittal so that I could get my driving privileges restored right away. Through all of this, his staff was very patient and kind with my frequent, stressed-out calls and questions. I hope you don't need a criminal defense attorney, but I have no reservations in recommending this group to handle your case.
