Michael is a genuinely sincere lawyer, who is wasting no time to be upfront with who he is and what he can do for you. No sugar coated, just straight to the point. I was wrongfully accused of a crime by abandoning by boat in my own back yard. I was judged, and my boat was towed for demolition before I was giving a fair trial, which violating my right of innocence before proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt. Michael got the state attorney drop my case before the trial. I am grateful to Michael and his team. Thank you.

I asked a close friend for a recommendation for a lawyer to help me with my first legal matter and they spoke highly of Mr. Michael Raheb. He’s very outspoken and truthfully to you, will inform you on everything that’s needs to be done and will be very honest. I did everything he told me to do and now I’m about to be a freeman. I highly recommend him.

I really got lucky I called him first and ran with it. I don’t understand the legal process. So he really stepped up and explained everything nicely. Went into the courtroom representing my best interest. I truly know you need a lawyer who don’t take crap and doesn’t run you around, and he was there through it all. He is a fighter.

Michael was wonderful from the beginning and all the way through the court date. He also even walked me into the probation office after court and instructed me on what to do there as well. He successfully reduced my penalties to that of a first time offender, even though I had a previous DUI. He also gave me excellent life coaching and advice that I greatly value in addition to his legal services. Michael and his staff were readily available and called, texted and emailed me continuously with updates. He's the best! Hands down.
