Reviews
Lawyers of great demeanor and they have many years of experience. I found them competent and honest.
Helene and Steve were the most helpful, perseverant, and supportive professionals I have experienced to date. They made the impossible possible and performed nothing short of a miracle. I would highly recommend them for your legal needs, they are experienced and well renowned making for a great fit. I was allegedly arrested for distribution and possession of marijuana. Helene successfully entered me into drug court despite the difficulty doing so and worked very intelligently to service me.
Friend of my husband told us about Ms Raisman when to her office because I was arrested she had a consultation with me and my husband she told us she can help me with my case I just need to tell her the truth and I did was very nervous because I’m a green card holder ms raisman was on top of my case she went to court on my behalf she called me to inform me how the case was going ,what I like about ms raisman she never judge me for the mistake I made in my life she encouraged me I’m so happy I chose Raisman&Raisman she get my case nolle prosequi . Thank you so ms Helene& mr Steven.
I had a case in regards to DUI and my previous lawyer did a terrible job. I could tell they were not concerned with actually fighting or dropping the case but were more interested in getting a plea deal which would look good enough and require minimal work. In my profession I need a clean record and Ms. Raisman took that personally. From the beginning I knew this would be a different experience and she didn’t settle for less. Everything was completely dismissed. The case was bogus to begin with but Unfortunately things are set up in a way today where the truth isn’t always the primary objective, and for that reason you still need someone very capable in your corner. Thanks again!
My lawyer reopen a case that was closed for me wish that was a felony and I didn't no. It was a felony at first but it was affecting my immigration status and they did fix
I was desperate! I was about to lose my healthcare professional license. My nerves were completely shot because I am a single parent of 3 and the only bread winner in my household so if these criminal charges that I was facing didn't disappear like "Houdini" I would have lost everything as I can't have any felony record in my profession. I needed to find the BEST and that's what I got! I started to search on line and look for an attorney. I called several offices, but I was not comfortable with the demeanor of the attorneys on the other end of the line. I then called Raisman & Raisman and I didn't get the run around! Made an appointment and met with Helene Raisman AKA Wolf in Sheeps clothing. Helene Raisman made me feel very comfortable, did not judge me, straight shooter, doesn't promise anything she can't deliver, doesn't sugar coat anything! I put my lively hood, my entire life in the hands of a stranger who turned out to be Heaven sent a Blessing from GOD a GUARDIAN ANGEL and her name is Helene Raisman. She GOT EVERYTHING DISMISSED, Helene kept me informed of everything, Helene advocated on my behalf fantastic lit-a-GATOR! I was also nervous of how much this was going to cost me because I had not worked for a year I was soley taking care of my disabled son and had gone through my savings, literally I was an emotional and financial mess Helene Raisman put all my fears to rest her prices for what she delivers are extremely reasonable! She gave me piece of mind, and secured my future!
I felt like one of the family...Helene and Steve made defending me so easy...Very professional...concerned about you ,every month to the way of freedom and personal achievements and life changes..
I met Helene Raisman when I was 16 years old. I am almost 40 now. She tried very hard back then to give me good advice unfortunately I didn't listen. My most recent cast she handled was a 2011 DUI charge. After taking the deposition from the officer it was found that I was pulled over illegally. The DUI was dropped. She also handled the DMV because they were going to suspend my license for refusing to take the breath test. Everything was taken care of and I have my license today. Everyone knows how important it is to have a license if you live in Florida. I am so thankful to have had Helene Raisman as my lawyer and I know that anyone about to do the same will not be disappointed.
Helene will fight for you like a gladiator in the courtroom. She is dedicated to your case as if it is going to have a huge impact on her life and family. She truly understands. And she wins!
Although this woman seems nice and quiet in side a court room shes hell on wheels to all those people that think law is a joke this woman will change your mind 100% love the authenticness of this lawyer no doubt in my mind she can beat any charge
