I have protected the livelihood, reputation, and freedom of hundreds of people just like you. I know how important it is that your lawyer be there for you. Everyone that I represent receives my personal attention. I offer flat fees that include a trial at no additional charge in almost every case, so that you can know from very early on what something is going to cost.

My practice is strictly limited to areas of the law that matter to defendants, so that you know that you have a lawyer experienced in the specific areas that matter to you. I practice criminal and traffic defense, and I also handle peace order and protective order cases because the issue in restraining order cases is almost always whether someone committed one of a list of criminal offenses.

I had a case and I called Raymond. He was honest and very polite he made me fell safe and secure. He explained everything in reality and I respect that about him. No false hope was given. My charges got dropped and I thank him.

I contacted him through the internet and told them it was a DC issue but he still called. It was only a traffic ticket but I wanted to fight it and he kept telling me it is not worth fighting and his cost would be more than it was worth. The cite I found him though was NOLA and I asked them if there was a charge and all they said it is up to the attorney. All he kept saying is send me 150.00 for the little to no advice he gave and even said he did not know the DC law. I since looked at his reviews and most are ok but than I looked at his cases and most are ll District Court cases and none of the

If you are in trouble with your interlock system.. this is the man you want to go to! Not only was he gracious enough to take my phone call immediately in the morning (first thing after my 4th violation), he calmed me down and told me he would take care of this. Now I understand that lawyers cannot guarantee anything, but he eased my mind and took me out of panic mode; Which is exactly what I needed in that moment. He was then available to meet me after my hectic work schedule at 5:30pm, staying late to accommodate me in me time of need. He took every detail into consideration, responded to all

I contacted Mr. Anthracite’s law office after my son received a protective order in the very early hours of 11 August 2017. We met Mr. Anthracite in his office that afternoon, with a court date that was set within days, and he got down to business the moment we sat down. He provided the pros and cons of either fighting the order or consenting to it, and my son made the decision to fight it. We provided Mr. Anthracite a background history of the parties involved, and submitted all requested documentation throughout the weekend, and when the court date arrived he was definitely prepared! He handled

Raymond Anthracite did a great job for me and my case. he got every little detail and was concerned for my well being. He gave me every little detail about possible outcomes, strategies, and things I can do to help my case. Raymond helped me get a lesson charge then what I have gotten because of all the fighting he did for me. It truly felt like he cared about my well being and would recommend him to my friends.

I had to go to court earlier this year and he was the BEST man suited for the job. He not only made sure that the charges were dismissed but also that I didn't have to pay any fees. He's nice, sincere, and really cares about the people he works with. I would definitely use his services again if needs be.
Thanks again for your help!!
