Following a horrific vehicle accident, my nephew received the harshest possible charges for an event that we felt was not deserving of such excessive retaliation by the state. He was assigned a public defender who, while good-natured and good-willed, seemed increasingly incapable of doing more for my nephew than simply going through the motions and hoping for some good luck. I decided that I needed to help get a more determined and effective attorney. I had some contacts and got numerous recommendations for "the best" attorneys in Phoenix. Most did not even bother to respond to my inquiries. Someone recommended Marci Kratter, and after reading her statement of purpose and values on her website, I felt we had found the right lawyer for my nephew. I asked her to look at the case and give it to me straight. She responded that this was a terrible situation made more terrible by the egregiousness of the charges against my nephew and that she felt certain she could help. She offered to split her fee with another attorney, Larry Kazan, who was an expert in handling vehicular cases. The result of their efforts was a drastically reduced sentence deal for my nephew, one much more commensurate with what had actually occurred. In the course of the proceedings, which lasted much of a year, Marci was ALWAYS available, even during her off hours or on vacation, to help with new situations or simply to give us straight-from-the-shoulder information on where things stood. She was not only a masterful attorney, she engaged with us on the most human level, and I would recommend her to anyone seeking brilliant, humane, and attentive representation, and I would do so without reservation.

The court appointed attorney said " 22 years is what you are looking at and I've looked over the case and I agree with the DA, you can't win". These were the second worst words my son had heard since the motorcycle accident he and his girlfriend had in Oct. The worst thing he had heard was that the love of his life had not survived the accident. This court appointed attorney had not even used his own accident reconstructionist and relied on a report that was filled with mistakes. I knew that I could never trust this person that was obviously not going to try to help my son.
I began my search for an attorney and through a recommendation from someone, I found Marci . The minute I met her I knew she was the one for us. She was genuine, she told me what she could do and skipped all of the fluff. As soon as we hired her, she was on the case and began finding mistakes that had been made by the police, and the facts began to come to light. Marci brought on invaluable experts to prove that this was a horrific, tragic accident, not murder. Marci began to unravel the DA's case and there was no denying the truth in the end, on either side of the courtroom.
Marci has such a presence in the courtroom, respected by other attorney's and most importantly by the judges we went before. She was no nonsense, always prepared with our side of the debate, and professional, never flustered by anything that might have been thrown at her. Her confidence and her eloquence is a thing of beauty.
Marci showed my family and Sam's girlfriend's family the utmost respect and empathy for what we were all going through and never once made a derogatory statement to anyone whenever there could have been a cheap shot made for emphasis. I really appreciated how compassionate she was during the case.
Marci has worked tirelessly on this case and was available for us anytime, night or day, on the weekends and even while she was on vacation. She kept us updated with any changes and checked in on us regularly to see how we were holding up. Not only professional, but personable. She will be a friend to our family forever.
In conclusion, Marci is a miracle worker. She turned this case around for my son through hard work and perseverance. When it looked hopeless, she brought us through with a win. Instead of 22 years, my son received 5 years, which was fair and just. She did it, she proved miracles are possible when she is working for you.
I can't thank her enough, we are eternally grateful, Marci. I recommend you to everyone. You are not only a great lawyer, but you are a great person and friend. Thank you from my family to yours.

My case turned out even better than I was hoping for. If you're in any legal trouble and need a tough hard-working and caring attorney I recommend Mari Kratter. Can't go wrong with Mrs. Kratter." Happy client "Byron

I first met Marci Kratter in Superior Court and just happened to observe her interacting with her client. I was immediately impressed by her warmth, patience, kindness, and the one to one attention she provided to her client (s). As both my son and I were dissatisfied by the service afforded to us by our present counsel and looking for new representation, I asked for her card and we decided to call her.
That call was the best decision we could have made!! Once Marci took on our case, there was a stark contrast in the level of service or should I say lack of service; we had been receiving from our assigned attorney.
Marci gives 200% when she takes on a client! She is experienced, compassionate, detail-oriented, hardworking, and does what she says. She genuinely cares about her clients and their families. You will have access to her 24-hours per day. When she says call me anytime, she means it! She answers the phone and responds promptly to your calls whether she is in town, out of town, or otherwise engaged.
Because of Marci's experience, dedication and perseverance; our case was Dismissed.
If you are looking for someone who has honor, integrity, and is not afraid to fight for you; then you should call Marci Kratter. We HIGHLY recommend her without hesitation and can't thank her enough for helping us win our case.

In 2015, I went from being charged with 4 charges to being indicted on 8 charges ranging from felonies 2-5 of Asualt, Assisting a criminal street gang, Threat and intimidation and possession of narcotics, being that I was married to a police officer, they were ready to throw the book at me as a first time offender. I desperately needed to be represented as my life was at stake with 3,young children. Marci, was more than willing to take my case on, without a doubt! She immediatley contacted the assigned prosecutor as I litterally hired her! Demanding that my car be released from police impound and had been for over a month, the following day my car was released. She presented the facts of the case in such a professional manner and provided me with the emotional and compassion support as I so needed! I was told that I would be facing 10 years in prison Marci, made sure that wasn't going to happen! I was sentenced to one year of probation. This woman not only cares for her clients, but to show so much support as an attorney is beyond me. You could contact her directly and always recieve an answer to any of my questions in a timely manner, which i loved about her. Most attorneys offices you deal with a paralegal not with Marci!! I would definitely recommend her to anyone that ever found themselves in my position. She is highly skilled and no beating around the bush the most up from and honest attorney I have ever dealt with. She's very down to earth type of lawyer, what else can I say she's the best and YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED IN HER WORK!! With all this being said what are you waiting for??! Call her!

Marci, is a very good no nonsense lawyer. She is direct and to the point. I really appreciated her honesty, ethics and dedication. She never gave up even when we were losing hope. We were a fairly small client in her world but she never treated us as anything but her top priority. She came highly recommended to us and we would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a criminal lawyer.

Marci A. Kratter handled my criminal case. Upon the consultation with Ms. Kratter and explaining my case to her I was confident that she had the knowledge and experience to help me in my dilemma. I love that Marci fights your case as if you are her family. Also that she is understanding, and considerate of the fact that you are only human. The outcome of my case was 20 days of probation and 4 hours of community service and that end result was only because the lawyer I had initially messed up my case. If I got into another legal battle which definitely won't be anytime soon Marci would be my first call.
