If you are looking for the best federal criminal defense attorney, we highly recommend Alan Baum! We hired Alan on a case for our son. We were very diligent in our interviews with perspective attorneys to take our case. Alan was already highly recommended and we are very pleased with our decision to work with the best of the best. Alan has major experience with federal defense cases with a great success rate and knows how to navigate the system with the best results. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, diligent, truthful without sugar coating, knows how to communicate with prosecutors, judges & all federal court matters. A major factor for us is that he truly cares and shows compassion towards our son and our family. His personal concerns and understanding for our son & family has definitely helped bring a calm to us knowing we are in excellent hands. Alan gives it his all with professional excellence, as well as, the much-needed personal touch. Our son’s case is not completed, yet we feel very confident Alan is covering all bases and will get the best results possible. He is an excellent, top notch federal criminal defense attorney. If you are looking for a federal criminal defense attorney with great experience, knowledge, action, compassion, truth, and who goes the extra mile, you will be in the best hands possible with Alan Baum.

Alan turned a possible lengthy sentence to an incredibly palatable one. He kept me updated on a regular basis and knows the federal legal system very well.

In 2018 I was facing my first ever Federal drug offense and Alan was the only lawyer out of half a dozen that would take my case! He was very straightforward and honest about what he could do for me. Turns out he gave me my life back as my charge carried a 10 year minimum sentence. 2 years clean and sober, I can proudly say I avoided prison all together because of a sentencing alternative program called CASA. Thanks again Alan.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Alan and immediately he came off as someone who has a lot of experience. After speaking to many different attorney's, I had some fast ball questions and Allan's answers were spot on. He knows how to view the situation from a multidimensional perspective. I recommend giving Alan a call if you're on the fence and don't know who to go with.

Alan did a great job representing me. It was a complex case and he was able to help me navigate the most difficult time in my life by giving me clear information about what to expect, along with negotiating a favorable plea deal. Another plus is his experience with the system and being able to give practical advice about "how things actually work," which is very helpful. I highly recommend.

I went through several attorneys before finding Mr. Baum. I was in a serious bind and other legal counsel had made me feel very nervous about my situation and what it could lead to. My only regret is that I did not find Alan sooner. He has so much experience that he knows most of the judges and most of the prosecutors - or at least they have heard of him. Knowing the prosecution isn't going to set you free, but it's important to know how each personality operates when you are either negotiating or fighting. Alan knew how to approach my case like a chess match. This level of experience is invaluable and it's something that in my opinion, you simply cannot put a price on. I immediately felt comfortable the first time I spoke with Mr. Baum and throughout my case, which lasted several years. He was always there to answer my calls and if he wasn't he called me back promtly. I can honestly say that I did not have one phone call or meeting with Alan that left me feeling uneasy. I ended up not serving any jail time which was incredible because the first indictment suggested 10 years. Needless to say I highly recommend this gentleman to represent you or your family members. You've found the right guy.

I was arrested out of state and a very long way from home. I was terrified. I met with Alan and felt hopeful and relieved for the first time in many months. Alan had to travel across the US several times for all the pre and final court dates. He kept me informed and always encouraged me to remain positive. The outcome was better than I had hoped for. My life is back on track. Thanks Alan!

Unfortunately I found myself needing legal counsel for a federal criminal I stupidly committed in the spring of 2008. I was looking at the real possibility of going to federal prison for 12 plus years. I hired Mr. Baum to represent me. This turned out to be the best move possible. Mr. Baum immediately found me medical help for the tremendous amount of emotional stress I was under. The government waited an additional five plus years to actually charge me, all the while Mr. Baum stayed by my side. Mr. Baum was always honest and forthright with me the entire time. The government did offer me a plea deal. Mr. Baum explained the risk and benefits of taking a plea deal and of going to trial. I decided the best move was to take a plea deal, like the vast majority of all federal cases like mine do. However, with Alan’s legal expertise I was able to provide a very strong defense to the court for leniency in my judgment. In the end thanks to Alan I received an incredibly light sentence. I would recommend Mr. Baum to anyone facing a federal charge without any hesitation.
