Law Office of Raphael M. Scheetz Immigration and Criminal Defense

We are incredibly grateful for Ray and the work he did on my husband’s case. Our situation was not simple, as my husband had a criminal background, but Ray was knowledgeable, confident, and honest from the very beginning. He helped us file for Adjustment of Status (permanent residency/green card) and guided us through every step of the process. Ray was always polite, respectful, and patient, answering all of our questions and making sure we understood what to expect. His timing, preparation, and attention to detail were excellent. He even attended the interview with us, which gave us so much peace of mind. Thanks to his experience and professionalism, my husband was approved.

We often want to believe the law is black and white—right or wrong. We assume that public servants within law enforcement agencies and the judicial system will conduct fair, thorough, and unbiased investigations, that our rights will protect us and that justice is a guarantee. Unfortunately, that's not always true. Finding yourself in a legal crisis can be overwhelmingly intimidating, to say the least. The justice system serves a multifaceted role in society, with selected individuals having specific duties and professional obligations, such as police, lawyers, jurors, & judges, and with that comes human error, personal bias, and political agendas. We see injustices every day because people often look for evidence that supports our own beliefs rather than the truth. When the 'system' fails

When I first met Ray I had a federal criminal case in Iowa. My first plea offering was 44-51 months. It was a very frightening time and Ray had confidence. I ended up getting just a 6 month sentence and am expected to only do half of that. I am very grateful for the hard work and experience of Ray. Anytime I needed to speak to Ray he always was available for me. Ray is an amazing lawyer and highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Mr. Sheetz for any legal matter. He helped me tremendously with my case. And has always been there for me anytime I need them. Don’t hesitate to call him! I’m extremely grateful for his help.

Ray is an excellent lawyer. He is professional, knowledgeable and experienced. It’s a pleasure to work with him. He helped us with a number of immigration issues and always delivered a great result. He clearly communicated through out the whole process and kept us informed every step of the way. We are extremely pleased about choosing to work with him and would give him 10 stars if we could. We would recommend Ray to anyone who needs legal help.
