I engaged Lawyer Mr Rajan for my molest case, allegation that I molested a female passenger in a public bus, an offence under the Penal code. Mr Rajan made representations to the Police & Attorney General’s office during the investigations for no further action against me or to issue me a warning. I was given a warning based on Mr Rajan’s representations. If not for my Mr Rajan’s advice & representations, I would have gone to Prison, lost my job, income & my family would have been destroyed. Mr Rajan is an experienced senior criminal lawyer who has gone out of his way to help me. He even met me during the weekends & late evenings to take detailed instructions to make the representations. I came to understand from my friends that in many cases like mine Mr Rajan has succeeded to get either a warning or acquittals in court. I wish Mr Rajan every success & would recommend him to others to engage him as your Lawyer.
I engaged Mr Rajan’s services for a very delicate matter – renunciation of a religious faith. It was 1 July 2022 Friday, 2.00pm and many law firms would be closed by 5pm and weekends too. The person who needed to renounce his religion had only days to live. After several calls, many rejections and ‘we’ll call you back later’, my frantic hunt for legal help brought me to Mr Rajan. After explaining my needs – legal issues and financial limitations – he agreed to render his services at a cost within my limited budget. Our agreement was reached at 3.45pm and within the hour, the necessary legal paperwork was completed. Because the person who required his services was in hospital and could not come to his office, Mr Rajan made a trip to his hospital bed at 6.30pm to complete the needful, WITHOUT extra cost and AFTER his office hours. I could never thank him enough as it dawned on me that Mr Rajan sincerely wanted to help the person who required his services, to fulfill his final wish. On 3 July 2022 Sunday, 10.41am, this person passed away peacefully, knowing that his final wish would be fulfilled. May Mr Rajan be blessed throughout his lifetime. I would recommend Mr Rajan at a heartbeat. My eternal thanks to him.
I engaged Mr Rajan as my lawyer for my case in court for possession of corrosive weapon and harassment charges.
