Yan E. Shrayberman: Hi, I'm Yan Shrayberman, founder of Crown Law Firm here in Fresno, California. I want to take a few minutes to introduce myself and tell you a little bit about how I approach representing clients — because choosing the right attorney may be the most important decision you make.
I've been a criminal defense and family law attorney for over ten years. I'm licensed in California, Washington, and Florida, and I focus my practice here in Fresno and throughout the Central Valley. I was named a Super Lawyer every year from 2020 through 2026, which I'm proud of — but what matters most to me is what happens in the courtroom and at the negotiating table for my clients.
On the criminal defense side, I handle everything from DUI charges and drug crimes to violent felonies, federal cases, and white-collar matters. Every case is different. A first-time DUI for a college student carries different stakes than a federal firearm charge for someone with a prior record. I take the time to understand exactly where you are, what the government's case looks like, and where the weaknesses are — then I build a strategy around that.
On the family law side, I represent clients in divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support, and property division cases. Family law cases are emotionally difficult. I've seen what happens when attorneys fan the flames just to generate more billing hours. That's not how I operate. I fight hard for your interests, but I also give you honest advice about when it makes sense to reach an agreement and when it makes sense to go to court.
One thing I want to be clear about: I'm the attorney who will actually be working on your case. You won't be handed off to a paralegal or a junior associate. When you call our office, you talk to me. When we go to court, I'm there with you.
If you or someone you love has been arrested, charged, or is facing a difficult family law situation, I encourage you to call us right away. The earlier we get involved, the more options we have. Our first consultation is free. You can reach me directly at (559) 779-2315.
I look forward to meeting you and finding out how Crown Law Firm can help protect what matters most to you.
