Criminal Defense

We represent clients in all stages of criminal proceedings, from investigation and arrest to trial. Drawing on vast trial and prosecutorial experience, we deliver clear, strategic, and results-oriented advocacy for individuals and businesses facing serious criminal charges throughout New York.

We handle a full spectrum of criminal matters, such as:

  • Vehicular Crimes – Defense against charges involving driving while intoxicated, driving under the influence of drugs, license suspensions, and reckless driving.

  • Traffic Violations – Representation in traffic courts for speeding, license, and moving violations to protect driving privileges and minimize fines and penalties.

  • Financial and White-Collar Crimes – Defense of allegations involving fraud, forgery, larceny, and other misconduct affecting individuals and businesses.

  • Assault, Harassment, and Violent Offenses – Protecting clients accused of physical altercations, threats, domestic incidents, and other interpersonal disputes.

  • Weapons and Firearms Offenses – Defending against unlawful possession, transportation, or use of firearms.

  • Juvenile Offenses – Guiding young clients and families through sensitive proceedings with an emphasis on rehabilitation, record protection, and long-term opportunity.

We approach every case with precision and purpose—analyzing the evidence, challenging the prosecution’s narrative, and building smart, strategic defenses that deliver results. Whether reducing charges, securing a dismissal, or winning at trial, our focus never changes: protecting your rights, your record, and your future.
