Client Testimonies

Many criminal cases can be resolved through negotiations between a seasoned criminal lawyer and a reasonable prosecutor. But not all cases can or should be resolved in that manner, and the very best criminal lawyers are veterans of criminal litigation with extensive experience in pre-trial motion practice, suppression hearings and jury trials. Our trial abilities have been honed by years of battle in courtrooms throughout the metropolitan New York area. We have successfully tried jury cases before some of the toughest and well-known judges in the nation. We have successfully handled criminal cases of virtually every conceivable variety.
