DUI Defense
A DWI conviction can lead to jail time, costly fines, and long-term driver's license suspension. We handle DWAI and DUI with drugs and alcohol, including high BAC and repeat offenses.
Misdemeanor Defense
It's important to take misdemeanor charges seriously. Misdemeanors create criminal records just like felonies, and can lead to expensive restitution and lengthy jail sentences.
Parole Violation
If you're found guilty of violating parole, you can be sent back to prison. You need an aggressive law firm to protect your hard-earned freedom.
Robbery & Theft
Robbery involves violence or threats, like mugging. Theft or "larceny" ranges from shoplifting to identity theft to stealing cash and property. We handle petit and grand larceny.
Sex Crimes
If you're convicted of a sex crime, you may have to join the Sex Offender Registry. Our attorneys fight allegations ranging from rape and sexual assault to prostitution and child abuse.
Burglary
Burglary is a kind of theft that involves breaking and entering. Our lawyers handle allegations including criminal trespass and possession of burglar's tools.
Domestic Violence
Domestic violence is a broad category that includes crimes like assault, stalking, menacing, strangulation, and violating restraining orders.
Firearm Possession
Criminal possession of a firearm can lead to felony charges under New York's laws. Our attorneys work on cases involving illegal handguns, shotguns, revolvers, and more.
Motor Vehicle Theft
Stealing an operable vehicle is grand larceny, the most serious form of theft. When you're facing felony charges, you need aggressive legal representation.
Probation Violation
People convicted of violating probation lose their freedoms and privileges, face expensive fines, and can be sentenced to prison. Let us investigate your probation officer's claims.
Traffic Violations
Many people don't challenge traffic violations, but infractions that seem like "no big deal" can turn into points on your record, increased insurance fees, and even license suspension.
Hate Crimes
If you're convicted of a hate crime, the offense grading rises by one full level. That can add years to a prison sentence, or even turn a misdemeanor into a felony.
Possession of Stolen Property
Possessing stolen property can lead to penalties almost as harsh as the penalties for committing theft. You need an experienced defense attorney on your side.
Drug Possession
We handle misdemeanor and felony drug possession offenses involving marijuana, LSD, heroin, ecstasy, cocaine, prescription drugs, and other narcotics.
Immigration Crimes
Illegal entry or reentry into the United States is a federal crime. Convicted immigrants face massive fines, long prison sentences, and possible deportation.
Homicide Defense
Homicide is a broad category that includes murder, manslaughter, negligent homicide, vehicular manslaughter, vehicular homicide, and aggravated charges.
Prostitution Defense
We represent clients charged with prostitution, including related offenses like sex trafficking, promoting prostitution, and patronizing a prostitute.
Vehicular Assault
Vehicular assault is a felony under New York law, and often overlaps with intoxicated driving or DWI. Our defense lawyers handle simple and aggravated charges.
Weapons Charges
New York law makes numerous guns, knives, and other weapons illegal to sell, use, or possess. Most of these crimes are categorized as felonies.
