Federal and State Court Experience

Based in New York City, we defend federal matters nationwide and state criminal cases throughout New York and New Jersey, subject to admission and local-counsel requirements.

Our attorneys have handled federal cases in all four federal districts in New York, as well as federal courts in New Jersey, Alaska, Oregon, Connecticut, South Carolina, Illinois, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Washington.

These are some of our Practice Areas.

Appeals

A conviction does not necessarily mark the end of a criminal case. New York’s appellate process provides an opportunity to challenge legal errors that may have affected the outcome of a trial, guilty plea, or sentencing. Through a direct criminal appeal, a higher court reviews the proceedings to determine whether the conviction or sentence should be reversed, modified, or otherwise corrected.

Criminal appeals are highly technical and require a thorough understanding of appellate law, strict procedural rules, and persuasive legal writing. Effective representation demands careful analysis of the trial record, identification of appealable issues, and precise arguments supported by controlling law.

Collateral Consequences

Although your criminal case may be over, the consequences of a state or federal conviction can continue for years. You may face SORA restrictions, difficulty obtaining employment, immigration consequences, professional licensing issues, or ongoing probation, parole, or federal supervised release.

Our attorneys help clients pursue post-conviction relief and address the lasting effects of a criminal record. Contact us for assistance with New York conviction sealing, CPL 440 motions, state and federal appeals, federal § 2255 motions, early termination of probation, parole, or supervised release, Article 78 proceedings, SORA modifications, immigration consequences, and professional licensing matters.

Domestic Violence

Domestic violence cases involve alleged offenses between spouses, intimate partners, relatives, or members of the same household. These cases may involve assault, menacing, criminal mischief, violations of orders of protection, custodial interference, offenses against children, elder abuse, and other criminal allegations arising within a family or intimate relationship.

Our attorneys understand how to navigate the legal and emotional complexities of New York City domestic violence cases. Because an arrest or order of protection can have immediate consequences for your home, family, and freedom, prompt legal representation is critical.

Federal Criminal Defense

Learning that you are the target of a federal investigation can be overwhelming. If federal agents have contacted you, executed a search warrant at your home or business, or obtained an indictment from a federal grand jury, contact our firm immediately.

Our attorneys have successfully defended hundreds of federal criminal cases, including matters involving wire fraud, bank fraud, healthcare fraud, real estate fraud, narcotics trafficking, murder, RICO, and other serious offenses. We represent clients at every stage of the federal process—from investigation and indictment through plea negotiations and trial—and have prior experience trying serious and complex cases in federal court before juries.

Sex Crimes & Revenge Porn

Sex crime allegations are among the most serious charges prosecuted in state and federal courts. Even before a case is resolved, an accusation can have devastating consequences for your reputation, career, family, and freedom.

Our attorneys provide discreet, strategic, and vigorous representation at every stage—from investigations and grand jury proceedings through plea negotiations and trial. We handle cases involving rape, date rape, sexual abuse, forcible touching, revenge pornography and privacy violations, criminal sexual acts, offenses involving children, child pornography, course of sexual conduct against a child, predatory sexual assault, and gender-motivated violence claims in New York City.

Drug Crimes

Our attorneys have extensive experience defending serious narcotics and controlled-substance charges in both state and federal courts. We have represented clients in prosecutions brought by district attorney’s offices, the New York City Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor, and federal law enforcement authorities.

Our practice includes cases involving possession, distribution, trafficking, manufacturing, conspiracy, and continuing criminal enterprise allegations. From the earliest stages of an investigation through grand jury proceedings, negotiations, and trial, we provide strategic and vigorous representation tailored to the facts of each case.

Government Investigations

Being contacted by the FBI or any federal or state law enforcement agency is a serious matter that should never be taken lightly. If you learn that you are the focus of a grand jury investigation, the stakes are even higher. Prompt legal representation is essential to safeguard your rights, evaluate potential exposure, and begin building a strong and strategic defense.

Our attorneys represent individuals and businesses in complex state and federal investigations. We have handled matters involving U.S. Attorney’s Offices, the New York County District Attorney’s Office, the FBI, DEA, IRS, ATF, SEC, EPA, DHS, Department of Defense, Offices of Inspector General, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. Our goal is to minimize criminal exposure and, whenever possible, prevent charges from being filed.

Traffic & Vehicular Offenses

New York State DWIs and other vehicular crimes are serious offenses. In addition to jail time on a NYC DWI criminal case, individuals may also lose their driving privileges and face steep fines. We will help with your NYC DWI arrest, Leandra’s Law DWI, Underage Driving DWI, Federal DWI, Reckless Driving, Driving with a Suspended License, Vehicular Manslaughter, and Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle cases.

Violent Crime

Violent crime allegations are among the most serious charges prosecuted in state and federal courts. A conviction can result in a lengthy prison sentence and lasting consequences for your employment, housing, reputation, family relationships, and freedom. Even before a case is resolved, the accusation alone can significantly disrupt your life.

Our attorneys defend clients against assault, arson, burglary, gang assault, kidnapping, robbery, murder, attempted murder, manslaughter, strangulation, criminally negligent homicide, sex offenses, weapons charges, and other serious violent-crime allegations. We also represent clients in complex federal cases involving robbery, racketeering, conspiracy, homicide, and firearms offenses.

White Collar Crimes

Federal and New York white-collar criminal cases often arise from a person’s business activities, financial transactions, or professional responsibilities. Although these offenses are generally nonviolent, they frequently involve allegations of fraud, concealment, breach of trust, or financial misconduct. Common charges include embezzlement, forgery, money laundering, schemes to defraud, larceny, securities and financial fraud, and public corruption.

Federal white-collar investigations are often extensive and may continue for months or even years before the target becomes aware of them. By that point, prosecutors and law enforcement agents may have already reviewed financial records, interviewed witnesses, and gathered substantial evidence. Early intervention by an experienced white-collar criminal defense attorney is therefore critical to protecting your rights, evaluating your exposure, and developing an effective defense strategy.
