Facing criminal charges can be one of the most daunting experiences a person may go through. It brings uncertainty, stress, and the weight of a legal system that can feel overwhelming. Whether it’s your first arrest or you’ve been through the process before, you deserve a defense team that treats you with dignity and takes your case seriously.
At The Fast Law Firm, we approach each case with focus, preparation, and a deep respect for our clients’ rights. We take the time to understand your side of the story and develop a defense that reflects the facts, the law, and your individual circumstances.
What We Defend Against
We represent clients facing a wide range of charges, from non-violent offenses to serious felony crimes. Some of the cases we handle include:
- Gun and weapon possession
- Assault and violent crimes
- Drug possession and distribution
- Sex crimes, including rape, criminal sexual act, forcible touching, and child pornography
- Domestic violence charges
- Robbery and burglary
- Grand larceny and theft-related offenses
Whether your case is in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, or anywhere in the NYC metro area, we bring a sharp, focused defense strategy tailored to your situation.
Possible Defenses to Criminal Charges
No two cases are exactly alike, and the right defense depends on the facts, the law, and how the charges were brought. At The Fast Law Firm, we look at every angle to determine the strongest way to challenge the prosecution’s case. Some common defense strategies include:
- Illegal search or seizure – If police violated your rights, certain evidence may be excluded.
- Lack of intent – Many charges require proof that you acted knowingly or willfully.
- Mistaken identity – Eyewitness testimony is often unreliable, especially in fast-moving situations.
- False accusations – In cases involving personal relationships, such as domestic violence, we look closely at the motives behind the allegations.
- Alibi or lack of evidence – If the state can’t prove you were there or can’t tie you to the crime, the charges may not hold up.
We tailor our defense to your unique situation, always working to reduce or dismiss the charges where possible.
Our Approach to Criminal Defense
When you hire us, we get to work immediately. First, we listen to your side of the story. Then we conduct a thorough review of the evidence and apply the defense strategy that best fits the facts of your case. If the police violated your rights during a search, we will work to get that evidence thrown out. If a witness is unreliable, we will show why.
Sometimes, we’re able to negotiate reduced charges or even dismissal. Other times, we take the case to trial. Either way, we’re prepared and fully committed to protecting your future.
We also make sure you understand what’s happening at each stage. Our team will keep you informed and help you make the decisions that are right for you.
