The Fast Law Difference
At The Fast Law Firm, we approach every case with the urgency and attention it deserves. We’re the law firm that slows down to get to know you. That begins with founder Elena Fast, whose leadership shapes how we defend our clients and how we treat them as individuals, not case numbers.
Elena is personally involved in building your defense from day one. She listens, evaluates the facts with care, and collaborates closely with our team to develop a strategy tailored to your goals. It’s a level of involvement you don’t often find in a city as fast-paced as New York, and it’s something our clients value.
We prepare thoroughly, communicate clearly, and take your case as seriously as you do. Prosecutors know when they’re up against a defense team that’s ready for trial. So do judges. If you’re ready to fight back, we’re prepared to help.





What’s at Stake?
Even before formal charges are filed, these allegations can:
-
Damage your career and education
-
Lead to social and family fallout
-
Trigger restraining orders or no-contact conditions
-
Result in sex offender registration if convicted
Without immediate action, you risk losing control over how your story is told.

Discreet, Relentless Legal Defense
We understand the sensitive nature of these accusations. That’s why every consultation is confidential, and every strategy is tailored to your unique situation. Our goal is to resolve your case with as little damage to your life as possible—whether that’s through dismissal, reduced charges, or trial defense.
