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.
