We welcome inquires from local or out of state attorneys to work with them on an ?Of Counsel? or Local Counsel Basis, for any trials, depositions or appearances that may be requested or required.   Special arrangements can be made on a case by case basis, depending upon whether you wish to engage us on your client?s behalf, or you wish to associate with us as a requirement of a Pro Haec Vici representation.  We are admitted to and practice in all of the Courts of the State of New York, and of the Federal District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and the Second Circuit Court of  Appeals. We specialize in the defense of all Criminal matters, including complex fraud or narcotics cases, homicides and felonious sexual offenses, administrative trials before licensing boards and commissions, and contested matters in general. We are professional, courteous, concerned and ?available? in our dealings with clients and will represent you or your firm in the manner you would expect and require.

Whether acting of counsel on your behalf or as local counsel for you, we are able to draw upon an extensive roster of adjunct litigation professionals, such as Investigators with expertise in everything from ?street investigations? to locating funds in off-shore locations, and everything in-between.   We maintain relationships with a variety of Health and Psychiatric professionals, and with Diversion resources and Drug and Alcohol Rehabs through-out the state.  Whether your client needs a Ballistics or Serology expert, or a respected Polygraph Operator, we can assist you in giving your client first class representation here in New York.

Our fees to the bar are competitive and reasonable, depending upon the extent of our assistance.
