We know how prosecutors build cases—because we each used to be one. Before founding our own criminal defense practice, we built distinguished careers as prosecutors in New York. All three of us served for several years in the Bronx County District Attorney’s Office in New York City—one of the busiest and most challenging prosecutorial environments in the country. Additionally, we have served other counties in New York, such as Broome, Rockland and Richmond. Those experiences gave us an inside look at how police and prosecutors piece cases together and, just as importantly, where they often fall short.

Throughout our prosecutorial careers, we have handled thousands of cases ranging from traffic offenses, violations, and misdemeanors, to serious non-violent and violent felonies such as manslaughter and homicide. This extensive experience gives us a deep understanding of how police and prosecutors investigate, charge, and pursue criminal cases. Our knowledge of criminal law and procedure, proven ability to analyze evidence, negotiate plea agreements, develop trial strategies, and effectively litigate complex matters, earned us respect from judges, colleagues, and even opposing counsel.

Our comprehensive knowledge spans every stage of the criminal process—from the alleged incident occurrence, investigation, arrest, arraignment, preliminary hearing, and grand jury stages, to the plea bargaining, motion practice, hearing, trial, sentencing, and appeal stages. Our attorneys are also well-versed in the sweeping reforms to New York’s criminal laws enacted in January 2020, including their nuanced application and ongoing impact on criminal litigation.

Today, we draw on our prosecutorial experience and insider knowledge of the criminal justice system to aggressively defend our clients’ rights and protect their futures. Our first hand courtroom experience, strategic insight, and deep understanding of how criminal cases are investigated and prosecuted give us a distinct advantage in building strong defenses and delivering powerful representation—even in the most complex and high-stakes cases.
