Dealing with the power of the State to arrest and prosecute you isn't something that anyone should try to deal with on their own. More important than any other factor, who you retain as a lawyer to defend you can determine how likely you are to have your case fairly and completely adjudicated. Fortunately, in the United States and particularly in New York State, the law provides you with a broad range of rights and protections that are designed to assure that the State does not abuse its tremendous police powers. Asserting and protecting all of these rights is the job of your attorney (for more information on your rights click here). Choosing an attorney who will aggressively assert your rights, listen to you and make sure that all the facts associated with the case are investigated is critical to minimizing the risk you will be convicted of an offense.

Whether you need a criminal defense attorney for help with a DWI or DUI, misdemeanor or felony, a traffic ticket; or if you need help with an Elder Law question (wills, trusts, estate and Medicaid planning) question, I am committed to providing my clients with the knowledge, integrity and skill they need to fully protect their interests, and doing so at a reasonable fee. My office handles criminal defense throughout the low Hudson Valley includingOrange County, Ulster County, Sullivan County, Putnam County and Dutchess County; I also provide legal counsel to elder law clients in Orange County, Putnam County and Ulster County.
