Claimed Lawyer Profile

Biography

As a former D.A. in Brooklyn, I've seen it all when it comes to fighting traffic violations, reckless driving charges, and criminal proceedings in New York. I am not going to say things like "I will represent you zealously" -- every attorney should do that. What I will promise you transparency, trust, and a prompt response to any questions you have as I represent your case. I understand that fighting a criminal case or traffic violation in New York City can be stressful, time-consuming, and difficult to manage. I make sure to respect the needs of my clients. I will always return calls personally and I will appear in court on your behalf.
