BACK CRIMINAL LAW:
*DRUG OFFENSES - Drug crimes can range in severity
from violations to crimes that could carry a life sentence. If you have
been arrested or are under investigation for any drug offense, you
should contact an attorney immediately to preserve your rights, as
having any drug-related conviction on your record can effect your future
including your ability to secure student loans and other types of
federal funding. With some convictions, you can also loose your
privilege to drive in New York State. I handle all types of drug
offenses including possession, distribution, trafficking, cultivation,
manufacturing, and importation.
*DWI/DWAI:
If you are facing drunk driving or driving under the
influence of drug charges, you need an experienced criminal attorney
making sure your constitutional rights are protected. There is no
simple plea to DWI/DWAI offense, as it can immediately affect your right
to drive, especially in refusal cases.
*TRAFFIC OFFENSES:
Although not always thought of as crimes, traffic
tickets can have serious criminal consequences. Some traffic-related
cases are misdemeanors and can become part of a criminal record, and it
is crucial to have experienced legal help. I will protect your rights
so that you obtain the best possible outcome.
*MISDEMEANORS:
A misdemeanor is a crime normally punishable by less
than a year in a jail. These can include Harassment, Assault, Criminal
Contempt, Obstruction of Justice, Resisting Arrest, Trespass, Criminal
Possession of a Controlled Substance, Criminal Possession of Marijuana
and weapons charges.
*VIOLATIONS:
While not considered "crimes" by New York State, some
violations can still seriously effect your future, and you can face
penalties of up to 15 days in jail and/or fines.
FELONIES:
Felonies range in class (or degree) from an "F" to an
"A", and the effects of such a conviction can be just as varying.
Having a felony conviction can prohibit your ability to find employment,
be in the military and receive federal/state funding and licensing (such
as for being a teacher, nurse, pharmacist, attorney, doctor, etc...).
It is very important to have your rights preserved at every stage of a
felony prosecution, and your attorney having criminal law experience is
extremely helpful.
REAL ESTATE:
Buying or selling a home or property?? Have piece of mind knowing that
your rights and interests are being protected!
CORPORATE:
Drafting of contracts, review and revision of
contracts, and making sure that your business is set up and run in the
fashion that best suits your needs.
WILLS:
Having a will is something that people put off,
because no one likes to think about not being around, but it is one of
the most important things you can do to protect your loved ones in case
of a tragedy. To be considered valid and hold up in Court, there are
many different legal requirements in New York State. Let me help
walk you through the steps and give you and your family assurance.. |
