What are NY’s Collateral Consequences and How Might They Affect Me?

Just about anyone who knows about criminal law knows that if you are convicted of a crime or plead to a crime, you will generally be punished in one of three ways: incarceration in a jail or prison, probation, or payment of a fine. Sometimes, you may be assigned community service, forced to attend a rehabilitation clinic, or you may be given another, more peculiar punishment.

I had an incredible experience working with this law firm for my case. Chris and Karen were so supportive and communicative during the process and it was such a pleasure speaking with them. I had a difficult case and I reached out to them with such short notice, only 24 hours in advance and they were able to show up to my court date the very next morning and also got my case dismissed. I was really impressed when they started to working on my case immediately while I was still there. They are very efficient and I felt like they really cared about my situation. Everyone in the office is really friendly and communicative and they made the process truly stress free. The office is really nice and the waiting area is pleasant as well. If you feel uneasy or unsure , be assured that this firm will have you feeling relieved and happy with the results. I would refer this firm to anyone in need of legal representation especially on late notice. Can wholeheartedly say they’re top notch lawyers. Thank you again
Response from the owner:We are glad we could be of help. Please reach out to us in the future if you have any need of further assistance.

Chris is the man. I had an issue related to school matters and I was stressed and didn’t know who to turn to. I found Chris, and he was so helpful. He knows what he’s doing and we were able to get the outcome we wanted. Thank you! Will not hesitate to use you again should I need to. Whether it’s educational law, personal injury, etc. Very responsive and attentive.
Response from the owner:Thank you Rachel. Loved working for you. So happy with the outcome. Best. Chris
