Skilled, Aggressive Criminal Defense in New York City
Property crimes such as robbery, burglary, larceny and various forms of theft can be challenging to investigate and prosecute. As two former high-ranking officials in the Kings County District Attorney's Office — now dedicated to defending New Yorkers against criminal charges and injustice — we know first-hand that police do not always follow proper procedures in gathering evidence and testimony.
If you have been accused of any theft-related offense in the five boroughs, we offer the knowledge and diligence that may be required to challenge and overcome the prosecution's case against you. For a free consultation on your situation and legal options, please contact us today.
Rigorous Investigation, Total Preparation, and Strong Defense at Trial
Possession of stolen property is not sufficient evidence to convict you of theft, burglary, or larceny. Our attorneys' thorough, detail-conscious approach to your property crime defense may include:
- Carefully reviewing all police reports in the effort to find procedural illegalities or missteps
- Examining all forms of evidence against you, including fingerprints, DNA, video surveillance footage — calling on expert witnesses as necessary to show their unreliability
- Adeptly cross-examining police and eye witnesses in order to expose potential issues such as mistaken identity
In August 2008, a New York jury returned a not guilty verdict for our client in a burglary case — despite the introduction of video evidence and an alleged confession. This is one of many Goldberg & Allen, LLP, case successes.
