New York City Criminal Defense Lawyer
Fighting for Accused New Yorkers’ Rights and Futures
In 1996, we brought together decades of experience in the New York City criminal justice system to found Goldberg & Allen, LLP. At that time, each of us — attorneys Jay K. Goldberg and Gerald Allen — had reached the level of First Deputy Bureau Chief in Kings County.
Many attorneys who reach this level as prosecutors continue on that path. We brought our skills “back to the streets,” determined to level the playing field for people in need of strong criminal defense and civil representation. Our midtown Manhattan law firm is here for you when you have been arrested, come under investigation or been harmed by police misconduct. Call 212-766-3366 to arrange your free consultation.
Extensive Knowledge of the Law, Your Rights and Prosecution Tactics
We left our marks on the Brooklyn D.A.’s office, passing knowledge of indictments, search warrants, plea bargaining and trial work on to hundreds of prosecutors — including some who have since become elected officials. This perspective is an invaluable asset for our clients today.
Our experience — including many high-stakes victories for our clients — extends across a wide range of misdemeanor and felony cases. We have also proven our skills in high-profile, high-stakes civil lawsuits against the city for false arrest and police brutality.
Do You Need Proven, Aggressive New York DWI Defense?
Recent changes in New York DWI laws make costly ignition interlock devices mandatory for all drunk driving convictions — and some other penalties are far more severe as well. It is more important than ever to have a formidable DWI defense lawyer on your side — not a lawyer who will simply enter your guilty plea, collect a fee and move on.
Those who choose an attorney based on price often pay an especially high cost in legal consequences. We are dedicated New York City criminal defense attorneys known for providing formidable DUI/DWI representation, aggressively challenging illegal searches in drug cases, and building strong defense cases in matters ranging from violent crimes to “white collar” offenses such as fraud or embezzlement.
