Top best C Lawyers in New York | 17107 available

I am a founding partner of Sethi & Mazaheri, LLC. My firm represents individuals in immigration and criminal proceedings in New York, New Jersey and the Washington DC, Metro Area.  Most recently, I was an Assistant Prosecutor at the Union County Prosecutor's Office, where I served in the domestic violence, juvenile and appellate units. Prior to working as a prosecutor, I served as a Law Clerk in the Criminal Division of the Bergen County Superior Court under the Honorable Patrick J. Roma, J.S.C.  My interest in and commitment to public service are rooted in my work experience at the United Nations Children’s Fund in Moscow, Russia, as well as at the Public Interest Law Institute in Budapest, Hungary, where I served as a research fellow.

I am a dedicated real estate attorney with a passion for commercial leasing. My experience includes representing a Fortune 500 company and other national retailers. Due to my business background, I provide a pragmatic approach to my clients’ needs and produce efficient, effective, and economical results.. I know that budgeting is crucial to the success of any business, and that hourly fees can be unpredictable. I am therefore proud to offer reasonable flat-rate pricing and complementary consultations.

I am a criminal defense lawyer by trade, having honed my skills as an assistant district attorney in the nation's third largest county at the beginning of my career. Currently, I represent clients in both federal and state courts in New York, on serious criminal matters.. If you have been arrested for any criminal offense, such as a DWI, guns, drug charges, assault, terrorism charges, or sex crimes, contact an attorney who is skilled and experienced in complex cases. If you are currently being investigated by the government on any criminal matter, call us at once.. I also can help if you have been issued a DAT (desk appearance ticket), which is considered an arrest, and still presents potentially serious repercussions if you are convicted. For a serious offense, you need a serious attorney who will listen to you and be available when you need them.. My philiosophy is simple: I do not believe in telling a client what he or she wants to hear merely to get them to hire me, but rather, I tell them what they need to know. Often times, those two are not aligned with one another, but in the end you need to hear straight talk from your lawyer. Any attorney can sell you a bill of goods over the phone just to get you to hire them. I do not handle my practice in that manner. I handle every case as if it was my own case, or that of someone very close to me.. I put the necessary time in each case to ensure I know that case better than the prosecutor knows the case. I will conduct my own investigation by speaking with witnesses, going to the crime scene, and pulling the case law that will be helpful in your case. This is critical to a good outcome in your case.. Most cases are resolved without a jury trial, while others have no other option but to go to trial. Whatever the issue may be with your case, I will advise you as to which path is the best course of action for you.. While many attorneys may boast that all they do is go to trial on each and every case, the truth is that going to trial on every case would be malpractice, in essence. Not every case needs to go to trial, or would benefit the client from going to trial. In many cases I am able to get the charges dismissed, and my client has his/her life restored. Some cases are best worked out with a reduction in charges to a lesser offense, and some cases are worked out in a plea bargain. Those that don't fit those situations are typically set for trial.. I have tried more than 75 serious criminal cases to a jury, with a very good track record in trial.. As the managing partner of Greco Neyland, PC, I oversee the east coast office, representing clients in all 5 boroughts of New York, as well as Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties.. I am a father of 2 children, so I know how parents think when they come to my office to seek counsel for their child who may find themselves in the crosshairs of the prosecuting branch of law enforcement.. I believe no person should be denied quality representation merely because they cannot afford a better lawyer. Whatever amount of money you spend on a lawyer is "good, hard earned money.". Every case is different from the next one, and therefore no two fees are alike. We have reasonable rates and we accept all major credit cards, in addition to Venmo, Zelle, and CashApp. Additionally, we offer flexible payment plans to clients in order to help our clients get the legal representation they need, and still be able to meet their monthly financial obligations.. Call us today so we can get started on your case. Do not wait until it is too late.

They need an advisor, a sounding board, and a sympathetic ear. By carefully choosing the cases we handle, we can fulfill those roles for our clients. Further, by meticulously chronicling our clients’ physical, emotional, and pecuniary losses, we are able to demonstrate to defense attorneys, insurance adjustors, and juries that our clients are not trying to beat the system.

Edward Marcowitz grew up on Staten Island in a blue-collar family with a work ethic that still guides his life today.. His father, Steve, owned a dry cleaning operation where Edward began working at the age of 8. From then until the time he got his law degree 16 years later, Edward continued to work long hours pressing shirts while pursuing his educational goals.. He received a B.S. degree from St. John’s University in 1988 and then, at his father’s urging, enrolled at Touro College’s Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center — while continuing to press shirts full-time. Many nights, his work and his studies limited him to three hours of sleep.. But in the end, Edward considers the hard work to have paid off. After he received his J.D. in 1991, he launched what has become a highly successful and enjoyable career as a plaintiff’s lawyer.. “I get up every morning and thank God that I’m in this profession because my option was the back of a dry cleaning store and, quite honestly, it would have been a waste of my talents,” he says. “Every day, I get to put on a suit and tie and I get to serve people and help people.”. Immediately after law school, Edward joined a busy personal injury firm in New York as an associate attorney. He rapidly gained trial experience there and later moved on to another large plaintiff’s firm where he got his introduction to litigation stemming from the September 11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. He spearheaded a pro bono project to assist the widows of those who were murdered in the tower, recovering $280 million for them without any lawyer fees being charged.. “That’s where I developed a real sense of service to the 9/11 community,” he says.. He stayed at that firm for 2 ½ years and began handling catastrophic injury cases in addition to the 9/11 cases and achieved multiple large recoveries — several topping seven figures — for his clients.. At that point, Edward felt he was ready to launch his own practice and did so in 2012. His focus now is on limiting his practice to significant catastrophic injury cases. By narrowing his work to the bigger cases, Edward is able to provide each of his clients the fullest attention their cases deserve.. “I’m dedicated to clients and I’m dedicated to my profession,” he says. “I never lose sight of how lucky I am to do what I do and, more importantly, I never lose sight of the responsibility I have to my clients.”. Edward considers his negotiating skills to be his greatest strength as a lawyer. But he also has the skills to try cases in court when needed.. “There’s no secret about what’s required to litigate a case,” he says. “It’s thorough preparation. It’s preparing a case as though it’s going to go to verdict. And when you prepare a case as though it’s going to verdict, a funny thing happens: the defendants know that you’re serious and they know that if they go to trial it’s going to hurt, and they’re willing to negotiate.”. Edward’s talent and dedication have won him numerous forms of professional recognition. He has been named as a SuperLawyer by SuperLawyer magazine for eight consecutive years. He has also been named to the Nation’s Top 100 High Stakes Litigators and he is a member of the National Association of Distinguished Counsel.. In his limited spare time, Edward enjoys horse riding and caring for the horses that he and his wife board in Upstate New York.. The Marcowitz Law Firm in New York concentrates on representing those injured by toxic exposures in the aftermath of the September 11th Terrorist Attacks. Edward L.C. Marcowitz is extremely proud and honored to serve as the personal attorney to the family of NYPD Detective James Zadroga after whom the relevant piece of Federal Legislation was named.. Eddie’s experience in representing those affected by the WTC attacks is incredibly unique and virtually unparalleled. He spearheaded one of the largest Pro Bono efforts in history on behalf of New York City Firefighters and their families. While working at one of New York’s most respected personal injury firms, Ed worked extensively with Special Master Ken Feinberg in the original September 11 Victims Compensation Fund of 2001. Ed ultimately assisted in the recovery of just under $300,000, for the family members’ of Victims.. Special Master Ken Feinberg has stated that “he knew of few lawyers I worked with in my administration of the VCF that are more capable or qualified than Ed.” After the original Victim Compensation Fund had closed, Ed also represented a select few clients in the Federal World Trade Center litigation where, after appealing an award he believed was unsatisfactory, he was successful in obtaining just under $1,900,000 for the widow and family of a New York City Sanitation worker who passed away due to his September 11th related illnesses. It was one of the highest awards issued in that litigation.. During this time, Ed was also involved in a number of Pro Bono efforts on behalf of those involved in rescue efforts. Ed successfully advocated to overturn several FDNY Pension Board decisions that denied disability pensions to members of New York’s Bravest who had suffered debilitating lung injuries as a result of their heroic efforts at Ground Zero. These accomplishments were unprecedented and were consequently chronicled in the New York Daily News, The New York Law Journal and The Chief-Leader.. Whilst involved in all of the above, Ed was involved in lobbying The United States Congress to re-open the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund. More and more people were being diagnosed with cancers and other respiratory conditions related to their exposure in the Ground Zero vicinity. Upon the passage and reauthorization of the James Zadroga Health & Compensation Act, Ed had the distinct privilege of giving the opening remarks as a featured speaker at a Feelgood Foundation symposium at Queens College which sought to educate the public about the newly opened fund.. Ed is also proud to have served as an “expert witness” with respect to the September 11th Victim’s Compensation Fund on behalf of a Chicago Family whose original WTC award was wholly inadequate. In the end, the case settled for an amount which would have equaled one of the highest awards issued by the original Fund. Ed donated his entire $10, expert fee to both the Uniformed Firefighter Association and Uniformed Fire Officers Association of Greater New York. ($5,000 to the UFA Widows and Children’s Fund and the UFOA Bravest Fund).. Ed has been working with first responders, firefighters, police officers and union workers since the inception of the Fund, months after the terrorist attacks. We now look forward to working with people who were residents of the area or spent a significant amount of time there between 9/11/2001 and 5/30/2002, whether it be through the course of employment, residency or simply for visits. Anyone who was in the area during this time frame could be entitled to, not only health coverage, but significant monetary compensation as well.

Ed Slaughter is Partner-in-Charge of the Dallas office of Hawkins Parnell Thackston & Young LLP.. He has been a trial lawyer for more than twenty years. Ed has represented corporations and individuals in high risk litigation including business litigation, product liability, toxic exposure cases and employer practices liability claims. He has represented defendants as national trial counsel and national coordinating counsel including employers, school systems, design engineering and construction firms and manufacturers of dozens of different products. Ed has served as lead counsel in trials across the country, including the landmark mesothelioma defense victory in O'Neil v. Crane et al., which established product manufacturers could not be held liable for injuries caused by replacement parts or materials used in association with their products.. In 2014, Ed won a complete defense verdict for the sole trial defendant in Felton v. Maremont Corp, a mesothelioma trial that received national attention. Plaintiffs offered evidence that plaintiff ground defendant's brake re-linings without any respiratory protection for years. The jury found the defendant's asbestos containing brake linings were not defectively designed and that the company had no duty to warn. Instead, the employers who were not parties to the case were at fault for violating California law by failing to provide respiratory protection and ventilation.. As national coordinating counsel, Ed manages expert development and national trial preparation. Ed has successfully managed dockets of mass tort cases, obtaining thousands of dismissals without payment in the earliest stages of litigation. Ed has also been actively involved in reshaping the Texas litigation landscape through tort reform. He assisted in drafting legislative proposals and testified before the Texas House Civil Practices Committee to close the loophole that allowed thousands of out-of-state claims to be filed in Texas.. Ed is also a frequent author and invited speaker of various topics, including alternative fee arrangements and developing efficient models for legal project management and cost control in litigation.
