Siesel, with offices conveniently located in the Bronx, White Plains, and a satellite office in Peekskill, New York, has represented the victims of all types of personal injury and wrongful death cases in the federal and state courts of New York for the last 28 years. As our founder, Mr. Siesel is personally involved with each case, from inception of the action through trial. Our offices represent those injured in car crashes, motorcycle, bus and truck accidents, construction accidents, on the job accidents, slip and fall accidents, elevator and escalator accidents, as well as the victims of medical malpractice, nursing home neglect, and those who suffer injuries due to defective products and dangerous medications. Our office zealously and aggressively represents our clients and has obtained numerous successful settlements and verdicts since 1986 worth several million dollars for our clients.. We pride ourselves on personal dedication to our each client. Clients are kept promptly abreast of all developments in their cases on a regular basis and all phone calls, emails, faxes or other communications are responded to immediately, and always by the end of the business day if we are in Court.. Our office also represents clients in cases in which they have suffered serious injuries as a result of dog and animal bites, burns, or suffered injuries at the hands of an uninsured or underinsured driver.. We demand that the insurance companies and their defense counsel provide the maximum possible compensation for our clients’ past and future pain and suffering, lost earnings, past and future, medical and hospital expenses, and loss of enjoyment of life. We will litigate through trial any meritorious case which the insurance companies refuse to resolve fairly and justly. Our philosophy, particularly in cases in the northern Hudson Valley, where jurors and judges are sometimes not favorable, is to prepare each case with an eye toward litigation, but recognizing that sometimes pre-suit settlement by way of arbitration, mediation or direct negotiations with the insurance companies involved is the preferable course of resolution of the case.. Due to our wealth of litigation experience since 1986, as well as our background working for law firms who defended personal injury cases in the 1980’s, we have the distinct advantage of knowing the philosophy of insurance carriers from the inside, and have an edge in knowing how they think and operate. This experience is essential and invaluable in preparing our clients for the rigors of litigation, such as appearances at municipal hearings, depositions, and trials where the client must be able to withstand the difficulties of cross examination by defense attorneys whose goal is to limit compensation and defeat the plaintiff’s claims.. In addition to our extensive practice representing the victims of accidents, defective products, and medical malpractice, our office also handles a wide variety of criminal matters, including DWI’s, aggravated unlicensed operation, impaired driving charges, assaults, document fraud, drug possession, administrative hearings, refusals to take chemical tests and traffic infractions.

Among the factual circumstances that Mr. McMillan has encountered in his years of representing the accused include those charged at "checkpoints", those charged who are drinking (but not operating) in a parked vehicle and those whom the police mistakenly have believed exhibited the classic characteristics of intoxication (i.e., slurred speech, watery eyes and a disheveled appearance) because they were either ill, infirm, or because they had ingested legal, prescription or over-the-counter medication, such as cough medicine. DWI is a serious crime with serious and dramatic long-term ramifications if not handled properly.

Stephanie Lynn Ramos, Esq. isn’t your typical attorney. Stephanie’s maternal grandfather passed through Ellis Island in the 1920s and her father came to the United States from Puerto Rico in the late 1970’s. Born in Newark, NJ. Stephanie was raised in many impoverished, immigrant-rich, urban neighborhoods on the east coast of the U.S. As a child, she grew up in a family of 12 kids that was extremely poor. Her family was evicted from several homes, causing her family to move frequently. Her turbulent upbringing made getting her education a unique and difficult journey.. Because of various family challenges, Stephanie was forced to leave her family, then living in Baltimore, MD, at fourteen to live with her grandmother in the diverse city of Elizabeth, NJ. She graduated from Elizabeth High School in 2000 in the top of her class. She fought to get her college education and after 8 years; a divorce; the birth of her daughter, Kenisha; juggling multiple jobs while taking classes on and off; and a strong helpings of life’s curveballs, Stephanie finally graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Connecticut in 2009 with a Bachelor’s degree in Human Services and a minor in Women’s Studies.. While in undergrad at UConn, Stephanie became involved in advocacy work for women and minorities. She organized events to raise funds and awareness for the various groups in her community that were facing discrimination, violence, and poverty in their daily lives. Her unique struggles as a child instilled in her an empathy for people that were struggling just to get by. It was in during this time that a beloved mentor, Ingrid Semaan, Ph.D. told her that she would be an amazing lawyer and that the law would be a place that she could have a hugely positive impact.. Although Stephanie wasn’t completely sold on going to law school, she continued to explore the idea while working at the Domestic Violence Crisis Center (DVCC) in Stamford, CT after graduation.

While working at DVCC and raising her toddler, she applied and was accepted to Pace Law School in White Plains, NY. Her daughter was just 2 years old when she started at Pace in the Fall of 2011.. Stephanie met Professor Vanessa Merton, Esq. during an admitted student event. The professor gave her a tour of the Immigration Justice Clinic (IJC) at John Jay Legal services. Stephanie learned during that tour of the tremendous good that could be done through immigration legal service.

The impact of that work stayed with her throughout law school and she would go on to participate in the IJC as a 3L student.. She and her partner Miriam Lacroix, Esq. would author a paper together tracing the discrimination embedded in U.S. immigration laws and served as the first “Semester in Practice” students at Pace Law School. She had fallen in love with immigration law practice by the time she graduated law school and made a lifelong friend and business partner with Miriam. It was then that she and Miriam began to plan and dream of opening their own immigration law firm.. Stephanie graduated Magna Cum Laude from Pace Law School in 2014. After taking the bar exam, she started working at the Pace Community Law Practice as a legal fellow where she was able to hone her legal skills and start laying the foundation for Lacroix Ramos, LLP to launch in September 2015.. Stephanie now enjoys representing clients from all over the world as the immigrate to the United States in various types of family and humanitarian based visas. When not helping immigrants Stephanie loves to read, volunteer with local community organizations and spending time with her daughter and their cat, Kyo.
