New York City Criminal Lawyers

“Where Everyone is Equal Before the Law”

The criminal justice system can be intimidating, impersonal and unforgiving. Victims of poverty, neglect and the social dysfunctions of our inner cities often find themselves lost in this system without guidance or assistance. At Travieso Law, we understand what many in our community experience when they have been charged with a criminal offense. Our criminal defense lawyers understand “the system” from the perspective of the streets and from inside the courtroom. Providing disenfranchised communities with a voice to demand justice, we aggressively defend the rights of the accused in order to ensure everyone is treated equally before the law.

Defending the Rights of the Accused

Regardless of guilt or innocence, persons suspected or accused of a crime are guaranteed rights under the Constitution. At Travieso Law, our criminal defense lawyers thoroughly review police procedures to identify any violations of our client’s rights. Whether it involves a pat-down on the subway, search of your car, or surveillance of your apartment, any evidence or testimony collected in violation of your Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights may be inadmissible in a court of law.

Don’t face the system alone – contact criminal defense attorneys at Travieso Law. Representing clients in the Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and New Jersey, we’re prepared to meet with clients in lock-up at Rikers or in a precinct holdover.

Standing By Our Clients

Our office is all too familiar with how innocent people can allegedly “fit the description of the perp,” or be intimidated into making a confession. Criminal procedure is a complex, confusing area, you need an experienced criminal law attorney at your side in all your dealings with authorities; remember their job is to convict you – our job, at Travieso Law, is to protect your rights, from the arrest and at any point thereafter.

Giving People a Second Chance

When the evidence is overwhelming or a client admits guilt, our attorneys work with the DA’s office on plea agreements that reduce the charges against our clients. Recognizing that not everyone has the same chances in life, Travieso Law explores alternatives to best serve our clients and prevent excessively long jail terms.

Sometimes people need a second chance in life – at Travieso Law, we’re committed to doing everything we can to help our clients get that second chance. For more information regarding our state and federal criminal defense practice, contact New York City criminal lawyers at Travieso Law today.
