Violent Crimes

Have you been arrested? Let us help.

New York Criminal Defense Lawyers

Violent crimes such as attempted murder and armed robbery resonate with the public in New York. Fear of these crimes may lead many people to believe that anyone charged with a violent crime must be guilty. At Travieso Law, we recognize that being charged with a violent crime, being guilty of a violent crime, and being convicted of a violent crime are all completely separate matters.

All of our lawyers are committed to providing insightful legal advice and aggressive legal representation from arraignment through trial. Our firm has the experience to represent clients charged with violent crimes in state, federal, and juvenile proceedings.

• Assault and Battery
• Sex Crimes or Sexual Assault

Fighting the Charges Against You

It is important to have a skilled attorney from the moment you are arrested or know you are under investigation. Arraignments must happen within twenty-four hours. This is where bail is set and can determine whether you fight the charges against you from jail or from your home. A pretrial hearing often determines what evidence can be used against you at trial. To wait until just before a trial to hire a lawyer will put you at a disadvantage.

We fight for our clients at every turn. However, when evidence of an assault, a violent drug crime, or a manslaughter charge is overwhelming, we work with the prosecution to reach a plea bargain or alternative sentencing agreement that may minimize the impact a crime will have on our client's life and future.
