Criminal defense attorneys in Bronx County, New York City, are some of the most highly trained lawyers in the country. The vast majority of criminal defense lawyers practicing in the Bronx were trained at The Legal Aid Society, The Bronx Defenders, or Bronx District Attorney's Office. The Legal Aid Society and Bronx Defenders provide defense lawyers for indigent persons charged with crimes. The Bronx District Attorney's Office is responsible for prosecuting those very same individuals. All three organizations are comprised of hundreds of individuals, including lawyers, para-legals investigators, forensic experts, social workers, counselors, and secretarial support staff. The reason why these organizations are as large as they are is simple; the Bronx represents one of the prime epicenters of criminal justice in the nation.

Unlike most other jurisdictions around the country, several hundred persons are arrested in the Bronx on a daily basis, for crimes ranging from simple trespass to murder. Attorneys practicing in the Bronx Courts must familiarize themselves with a vast array of rules, regulations, penal law sections, motion practice rules, criminal and civil procedure, Grand Jury practice, document preparation, rules of evidence, and many other areas of criminal practice. Each person arrested is entitled to legal representation.   >>>>Read more>>>>>
