Our Testimonials

Effective Legal Counsel Clients Trust

At Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP, your satisfaction is our priority! See for yourself what our clients have to say about working with us.

    "In addition to answering all my questions, I felt as though he understood my concerns and was ready to fight for me."
    I hired the law firm while searching for an attorney who specialized in DWI cases. I had a pending case with the Bronx Probation Department and felt hopeless. I called the office and within an hour received a response from Andrew Proto. I explained my situation in great detail and for the first time since my arrest, someone was on my side! In addition to answering all my questions, I felt as though he understood my concerns and was ready to fight for me. I can't tell you enough how refreshing it was to have someone in your corner, especially since my previous attorney wouldn't give me the time of day. The firm was very professional and extremely knowledgeable of DWI law. Mr. Proto went as far as contacting the Counsel's office for the Bronx Probation Dept. to make his presence known. He wanted to make sure I wasn't being taken advantage of and pleaded my case. Whenever I called the firm they responded immediately, even if I reached out multiple times a day. I tend to over analyze details and Mr. Proto was very polite and understanding in dealing with me. He reassured and kept me informed throughout my horrible ordeal. I felt at peace knowing Mr. Proto was handling my case; I had not felt peaceful in a long time. To this day, although the case is settled, my lawyer continues to reach out to the Bronx Probation Dept. showing he is ready to fight on my behalf. I highly recommend these guys, they get the job done.

    "The result was everything I wanted no criminal convictions and most of the charges were just dismissed."
    I am not happy about my DWI, but the firm was perfect in helping me get through the case. They explained everything to me and took the time to answer my questions. The result was everything I wanted no criminal convictions and most of the charges were just dismissed. What I liked the best was a few weeks after my case was over they took my call and answered the other questions I had. They are really nice guys and a great attorneys. If you have a problem just call. You will not be disappointed.
    - Former Client
    "Their staff was always in contact to provide me with an update at all times."
    Both, David Sachs and Andrew Proto demonstrated strong character, punctuality, support and constantly searching for all options to win my both cases, and they made it possible.
    - Adela L.
    "Definitely the cream of the crop!"
    Mr. Proto is compassionate, professional, and knowledgeable. I was extremely satisfied with the outcome. He delivered what he promised to do. I highly recommend Mr. Proto and his staff.

    "David gave me the feeling that I was going to be well protected in my trumped up, ridiculously racist criminal charges against me."
    After talking to a couple of other area lawyers, this firm seemed more aggressive. I met with David Sachs at my first meeting and he gave me the feeling that I was going to be well protected in my trumped up, ridiculously racist criminal charges against me. Money well spent. David was fantastic. He was able to have my case dismissed by filing legal papers with a court appearance with testimony (not a trial). Judge agreed with his legal opinion and dismissed my case. I can't thank him enough. Also, on one court date lawyer Andrew Proto from the firm appeared on my case which was fine, because I did hire the firm, but what was exceptional about it was that he knew my case just as well as David. In my view, this firm is top notch.
    - Darius L.
    "David's professionalism put me at ease and I felt confident in his ability to represent me during my court appearance."
    David was very knowledgeable yet also pragmatic and focused when discussing the outcomes surrounding my case. He was able to reach the best deal for me, getting my 6 point traffic ticket dropped to NO points and will NOT be reported to the DMV. He's affordable, and it was immediately obvious to me that he is not concerned about price gouging. David's professionalism put me at ease and I felt confident in his ability to represent me during my court appearance. Everything about the process felt organized and well-managed, and I have no reservations recommending his services.

    "Outstanding lawyers. You have got to talk to them!"
    The firm helped me out in Yonkers, NY with a drug arrest. I thought all was lost and my wife was really annoyed with me. My lawyers kept everything under control and really put my mind at ease. They explained everything and even answered my frantic questions on a Saturday!! They are the type of guys that makes you feel good and knows what they are talking about. Its like everyone knew my lawyer in court and my lawyer was always prepared much more prepared than the DA. They worked everything out for me and all I had to do was stay out of trouble for a few months and the case was dismissed. Just like that dismissed. I wrote this review because I called the firm months and months later and even though I wasn't calling to hire the firm for anything they took the time to talk to me on the phone like a friend. If you don't know what lawyer to call you need to talk to Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP!! They are great!

    "Each lawyer in the firm is very professional. We had complete confidence in them when we retained them for our son's felony drug case."
    David Sachs and the lawyers at Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP are the best criminal lawyers in Westchester County. Each lawyer in the firm is very professional. We had complete confidence in them when we retained them for our son's felony drug case. Originally we had a different lawyer handling the matter but we felt that the case was headed in the wrong direction as the former lawyer recommended that our son plead guilty to a felony. After we hired them they immediately developed a clearly laid out a strategy and approach to the case and they made us feel at ease. We finally had great lawyers fighting on our son's behalf. Ultimately, our son did not have to plead guilty to a felony or even a crime! Mr. Sachs was able to obtain an ACD dismissal and now our son will not have a criminal record and his plans to become a CPA will not be derailed!!! Thank you soooooo very much Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP!
