Strong, supportive legal advocate
I can't thank my attorney David R. Sachs enough for the incredible support he provided throughout my entire child support case. From our very first phone call, he gave me a sense of trust and confidence that never wavered. He walked me through every step of the process, explained everything clearly, and was always available when I had questions or concerns. During my hearing, he had my back every second. His preparation, professionalism, and dedication were evident, and I truly felt like he was fighting for me and my child’s best interest. I never felt alone in the process and that made all the difference. If you're looking for an attorney who will stand by you, guide you with honesty, and go above and beyond in representing you, this is the one you want. I highly recommend David R. Sachs to anyone who needs a strong, supportive, and reliable legal advocate.
MsSoto
Relieved by Protos Law Firm
I just want to say, from the time I received my speeding ticket (89 in a 55 mph zone), I was worried about losing my driver's license. Although it was my first ticket of any kind in over 30-plus years of driving, I was extremely afraid of losing my CDL license. I reached out to Andrew Proto's Law Firm, and immediately I felt relieved! From the first phone conversation with his team, they quickly reassured me that everything would be alright. And I must say they were correct. I had to do absolutely nothing; Andrew and his team took care of everything from start to finish. They were able to get my situation resolved in a timely fashion without any points being assessed to my CDL driver's license. Much respect to how they were able to resolve the situation, which could have been catastrophic in my situation. Thank you! Keep up the great work!

Keith Takes Your Case Personally
Several years ago, I needed the services of an experienced attorney to handle a post-matrimonial matter. I performed my due diligence and after much research, my selection was clear, Keith M. Brown, Esq. I knew that I made the right choice when we had our initial meeting. It was quickly evident that Keith is a smart, hard-working, and very competent attorney, but he is also a real, compassionate and good human being with common sense. Keith took my case personally and dedicated the time to really listen and understand all of the facts. Throughout my three-year ordeal, Keith stayed committed and approached the entirety of this matter with the same focus and energy. Working together on my case for several years, I found Keith to be well-prepared, focused, professional, and ethical. He knows the law, he knows how to efficiently navigate the legal system, and he plays to win. With Keith’s collaborative approach, my opinion mattered and we worked together on strategy that made sense. I genuinely felt understood and well-represented to have the greatest probability of success. You cannot go wrong having Keith in your corner. I recommend Keith M. Brown, Esq. for your matrimonial and post-matrimonial legal needs.
Spiro Sinanis
Don't hesitate to call him.
Seamless correspondence, extraordinarily attentive, and a wide range of knowledge is what sets Andrew Proto apart from others. He has helped us more than once, and both times took us through the steps of what happens in all circumstances. Time, thorough explanation, and sense of calm is exactly what we needed when we required an attorney. Everything handled in a timely manner, and we are so thankful. Don't hesitate to call him. Thank you, Andrew, once again.
Randi Matalon
Excellent matrimonial lawyer
Keith Brown is an excellent, sharp, skilled, fair-minded, hard-working, and savvy matrimonial lawyer.

I highly recommend PROTO
Good afternoon everyone, I want to share my experience with the PROTO lawyers, which was the best option I could have made. The lawyer Andrew was very kind and attentive to my needs, he answered all my questions and his office team always with great kindness and respect. If at any time you need a lawyer to represent you, I recommend PROTO. It was a pleasure for me in every aspect and if in the future I need a service for my representation they will definitely be themselves. And don't be shy with the language with them. There is someone who speaks Spanish and is very kind indeed. I give them 5 stars for their service👍🤝👌☘️

I'm very happy with the results and highly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal help!

Couldn't Be Happier With My Case
Only great things to say about Keith Brown. From start to finish, he was attentive and responded to each phone call or email, usually within the hour. Honestly, I really couldn’t be happier with how well my case was handled. From the receptionist to Mr. Brown, they took a situation that seemed like a lost cause and figured it out. Answered every question that I could think of and most importantly to me, he gave me a timeline and stood by it. All in all, I couldn’t have hoped for things to have been handled any better.
Keith DeFino
David Sachs' Dedication and Expertise

If you're seeking a lawyer who will advocate for you and deliver OUTSTANDING results, David Sachs is without a doubt the one you need!
Kurt Calden
Truly Grateful for Andrew's Help
My family and I can’t thank or recommend Andrew Proto enough! I just wish we found him sooner. He is a genuine and caring person who helped us navigate a difficult time. He clearly explained the process and details along the way. And he was always reachable which was amazing. We are truly grateful for all the time & work he put in. THANK YOU, Andrew!

Jonathan Furtado
Andrew Proto: A Miracle Worker
If you are in need of a lawyer who will fight for real justice, who is familiar with the courts and their players in the Westchester area, hire Andrew Proto. Not only did he get my case dismissed quickly and efficiently but after speaking with the DA the charges were withdrawn by the prosecution themselves, admitting that they never should have been brought in the first place. Andrew Proto is a miracle worker, who will get you the justice you deserve. I couldn’t possibly more highly recommend.
Eric Meyerson
Quickest Divorce I've Heard Of
Keith represented me in my divorce and was excellent. He took the time to listen to what I want, made various recommendations accompanied by possible ramifications of each option. Getting a divorce in NY can be quite the nightmare, but Keith made it easy to get through, which says quite a lot. It was the quickest divorce I have ever heard of, and that was my top priority. I am so grateful I made the decision to go with Keith. Given the number of divorce attorneys here in Westchester/NYC, choosing the right one is critical to one’s sanity and ease through all the pain a divorce naturally creates. I’m very happy I chose Keith.

If you are arrested, you have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. It is important to clearly state your desire for legal counsel and to refrain from answering questions without an attorney present. These rights are designed to protect you during legal proceedings.
When should I contact a defense attorney?
Contact a defense attorney as soon as you are aware of an investigation or charges against you. The earlier an attorney is involved, the better they can prepare your defense. Early involvement also helps protect your rights during investigations and hearings.
How are your fees structured?
Our fees are based on the complexity of the case and the anticipated time commitment. We offer transparent pricing and will discuss all fees during the initial consultation. Payment plans may be available depending on your situation. Our priority is to provide affordable and effective defense services.
What happens during a criminal trial?
During a criminal trial, both the prosecution and the defense present evidence and arguments. It involves jury selection, opening statements, witness testimonies, cross-examinations, closing arguments, and jury deliberation. The verdict is delivered based on the evidence presented. Our team will guide you through every step of the process.
