"With me every step of the way"Keith Brown and Andy Proto are bothe very caring, knowledgeable and attentive attorneys. They were with me every step of the way through a very tough child custody case. On first meeting, Keith told me we would come out victorious and he held true to that. Their strategy was explained clearly and decisively throughout and was available at any time to answer any questions or concerns I ever had. When it came down to crunch time, they worked countless hours even outside of their regular business hours to get the results we want ed and needed. I would recommend this firm and these attorneys to anyone in need.- Kara

"He defended me successfully and I was found not guilty. I am grateful to Andrew for seeking and defending justice."Andrew defended me in a serious traffic violation of which I was not guilty. He kept me informed at all times and was knowledgeable and responsive. Notwithstanding that the judge would not accept a plea bargain for this offense as a matter of policy, Andrew requested a trial. He defended me successfully and I was found not guilty. I am grateful to Andrew for seeking and defending justice. I would recommend him highly.- Former Client

"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.

"I had spent three years working hard for 0 points on my license, so the small investment in this firm for a good defense seemed a good idea."The interaction with the firm is a 10/10 with prompt, precise and on point responses. Obviously this firm knows how to navigate the court system and in my case it was a $$$$ saver for my speeding violation, saving me points and I am sure a few digits on my- Oliver T.

"Honest and Dependable and Caring"I was in some serious trouble with child protective services. Mr. Andrew Proto of Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP was very knowledgeable about the process and was familiar with all the players. He held my hand through this horrible ordeal. Pricing was fair and they worked with me and my horrible financial situation as most of my assets were in limbo at family court. Mr. Proto won my case and now I am vindicated of those horrible and untrue charges! Proto and Sachs got to the bottom of the nonsense and gave ME AND MY SON OUR LIVES BACK! Thank you so much Mr. Andrew Proto Please.. Please.... If you have any type of litigation you BETTER call Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP!- Thomas J.

"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.- B.M.

"They are winners!"The law firm and partners handled my case like pros. You see my overall rating of these men. I'm an excitable man I guess it was better not to inform me about some things so I didn't act out at the time they wanted me to stay calm. Outstanding, you go lawyers.- Former Client

"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.- Happy Client
