"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.

"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.

"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.

"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.

"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.- Former Client
