When investigations target you or your employer, it is important to immediately seek experienced legal advice to ensure your rights are protected.

Both sides of the law are learning how to deal with the new and unfamiliar territory of computer crime. Prosecutors are easily misled by investigators and police officers, and defense attorneys often have little to no experience with the types of cases they take. We have extensive experience innovating defense strategies for an array of internet crimes.

Our team has the resources of time, attention and technology to give each drug crime case the focused attention that you need and deserve. Your matter will never be handed off to an inexperienced associate or paralegal, and you will always be able to contact us, no matter how minor you think your question or issue might be.

These types of crimes include people charged in a federal court, usually stemming from a federal investigation with an international focus and people who have left the United States to escape criminal penalties and are trying to return, among others.

At The Brill Legal Group, we have developed a core competency in these services, defending those accused of violent crimes aggressively. We have a long experience with criminal defense, assisting individuals accused of an array of crimes, including violent crimes. It is our goal to help you navigate the complexities of these types of cases, have charges dismissed or reduce jail time.

Breath tests are not foolproof, nor are blood-alcohol content (BAC) tests. Mistakes can be made, both by arresting officers and by law enforcement personnel at the police station. If mistakes were made, we will find them and use them to your advantage.

People convicted of certain crimes under New York law or released from custody at least a decade ago, whichever is later, may be able to benefit from a new law. Based on the new law that went into effect October 7, 2017, many of those convictions or incarcerations may be sealed. The impact of the newly-enacted legislation is to help people with a criminal past prove that they have been rehabilitated allowing them the opportunity to start over.

Excellent service. Brill Legal was a breath of fresh air and Peter is a genius! Not only is he thorough and practical, but he gets work done fast; especially when there are short turnaround times. I highly recommend Peter and Brill's staff!!
