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.

    "Outstanding lawyers. I have worked with them twice and they know what they are doing."
    I have worked with Keith Brown and he always took the time to answer my questions. He always had a plan for me and explained everything clearly.
    - Jason B.
    "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
    "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
    "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
    "Thank you for saving my driving record."
    Thank you for your excellent representation with respect to my ticket. I didn't have to go to court, you took care of everything and my record is clear. Thank you for saving my driving record.
    - Former Client
    "David Sachs is a fantastic lawyer and overall good guy"
    When I first spoke to David Sachs I instantly felt confident in his abilities and personal character. Great result in my criminal case. I highly recommend him if you are arrested. He is a fantastic lawyer and an overall good guy!
    - J.B.
    "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!
    - 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.
