    "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
    "Fantastic law firm from top to bottom."
    David and Keith were fantastic throughout my case. Their knowledge , thoroughness and compassion was outstanding. Going through a divorce with small children was the worst time in my life but I was able to get through it with their help. Keith was always fully prepared for court and always had me fully prepared no matter my emotional state. He was hard and focused when he needed to be and always listened to every detail big or small. I wouldn't be where I am today with 2 happy kids if it wasn't for all of the help and hard work from David and Keith.
    - Matthew B
    "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.
    "I was lucky to have such an open and compassionate lawyer."
    The firm was a big help in my DWI case in White Plains. We appeared in Court together and they always took time to explain my case and all of my options. My lawyer even gave me his e-mail address and responded to my questions on weekends. I was lucky to have such an open and compassionate lawyer. I didn't know my lawyer from anyone when I found him on the internet but now I feel comfortable calling him anytime. He also helped me with my child custody issues that keep coming up. I would recommend you call him with any questions.
    - Former Client

    Andrew Proto is the best!! He helped me on my DWI case in Harrison New York so much. All the other lawyers I spoke to were doom and gloom. Andrew told me everything I needed to know about my case and was very aggressive against the DA. I was so comfortable in court with him. The best part was anytime I needed to speak with him he was available and always offered to answer my questions even on weekends. Thanks to him and his office for the help!!!
