Client Testimonials

"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.

"Best Criminal Defense Lawyers in Westchester"

David Sachs and the lawyers at Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP are the best criminal lawyers in Westchester County. Each lawyer in the firm is very professional. We had complete confidence in them when we retained them for our son's felony drug case. Originally we had a different lawyer handling the matter but we felt that the case was headed in the wrong direction as the former lawyer recommended that our son plead guilty to a felony. After we hired them they immediately developed a clearly laid out a strategy and approach to the case and they made us feel at ease. We finally had great lawyers fighting on our son's behalf. Ultimately, our son did not have to plead guilty to a felony or even a crime! Mr. Sachs was able to obtain an ACD dismissal and now our son will not have a criminal record and his plans to become a CPA will not be derailed!!! Thank you soooooo very much Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP! - Laura and Todd D.

"The Judges and Even the Prosecutors Know and Liked Andrew"

About a year ago I met with Andrew Proto and hired his firm, Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP to handle my criminal case. Andrew was able to work out a deal with the prosecutor to have my criminal charges dismissed and my court record sealed. It was also obvious to me that the judges and even the prosecutors know and liked Andrew which I believe made him lawyer much more effective and successful in my case. I really appreciate his service and the firm. - Ricky C.

"Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP is Above and Beyond Great "

Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP handled my DWI case and my criminal trespass case. My attorney had to appear in 2 different courthouses, deal with multiple charges and whenever I had questions or concerns he was always available and put my mind at ease. He responded to my emails quickly. He is above and beyond a great lawyer and was able to get the best result for me. I would recommend this firm to anyone for their criminal case. - John

"As Far As Lawyers Go, Mr. Sachs is an 11 out of 10"

WOW, can't say enough about David Sachs, professional, aggressive, knowledgeable and never left me in the dark about my felony DWI case. When I hired Mr. Sachs and his firm I already had a felony DWI conviction and I was sentenced to five years' probation. I came to the firm with my second felony DWI charge and probation violation. Mr. Sachs was able to get me restored back to probation with no jail time. Then I picked up my third felony DWI charge and I thought it was all over for me. However, Mr. Sachs never lets up! I doubted his belief that I could get back on probation and stay out of state prison. But in the end, he delivered! Mr. Sachs gave a very passionate sentencing argument to the judge. I was very moved myself. Because of the Mr. Sachs' loyalty to me and his profession, the impossible was made possible! As far as lawyers go, Mr. Sachs is an "11 out of 10". God Bless. - Carl S.

"My Attorney Was Very Professional, Knowledgeable & Confident"

Before speaking to Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP I felt that my legal situation was going out of control. I was scared and felt not only helpless but hopeless. After speaking with the firm I felt confident that things will turn around and get better and in fact, they did. My attorney was very professional, knowledgeable and confident. I would recommend them to anyone who is arrested. - Marcella J.

"I Felt at Peace Knowing Mr. Proto Was Handling My Case"

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. - Anonymous
