At Proto, Sachs & Brown, LLP, your satisfaction is our priority! See for yourself what our clients have to say about working with us.

    "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.

    "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
    "The result was everything I wanted no criminal convictions and most of the charges were just dismissed."
    I am not happy about my DWI, but the firm was perfect in helping me get through the case. They explained everything to me and took the time to answer my questions. The result was everything I wanted no criminal convictions and most of the charges were just dismissed. What I liked the best was a few weeks after my case was over they took my call and answered the other questions I had. They are really nice guys and a great attorneys. If you have a problem just call. You will not be disappointed.
    - Former Client

    "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."
    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.
    "She’s amazing!!!"
    Fenisha Williams handled my divorce and she did a phenomenal job! She was always reachable and most importantly always returned my calls. She’s very knowledgeable and was always trying to find the most reasonable solutions…Having her represent me definitely helped me calm down my anxieties. She’s amazing!!!

    "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."
    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.
