If you find yourself facing criminal charges whether it is a Misdemeanor or a Felony, in State or Federal Court the attorney you retain can and will impact the overall outcome of your case. As a former Assistant District Attorney, I know the system and bring a unique point of view to your defense. I have successfully handled numerous criminal cases as both a prosecutor and defense attorney and can offer a wealth of knowledge and resources that can bring results in the most complex of cases.
In all criminal cases, the evidence against you must be thoroughly examined and all aspects of the law enforcement’s conduct evaluated to ensure that the strict rules of the penal code have
been adhered.
I will personally work on you case to ensure that there was no deviation to these rules, and if there was, I will use this knowledge toward getting your charges reduced or in certain cases dismissed. Each case is carefully reviewed and prepared regardless of the severity of the charges.
I work with a quality legal team and I personally bring over 10 years of experience to your case. Our firm takes pride in your representation and will provide you with a straight forward approach to your legal defense. I will give you clear explanations to your legal questions and
opinions that are honest and thoughtful.
I have experience with cases involving sale and drug possession, DWI/DUI, gun possession, assault, robbery, burglary, grand larceny, aggravated unlicensed operation, resisting arrest, obstruction of governmental administration, harassment, domestic violence – to name a few areas.
From arrest to arraignment, arraignment to grand jury, grand jury to trial I will be by your side and you can expect thoughtful, informed aggressive representation.

I had two other attorneys before I hired Ms Lescott. Ms Lescott was the first and only attorney that answered all my questions, returned my calls and was never condescending. She is knowledgeable of the process, in court she argued my case and got me the result that I wanted!
"Nadia and I formerly worked together at the Bronx DA's Office, where she was well known as a bright, tough lawyer."
"Nadia is a superb attorney in both criminal and civil litigation matters. Her attention to details and strong negotiation skills give her a powerful advantage in any courtroom or litigation matter. She's well respected and professional yet appropriately aggressive enough to ensure the best possible disposition for her clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Lescott is a formidable advocate in her litigation practice who is well respected within the legal community, and well regarded by her colleagues."
"Nadia is a very experienced and knowledgeable attorney. Her strength is in the courtroom and she is a true fighter for her clients. Criminal law is a tough area, but this woman knows how to litigate and win."
"I endorse this lawyer. She is knowledgeable, reliable and very thorough in her practice areas. As a fellow attorney, I believe that she has the necessary background and skills to provide excellent representation."
