Elizabeth R. Crotty

"Your typical divorce plaintiff wants four things: (1) the house, (2) the kids, (3) the husband's paycheck, and (4) freedom to spend time in the house with her boyfriend," said one attorney. All he or she has to do to get this is file a false complaint with the Police. The spouse or SO will be arrest...ed, locked up, arraigned and provided with an Order of Protection against himself or herself. But suppose the plaintiff is the actual criminal. Suppose he or she files a false report. If that happens to you or you just want an excellent defense lawyer, Elizabeth Crotty will get to the bottom of the story and represent you effectively and clearly with the District Attorney and in Court (if the case gets that far), She can persuade tough Asst. DA's to get the case against you dismissed outright if it is flimsy or just plain false. She does not make deals to enhance her reputation with the DA's office. If a plea bargain is the best outcome for you, she will fiercely defend you and get you a better deal than you thought you could ever get. She will represent you and not herself. The latter is a problem that is all too common especially in cases where the actual facts go against prevailing prejudices. I hired Elizabeth Crotty as my lawyer. She represented me energetically and effectively when I was about to give up and accept a poor result for myself because I was just too overwhelmed to fight well for myself. She knows what she is doing.

I retained Ms. Crotty after meeting with different criminal lawyers in New York for a DUI charge and it was the best decision I have ever made. She was not only upfront about possible outcomes but also clearly outlined the process going forward. In the end, all the charges were dismissed and I could ...not have asked for a better outcome. I met with various lawyers and looking back on it now, Ms. Crotty was the only one that was honest about the process. She was very punctual with every meeting/court dates and could always be reached. Personally, having gone through this process, this was very important to me. I highly recommend Ms. Crotty.

Elizabeth Crotty and Jeremy Saland are true professionals. They are up front, discuss relevant features of the case, and are honest about the chances of dismissal or being convicted. I am a physician in NYC and was attacked, having suffered an injury in the attack, yet arrested and accused of ass...ault and harassment because there were two assailants. My medical license, and livelihood, was at risk because of this arrest. I hired another counsel who did not communicate with me at all -- it was very frustrating. Crotty and Saland helped me navigate the confusing and scary NY court system, resulting in a dismissal of all charges. Jeremy and Elizabeth are great! Thank you!
