The best lawyer out there!

I cannot speak more highly of Jeremy Saland and his law firm. Jeremy not only did a wonderful job for my case that was ultimately dismissed but he made feel comfortable from the first time I spoke with him. He never made any promises other than working hard but reassured me that everything was going ...to be OK whenever I became anxious (which was a lot!). I initially came to Jeremy in a complete mess not knowing about my future after a woman I met said that I tried to extort her and the NYPD arrested me. Jeremy went through the allegations against me and we discussed my options and issues that I would face. Jeremy was right about everything. He and his associate were responsive and punctual in court, they answered my questions, and now my case is dismissed. Jeremy is now a friend of my family and proved why he is one of the best lawyers who knows his way around the criminal justice system.

"Jeremy is both a friend and a colleague. We worked together in the Manhattan DA's Office, and we are now colleagues in the defense bar. He has carved a successful niche for himself and is partner in a prestigious firm where he handles serious cases and secures great results. He's not afraid to take on the big cases and he's someone who I would trust with a referral. I highly recommend him."

"There are few criminal lawyers in New York City who are as skilled, aggressive, and compassionate as Jeremy Saland. I regularly refer him clients in New York City and Westchester and I am always pleased with the outcomes. He fights aggressively for his clients, even if it ruffles the feathers of the District Attorney's office. And as a former DA himself, Jeremy seems like he has their playbook in hand. He is always a step ahead of his adversary."

"I endorse this lawyer. Jeremy was well regarded in the DA's office when I worked with him and has maintained a strong reputation following his transition to criminal defense. He's a persuasive, no-nonsense advocate who knows what juries and judges are looking for. He's done well by his clients, better than most criminal defense lawyers I know."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Jeremy since our days as fellow prosecutors in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, where Jeremy was highly respected for his courtroom skills and knowledge of the criminal law. Since bringing those skills and knowledge to private practice, he has obtained outstanding results for his clients. In fact, when one of my civil litigation clients was arrested, and I was prevented from representing him due to a conflict of interests, I referred the case to Jeremy. Jeremy did a fantastic job and got all of the charges against my client case dismissed. Needless to say, my client and I were both very pleased and impressed with Jeremy's abilities, work ethic, and integrity throughout the entire process. Should a similar situation arise in the future, I would not hesitate to refer my client to Jeremy."
