The best

Mr. Ferris is one of the best criminal justice lawyers. He will fight for your case and make sure you get the appropriate deal.  When it comes down to the payment he is very flexible understanding especially to the Minority who are struggling.  Mr. Ferris keeps you updated and informative with ever...ything, returns your on phone call in a reasonable manner.

One of the best lawyer ever

Mr. Spiro Ferris is a good lawyer. I had mr. Spiro as my attorney for about 8 yrs and every case that i brought to his attention when he was needed he, he got them dismissed (All felony cases). Mr. Spiro is a lawyer that u could count on he is always on time, he always think 10 steps ahead on ur case... he tells u everything he need n he goes to work.. The man is GREAT. Mr. Ferris is reasonable he will work wit ur bidget. He always make u feel comfortable n confident in him when he is in your presents .. I will recommend Mr. Spiro Ferris to anyone. Best Lawyer Ever!

A great lawyer

Spiro Ferris provided me with an outstanding criminal defense of my situation with a successful outcome. His hard work and diligence is one of a kind that I have never experienced with any lawyers I have dealt with in the past. Spiro has a great persona, and he exemplifies professionalism, integrity,... expertise, and portrays an outstanding work ethic that would exceed anyone’s expectation. I highly recommend Spiro as a lawyer.He also worked with me very well when it came to the payments an his prices are reasonable.

I used about 12 different lawyers in my life from criminal defense to buying & selling property, Spiro Ferris is one of the best

I'm met Sprio fierris in an elevator he gave me his business card and told me his rates are very reasonable, next day I hired him. I had three cases in the year of 2013, Sprio fierris handled them all, you probably think I'm a bad guy but I'm not, I'm actually a businessman, I have a property man...agement business and I just came out with a new natural Organic herbal product that helps diabetes, Www.DiabeticReversal.com, just had the streak of bad luck but that's all over now thanks to Sprio fierris. My first case I had 14 charges(Indict # 5261-13), 4 of them were felony charges, Sprio fierris got them all thrown out but got one charge, he got it reduced to a disorderly conduct with no probation or nothing and I have to staying out of trouble for 1 year. The interesting thing about Sprio fierris he handled it by phone, in other words they had their own private court session over the phone him and the DA then he would call me, back and forth so when we did go to court we all know exactly where we were headed, DISMISSAL, thanks Sprio fierris your the greatest. And as for the gentleman that made the comment Sprio fierris is money hungy, that's so not true, one of my cases was a DWI, I called Sprio fierris after i was already arrested and was arranged in court the next day and of course I had no money on me, once he got me out he said "on your next court date (which was a month away) bring the payment then for representing you in your DWI case. My last lawyer would lift a finger unless i had someone at court with cash/no check. So you see money hungry dosen't fit Sprio fierris profile. Thanks James L Bradley Jr

A HERO

Spero L. Ferris is the epitome of what you want in a lawyer. I was wrongfully charged for somethings I did not do. After only two trips to court my case was tossed. I was scared when I was facing charges for something I did not do. After talking with Spero I felt at ease. He respected our time on th...e case and made sure I knew everything that was happening with my criminal case. He made sure I knew all options. He also gave me a call on our days for court. I have known Spero for years and has always been there for me and he will be there for you. I would not make any legal decision without calling him first. With all his 32 years of experience I'm sure he can shed some light on whatever issue you have. Call him first.

"I give my highest rating and endorsement to Attorney Spiro Ferris. I have known Mr. Ferris for over 30 years as a close personal friend and fellow defense attorney. I have tracked Spiro’s legal career as it has developed from the Bronx District Attorney's Office in the early 1980's where he was a very successful prosecutor through the develop-ment of his private practice in New York City to the present. Without a doubt, he is one of the most talented criminal trial lawyers in Manhattan. I know of no other lawyer who prepares his cases more thoroughly than Mr. Ferris. His hard work and dedication to his clients' cases are demonstrated by his impeccable track record and successes in winning case after case, trial after trial, as is oftentimes reported in the various New York City newspapers. Put simply, Spiro has the strongest work ethic and is one of the most skilled trial attorneys I have had the good fortune to know."
