Eric Edward Rothstein

ERIC ROTHSTEIN is hands down the BEST CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY you can hire in ALL OF NYC!!! Take it from me - I interviewed multiple lawyers off of referrals. They were okay - but all had the same pitch - exaggerate the worst case outcome & negotiating would be a "very tough task". For example t...hey would say: "instead of 3 days Community Service - I can try to convince the Prosecutor to bring it down a bit". As if to say they are earning their fees. Eric is different - he is HONEST!! In fact the MOST HONEST attorney I've ever met (and I've worked with many in business). As you all know, that is tough trait to come by these days. Frustrated from the referrals - I came across him searching the web and found Avvo.com. All his reviews are accurate. He told me from day 1: "this is what I expect in your case and if we don't get it - I will Not accept the plea until we get what I want - Period!" Eric is SUPER INTELLIGENT in all aspects of the Law - not just Criminal. He is HIGHLY RESPECTED by his peers, Prosecutors & Judges. His SUCCESSFUL track record speaks for itself. He was at the court house before the scheduled time and made life so easy for me. In and out - first case. Great KNOWLEDGE - easy to get a hold of - just an all around GREAT GUY. I consider him a FRIEND now. Avvo has many high rated attorneys, but Eric is simply BETTER than the rest. If you need an attorney - don't waste time like I did searching & searching - just GO WITH ERIC ROTHSTEIN - I GUARANTEE you will be in good hands and get the results you want. BTW - he is an AWESOME personal injury attorney as well.

I first reached out to Eric in January in order to inquire about what options were at my disposal after receiving a citation for public urination. Eric was incredibly helpful and very timely in offering advice regarding the best course of action for my particular case. Seeing as I wished to have this... completely removed from any record (regardless of whether it is public or private I wanted to make sure that there was no chance that a future employer etc. would come upon this information), Eric and I moved forward in an attempt to get my case thrown out. Simply put, Eric clearly told me what steps I would have to take in order to help him accomplish this goal and after following his simple and easy instructions he ultimately was able to get my case thrown out.

My case was with Century 21. I was charged with Petit Larceny for shoplifting. I picked Eric out for my case based on excellent reviews on Avvo. Eric mentioned that he expected to be able to get an ACD based on my background and indeed was able to do so. (ACD implies the charge would be dismissed wi...thin 6 months of the first court appearance date contingent on completion of community service and no repeat offences). On the appointed court date, he was there before me and had already spoken to the authorities about my ACD. The day went very smoothly. Before the court date, he addressed all my questions/anxious concerns patiently and with impressive promptness, both on the phone and email. What I like most about working with him is that he does not over-promise or overstate. His ample experience in the field must help. I felt like I could rely on his advice. I am happy with the service he has provided on my case. I recommend him highly.

Eric Rothstein made me feel more at ease after I got charged for public urination in NYC. My biggest fear was having the charge on record permanently and being accessible to everyone. From the start, Eric told me the facts with confidence. Because of Eric's experience and knowledge, my charges wer...e dropped; I couldn't have been happier. Eric responds quickly and gives all info out so we know what we are dealing with. Eric's experience also managed to get my case dealt with faster. Based on his incredible knowledge, professionalism and years of experience, I highly recommend Eric Rothstein.

There are not enough words to express my gratitude to Eric Rothstein. From the very start of my case he was attentive, meticulous, and dedicated to fighting for me. His knowledge of the law is irrefutable and his wisdom is remarkable. He was ALWAYS prompt for every single meeting, which I was extr...emely thankful for. Eric is not the type of attorney to keep you hanging either. His response time on emails and phone calls was incredible and he always gave to the point answers. I am so pleased that I was fortunate enough to obtain his services because he did wonders for my case. He made the whole process much less stressful all while keeping me constantly informed. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney! Trust me when I tell you Mr. Rothstein is the key to winning your case; he will not disappoint!
