I am taking this opportunity to thank Edward Sapone who is representing my son’s case. When I contacted Mr. Sapone for the first time, stressed and scared, I immediately felt this is the lawyer I’d trust my son’s life. Since then, I am sincerely thankful to Edward for his professionalism and experien...ce, compassion and understanding. He has a big heart supporting me as a single mother, generous and kind person who I trust the dearest thing in my life, my son. Edward Sapone is very knowledgeable who has unique thinking and will lead you the best option available. My prayers go out to Edward and his family, let God bless this wonderful attorney who is doing miracles for his clients.

Ed Sapone represented my son in a federal criminal defense case that lasted more than four years. We had many unexpected twists and turns and Ed always told us to be patient because time was our friend. This turned out to be the right advice for our situation. Ed was consistently thoughtful and bri...lliant. He was always there for my son and for me as my son was facing a very difficult judge in an incredibly tough case with mandatory minimums and excruciating guidelines. Mr. Sapone and his hard working and kind associate Chase were always honest but hopeful about the time my son was facing . They did the hard work including preparing and presenting several complicated submissions. Mr. Sapone knew which professionals ,outside his office, needed to be consulted and he brought them in. He seized an opportunity for my son resulting in a below the guidelines with no mandatory minimums sentence. I can only say that this has been the most horrible time in my life and I was comforted and convinced to have hope by a lawyer who did everything he could to help us. To say we love him is an understatement. He added a dimension to our situation that saved us and that was hope and resiliency and brilliance. My son was facing a 17 year guidelines sentence and that was reduced by our judge to 7 years. Ed Sapone bears great responsibility for a very positive outcome.

I awoke at dawn in August of 2013 to three loud bangs on my front door, followed by, "This is the FBI, come out with your hands up!" So began the worst day of my life. Having twenty FBI Agents and U.S. Marshalls surrounding my home wiith guns drawn told me something very serious was happening. I... would soon learn that I was being arrested, named in a $140 million securities fraud indictment. Thank God I would soon meet Edward Sapone. Mr. Sapone clearly knew all the legal nuances and U.S. Sentencing Guidelines. Even though the Government had all of the leverage, Mr. Sapone used his many years of experience and cutting edge team of lawyers and paralegals, composing a formidable team, ultimately keeping me from having to go to trial, facing the horrible possibility of 30 years imprisonment. Initially, the Government offered me a plea deal, with a range of seven to nine years imprisonment. Mr. Sapone diligently negotiated the plea down to a range of zero to five years, with a five year cap. As good as everything was falling in to place for me, the best was yet to come. Given the hundreds of hours of work done by Mr. Sapone on my sentencing memo, he convinced the judge to use a downward variance whereas I received only five years probation. Mr. Sapone had prevented me from going to prison and enabled me to get my life back, so that I can continue to take care of my family. Mr. Sapone has great patience, never talked about money and above all is a gentleman, whom I consider a close friend. I highly recommend Mr. Sapone to anyone needing a lawyer they can count on, as I do even though he is 3,000 miles away!

I was put in touch with Ed Sapone through my father in law, also an attorney, after an unfortunate series of circumstances led to my arrest. It was never a situation I thought I would find myself in in my entire life, but Ed and everyone at his office was approachable, understanding, and available th...roughout the process of dealing with the NYC court system and everything that came after. I truly felt like I was in good hands with people who not only understood, but cared. Ed is sincere, diligent, and passionate about what he does. I hope to never find myself or anyone I love in another criminal situation again, but if that does become the case, I know exactly who to call.
