"James Schiff and I worked together as prosecutors in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office and have discussed many issues from the criminal defense perspective since leaving law enforcement. As a prosecutor, Mr. Schiff was in the trial and investigation divisions. He has a tremendous knowledge base, is thorough in his work and certainly has the skills to represent clients in the courts of New York. I would not hesitate to recommend him to clients in conflict matters or to discuss legal issues that arise in the course of criminal defense work. As such, I certainly endorse his work."
