#1 best criminal lawyer in NYS. Real life Harvey Spector.

I was unexpectedly blindsided by a criminal case involving my local municipality in upstate New York. From July 2025 through February 2026, the experience took an enormous mental and physical toll on me. It became nearly impossible to focus on work while dealing with the stress and uncertainty of the... case. Every attorney I spoke with advised me to accept a plea and simply comply with the authorities. It truly felt like the odds were stacked against me. The situation was especially devastating because I am a farmer, and my livelihood depends not only on my work but also on the well-being of my animals. While I was at work one day, someone opened the door to my home and let my dogs out. Despite this being completely outside of my control, the municipality attempted to pursue charges and even sought to confiscate my dogs. The thought of losing them — and the impact it would have on my farming operation — was heartbreaking. When I was on the verge of giving up and accepting a plea, I decided to make one final call. At 9 p.m., we contacted Spodek Law’s hotline and explained my situation. Within five minutes, Alex Zhik responded personally and told me he would take the case. At the time, I was under significant financial strain — trying to manage legal fees while continuing to support myself and care for my farm and animals. I was upfront about my circumstances, and Alex treated me with understanding and respect. He worked with me on a payment plan and reassured me that we would get through it. Alex personally drove several hours to appear in court and built a thoughtful strategy to mitigate the situation. He guided me through every step and helped execute a plan that ultimately resolved the case. In the end, we were able to settle the matter with a small fine and close the case without further consequences. Most importantly, he eliminated the risk of me losing my beloved dogs and ensured that the case would not continue in a way that could jeopardize my farming livelihood. His responsiveness, dedication, and strategic approach made all the difference during one of the most difficult periods of my life. I am deeply grateful for his representation and would highly recommend him to anyone facing a difficult legal situation.

Highly recommended took nearly 20 years of charges to 100% dismissal

Mr Zhik did an excellent job an increasingly complex matter. He understood the players well, put in place an effective strategy, and executed well resulting in dismals across many false charges. Would highly recommend if you need a proactive advocate to get ahead of and/or eliminate the need for liti...gation.

Trust Worthy Lawyer

I don’t know where to start, I was going through a difficult time in my life. I was blamed for things and abuse that I never did. In the beginning of my arraignment I hired one lawyer but he seemed untrustworthy so I quickly seeked a change in representation. I came across Alexander Zhik he was like ...a light of hope in my situation. From the beginning he was blunt, respectful, and honest. He told me not to worry and that’s what I did. He kept me informed throughout the entire process even telling me deals that was offered the day before court and told me it wasn’t in my best interest. Following his Lead which is very important, my case got Dismissed. He fought for me was there every step of the way and he brings a level of calmness and confidence money can’t buy. Please if you need help Call Alex!

Going through a legal situation for the first time was incredibly daunting. I felt a mix of fear and anxiety, unsure of what steps to take next. That's when I decided to reach out to Spodek Law Group P.C. via email. Almost immediately, Alex from Spodek Law Group called me. He was not only incredibly... knowledgeable but also refreshingly honest and supportive. He took the time to understand my situation thoroughly and, right away, laid out a clear path forward. Given the minor nature of my case, he believed it had a strong chance of being dismissed even before a court hearing, which was a huge relief to hear. Alex promptly submitted my file and documents to a diversion program, which accepted my case. After completing the program, proof of my participation was sent directly to the District Attorney's office. Just two days later, I received a letter confirming that my case had been dismissed and would never even go to court. I cannot recommend Alex and Spodek Law Group P.C. highly enough. I am immensely grateful for the incredible support and exceptional legal service I received from him.

A lawyer who reaches out and takes their time!

This was the first time l needed to hire a lawyer. I was very overwhelmed. Alex actually reached out to me from a forum I posted on. He was the only lawyer to reach out. Even though it was summer and everyone was on vacation he took the time to help me. I was so appreciative of his patience when expl...aining the process. The way he answered all of my questions and didn’t rush to do so. He even helped me get approval so I didn’t have to lose another day of work. It was a smooth transition from being blindsided by life and the law to being free and all charges dropped. This firm really showed up for me. I would recommend this firm and Alex specifically to anyone in need of counsel. Thank you again Alex
