I have been in private practice for over twenty years and I concentrate in the areas of criminal defense and family law. Prior to my private practice I was an Assistant District Attorney with the Westchester County District Attorney's Office.
I take great pride in my commitment to my clients and the fact that I treat every case as if it is my only case. It is extremely important to me that my clients have complete confidence in me not only as their attorney but also as someone who is genuinely concerned for their best interests and who treats them with compassion and respect.
In all of my cases I always make sure that my clients understand every aspect of their case, that they are kept informed and up to date and most importantly, that they know that I am zealously and relentlessly protecting their legal rights and interests at all times.

traffic citations
I'm a lawyer in another state. While visiting Westchester County a client of mine picked up two traffic citations. Mr. Sachs achieved an excellent resolution - dismissal of one citation and reduction of the second from a moving violation to a parking ticket. Then he told us exactly how to pay the par...

Highly Recommended!!!
Mr. Sachs is an amazing attorney! He had great communication throughout the entire process. We got the exact result we wanted even though I felt the cards were stacked against me. I would highly recommend Mr. Sachs to anybody in search of a lawyer. Mr. Sachs was able to have my probation terminated w...

If you want quality legal help after an arrest, hire David Sachs
Seriously had panic attacks after my arrest, but after I hired David and his firm, David exceeded expectations on every level. If you want quality legal help, hire David and his firm. The website says "Westchester's Premiere criminal defense firm" and that it is not a misrepresentation.

QUALITY!
Yes, this firm asked for a big retainer BUT, after talking to a couple of other area lawyers, this firm seemed more aggressive. I met with David Sachs at my first meeting and he gave me the feeling that I was going to be well protected in my trumped up, ridiculously racist criminal charges against m...

I will do my best to get you a desired outcome. When you hear this, then you can find something else in your life to worry about
It so happened that I ran through a stop sign in the village of Tuckahoe a few months back. In conference with Mr.Sachs he assured me that he will do his utmost best to secure a favourable resolution to the matter on my behalf. So said, so done. Iwas very worried because my license was in jeopardy if...
"Davids confidence in his knowledge and zealousness in the courtroom are a combination that his clients benefit from each and every day. It starts when he takes the time to listen to them on the phone and never stops until the case is resolved to their satisfaction. David is a true professional in our field."
"David is a great legal mind. I have seen him tackle complex legal issues and develop a winning strategy for his clients. I have referred personal friends to David, and he consistently delivers excellent results on their behalf."
"I strongly endorse Mr. Sachs. He is professional and utilizes an excellent demeanor both in and out of the courtroom. Very strong track record of success on behalf of his clients."
"I have professionally and personally known David since we started together at the Westchester County District Attorney's Office. David is an outstanding lawyer, co-worker and personal friend. David knows the law, how to argue with other attorneys and judges to effectively represent his clients. His ability to "think outside the box" to come up with creative ways to win cases is extraordinary. I am always amazed and impressed with the clever arguments he presents and just how effective he is in the courtroom. Even other lawyers tell me how impressed they are with David and that they consider him a formidable adversary, someone they can not trick or manipulate. Importantly, all his clients have confidence in his ability and always return with other matters or refer family and friends. If you are charged with any crime, you need to talk to David and you will soon share my opinion. David has gone to trial on all types of criminal cases everything from murder to traffic tickets."

Through aggressive and thorough representation I brought new facts to the prosecutor's attention which led the prosecutor to move to withdraw all criminal charges pending against my client.
