About Lisa
Biography
If you are looking at my profile then you or a loved one must be in need of help. I'm certain you are going through a difficult time. I have been practicing criminal law for over thirty years in the NYC and Hudson Valley. Having been a Prosecutor, I am very familiar with all aspects of Criminal Law.
I have handled thousands of cases and look forward to sharing my experience with you. I am available 24/7, call me at so we may discuss your case. I do not charge for the consultation. Finding the right criminal defense attorney begins with calling me. Being arrested or having a loved one arrested is very stressful. In many cases I will come to your neighborhood to meet with you.
There is no case too big or small. I handle from DWI - DUI's, Desk Appearance Tickets (DAT's), Larceny to Homicides. I have experience as a Prosecutor and defense attorney and have handled all types of cases. I am a former SEX CRIME, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE and CHILD ABUSE PROSECUTOR and have expertise defending clients charged with these crimes.
I will explain each and every aspect of the criminal justice system to you. We will work together to resolve your case. You will not plead guilty to something you did not do and I will fight for you and against a system that often denies you your constitutional rights.
Please visit my website to learn more about the work I have done to help people who have been charged with a crime.
I have an office in Poughkeepsie, NY - Hudson Valley - and in Mahattan. Tenemos abogados defensores que hablan español en la firma de abogados.
Best Regards,
Lisa

Excellent Attorney
Hired Lisa to seal my felony case. I explained my situation, other offenses, and the time that passed. She was honest with my options and the possibility of getting my felony sealed. Took a little longer due to COVID, but sure enough she got my felony sealed in only 6 months. I cannot thank her o...

Listen to Lisa !!
Outstanding Attorney !! I just had a 19 year old felony conviction sealed thanks to her counsel. The DA wanted to deny my motion to seal but Lisa handled my case masterfully as my motion was granted. I could not be more pleased with her. Thanks to her I have a new lease on life.

Excellent Attorney
Lisa successfully handled a NYC record sealing for me in much less time than was expected. She is an excellent attorney. I have dealt with many attorneys in my life and Lisa is different. Many attorneys just take your money and then it is hard to even get them on the phone or cases drag on and on fro...
Lisa J. Pelosi's Lawyer Endorsements
"Ms. Pelosi and I have been colleagues since 1984 when we became ADA's and have continued working together on countless criminal cases, state and federal, since then. Ms. Pelosi is a highly talented, ethical, devoted and caring attorney... she is a lawyer's lawyer. Outside of the courtroom, she is as gentle as a lamb. Inside the courtroom, she is a relentless tiger aggressively fighting and advocating for her clients very professionally and successfully. If any of my family members were ever to face criminal prosecution, Ms. Pelosi would be THE attorney representing them, bar none. Need I say more?"
"I endorse this lawyer. I have recently worked with Attorney Pelosi on a very serious Supreme Court matter and i would seriously recommend her if you need a litigator. I know the difference between the B level lawyer and the A level lawyers. Lisa is Top-Tier! She comprehends the weaknesses of the Prosecutors."
"I endorse this lawyer with pleasure. I have always found her to be extraordinarily thorough and caring."
"I have known Ms. Pelosi for over 30 years and have been co-counsel with her on a number of criminal cases which were resolved by either plea, dismissal or trial. She is, without a doubt an outstanding attoeney and excellent advocate. Her skills are only exceeded by her professionalism, ethics and zealous representation. I heartily endorse her.."
"Lisa is a very experienced criminal attorney and focuses exclusively on criminal law. She has obtained very favorable results for her clients."
