Great Attorney!
Alex is a great attorney. I’m currently facing a felony charge and had a false accusation made by a former politician. Never was fit from the get-go to serve in public service. Alex has been fighting very hard for me and is a great attorney. He has listened and heard every concern that I had and has ...

An attorney that will tell your story and not just defend you
After making an extremely poor decision and getting charged with a DWI, I was terrified of what it all would mean for my job and my family.

Professional and responsive attorney
After calling another attorney first whose first available appointment was 5 days later, Alex met with me the same day I called him and less than 10 days until my court date. He was genuinely caring, accessible, and highly responsive at all times. He was able to negotiate a very favorable outcome...

Alex is an extremely professional, thorough and dependable lawyer. When I first got charged with a DWI, I had no idea what to do. I am truly grateful that I found Alex and that he represented me. Upon our first meeting, I immediately felt at ease that I was in good hands. He was honest, supportive an...
Alexander Russell Shmulsky's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have known Alexander since 2004. He is smart and hardworking, and he brings a commonsense approach to his practice that is missing with so many other attorneys. If you need help with criminal representation or family law in Saratoga County, call Alex."
"I've known Alex for roughly 7 years. Whether its as an attorney or as a good friend, he's the type of guy you want on your side. He's smart, compassionate, and respectful. But his most important attribute is that he's respected among the bench and bar within the legal community. He is on the short list of attorneys I would hire if I ever got myself into a jam."
"I endorse this lawyer. Have watched him in Court on numerous occasions and he is a tremendous advocate."
"One of the most qualified and effective criminal defense lawyers practicing in all of upstate NY and western MA."
"I've had the genuine pleasure of knowing and working with Alex Shmulsky for many years and, during that time, I've learned that Alex is a true gentleman, a consummate professional, and a terrific lawyer. Attorney Shmulsky is diligent, industrious, and attentive to detail. He is, once, a zealous advocate for his clients, a thoughtful, reasonable 'counselor-at-law', and a remarkably bright, hard-working, attorney - and one who I trust, respect, and admire. Perhaps most importantly, Alex is a an understanding individual, a wonderful listener and a kind person; in turn, these qualities manifest themselves in an attorney who not only cares deeply about the very real problems that his clients face, but one who is dedicated to solving those problems with with integrity, dignity, and respect. In short, if you are looking for thorough, courteous, quality professional legal representation, I strongly recommend that you call Atty. Shmulsky; you'll be glad you did."
"Alex is a top-notch litigator with impeccable courtroom skills. He cares deeply about his clients' cases, and does what it takes to obtain positive results for his clients. I would recommend Alex to any person seeking legal help in New York State."
"I was against Alex in a felony criminal trial a few years ago when I was still a prosecutor. Trials can certainly be the highest peaks of the adversarial process. Quite simply, Alex is one of the best at fighting for clients while being professional and respectful to everyone. The jury, the judge, and opposing counsel can all appreciate when an attorney is doing an amazing job without resorting to nasty tactics. Alex navigates these waters amazingly well. He was unwavering in his zealous advocacy and I've seen him get great results in a variety of cases. I'm happy to endorse him, if you hire him you can sleep soundly."
"Alex is a fantastic attorney who serves his clients with strong advocacy and a caring touch. He is well respected by courts and opposing attorneys because they know he comes prepared and ready to do the work necessary for his clients. It has been my pleasure getting to know Alex both personally and professionally. If someone finds themselves in a situation where they need his services, they would be well served with Alex."
