I hired Alex after seeing his reviews and I needed to go all in on a lawyer after being arrested for what would have been my third DUI which is a felony and would destroy the life that I’ve built with my family. Brian was sympathetic to my needs, he’s obviously very veteran friendly, a bit on the ...expensive side but you know what it was well worth it. Alex was very eager to take the case and quite confident that we were going to get the deal that we wanted or the case dismissed entirely. I even told him that if I could go to veterans Court that would be preferred, but he reassured me that it wouldn’t be necessary. That he wasn’t going to settle for anything less than the outcome that we wanted. Needless to say at the end of it I was basically given a traffic ticket. We have avoided a trial, and I even was giving my license back after three months when it should’ve been suspended for one full year for denying a breathalyzer. I don’t know how he did it, is definitely a smooth talker for sure. He was also pretty decent and making my mind focus on other things as we discussed basic life events etc. If you hire him, just know ahead of time that he thinks before he responds to anything. Sometimes it may feel like an awkward pause but he is simply formulating a well spoken statement. That’s the kind of guy you need to hire not somebody that’s just shooting words out of their mouth. Alex is calculated and even if my case going to trial I think he would’ve destroyed the prosecution. If you hire him, just know ahead of time that he thinks before he responds to anything.

Alex did great work, he was kind, sympathetic, and very reassuring That I wouldn’t be leaving the state without being OK. Alex thank you very much for all you’ve done for me, your staff was really great as well, and anybody who is looking to hire a lawyer I definitely recommend this firm. If it’s too much for you then they can work with payment plans, just don’t get it really cheap lawyer. You get what you pay for and I most certainly got the results that I paid for with a lawyer that went above and beyond

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... for me in criminal court. The entire situation was nerve wracking but Alex navigated through the process smoothly and was reassuring the whole time. I greatly appreciate his services and would highly recommend him to anyone needing a criminal lawyer in the Capital Region.

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...d reassuring during the process and made himself available to answer any questions I had. Alex ultimately was able to get my DWI charge significant reduced to a reckless driving charge with no suspension of my license. I couldn’t thank him enough for negotiating such a favorable result. Alex is an outstanding lawyer - anyone who is lucky enough to work with him knows that.

Mr. Shmulsky is very professional, personable and illustrates his extensive understanding of the law in his field. He is very strong minded, confident, and aggressive when needed. Due to this, I have hired him multiple times for services. He was very genuine and approachable during my first consultat...ion. I just separated and was not sure the best plan of action. He met with me immediately to review the best plan of action and helped me begin the divorce process. His overall approach and empathy assured me that I was well cared for. This was important at the time due to my emotional state. He was always readily available for any questions or concerns I had. He was aggressive in making my divorce a quick and somewhat painless process. I hired him a second time to assist with a case in family court matters. Again, he was very organized, aggressive, and attentive. I loved how easy it was to get in contact with him to get updates on the case. He is always friendly during any communication. If I need a lawyer again, I will most definitely reach out to Mr. Shmulsky. I highly recommend him for any legal needs in his areas of expertise.
