also known as Jim Daley
I have been admitted to the New York State Bar since 2004. I spent the first ten years of my career as an Assistant District Attorney in the Onondaga County (Syracuse) District Attorney's Office. Over the course of my public service time I prosecuted thousands of criminal cases, including DWI, Assault, Robbery, Burglary and illegal weapons possession. I also have experience in the handling of criminal appeals. During my tenure as a prosecutor, I conducted over 20 jury trials and countless grand jury presentations and hearings.
In 2014 I left the D.A.'s office to go into private practice. My practice is dedicated exclusively to representing those charged with traffic charges, DWI, misdemeanor and felony offenses. In making the decision to end my career as a prosecutor and go into criminal defense, I knew I only wanted to associate with those defense attorneys that have proven themselves to be exceptional attorneys and have the best reputations in the community for honest, ethical and zealous representation of those facing criminal charges. I found the perfect opportunity at Green & Brenneck to work with a team of experienced, former prosecutors who have demonstrated time and again their ability to deliver results for clients and maintain the highest level of professionalism and compassion.

What a relief!
I ended up randomly googling lawyers in my area when I panicked after getting my only DWI from a checkpoint on a holiday. I'm in the healthcare field and feared this would forever affect my career. I found Jim because his group of lawers at TeamGreen were the best rated in Syracuse,NY. He treated m...

Amazing Lawyer
I couldn't believe I could have such a huge lack of judgment, but I did and I have had to pay the price for one night of drinking. Jim was a huge help with my DWI case. I walked into his office embarrassed, scared, upset, and mad at myself for what I did. From the moment of meeting Jim he was kind, c...

Defense attorney for DWI
I hired Mr. Daley after my case went unsettled for over 2 years, and my first attorney kept not showing up in court with me, and the Asst. DA in the neighboring county where I was arrested didn't respond either in attempts to get this settled so I could move one with life. Mr. Daley immediately met ...

"I worked with Jim in the Onondaga District Attorney's Office for over four years. During that time I watched as he prosecuted one high profile case after another - each time handling the case professionally, ethically, and with incredible skill. A prominent judge once told me that if I wanted to learn how to try a high profile DWI case, watch Jim Daley. I highly recommend him for any criminal defense or DWI cases."
"I strongly endorse Jim Daley. Jim is a highly skilled defense attorney and is well respected amongst judges, prosecutors and fellow attorneys in the local legal community.

"Mr. Daley is a lawyer you can count on to guide you through the criminal law process. He has a great deal of experience in the field of DWI. When he as a prosecutor he worked for several years in the DWI unit. After he learned that field really well he moved on to major crimes in the felony trial unit. He has tremendous experience handling major cases and knows what facts matter. He can be relied on to give you the "real" analysis of a legal issue and advise you of the best course of action for you and your family. I think he would be a great choice for anyone who has been charged with a crime. He is well respected in the legal community.
