I am currently practicing criminal defense and juvenile delinquency in Lehigh Valley (Northampton and Lehigh) and Monroe County. My office is located conveniently in Easton, PA. I also have a satelite office in Stroudsburg, PA, directly next to the courthouse. My practice spans the entire spectrum of criminal defense from minor traffic offenses to serious violent crimes including sexual offenses.
I was previously employed as a full-time public defender in Monroe County after completing a Clerkship with the Honorable Arthur L. Zulick. During my tenure in Monroe County, I worked on many important cases including litigation challenging sex offender registration for Juveniles and a published Superior Court opinion involving supression of statements made by a juvenile in residential sex offender treatment. Upon opening my criminal defense practice in Easton, I was employed as a part-time public defender for Northampton County. In 2018, I left the public defender office, as I was appointed to the position of Dependency Hearing Officer. I continue to serve in that position in addition to my priviate criminal defense practice. I also serve as solcitor for various municipalties throughout the Lehigh Valley.

Hiring Syzane was well worthwhile. She ensured I was on top of all my responsibilities and ahead of the game for someone who has little experience in the judicial system. She was kind, honest and a genuine representative. I would highly recommend her!

Highly Recommended
At the time of our consultation Attorney Arifaj did an excellent job of explaining both the process and the potential outcomes I faced. Throughout the process she was both professional and accessible, and ultimately her expertise led to the best possible outcome in my case.
"Dedicated and extreme attention to detail are just a few ways to describe how Attorney Arifaj approaches her cases. She is an excellent criminal defense attorney. She is also an expert in juvenile offenses and the person I call when I have a question in that area."
"There are few attorneys that fight harder for their clients than Syzane. She is dedicated to protecting her clients, ceaselessly and fearlessly working on their behalf. Moreover, Syzane is one of the most ethical attorneys I have met, both in terms of the Rules of Ethics and otherwise."
"No other attorney I've found will match Attorney Arifaj's passion for achieving justice and positive outcomes for her clients. As a former public defender, she has stood up for those who can't stand up for themselves.You can be sure that Attorney Arifaj will fight for you too."
"Very few lawyers fight for their clients like Attorney Syzane Arifaj fights for her clients. She is fearless and always in her clients' corners, keeping them advised, and making every single case a priority no matter what the situation. Smart, dedicated, compassionate...I would trust her completely in representing a close friend or family member and am proud to count her as both a colleague and friend."
"Syzane is a dedicated attorney with many years of experience in criminal defense work. If you have a criminal matter in Northampton, Lehigh or Monroe County, I highly recommend her."
