Craig Trainor

Craig Trainor represented me in Manhattan criminal court when I was falsely arrested for resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. My friends and I were causing no trouble, when a police captain approached us and asked us for ID (which I did not have on me). Instead of looking us up, we were arrested ...and charged with a crime. I spent 16 hours in police custody with absolutely no valid justification. Before meeting Craig, I thought that no one would believe me and that something this unjustified could never happen. However, Craig believed every word I said, and I knew he would fight for me from the very beginning. He explained that this sort of thing happened much more than the general public was aware. Besides getting my criminal case dismissed, Craig went the extra step. He told me that I had a strong case in my truthful story and that my constitutional rights were worth fighting for. He was right. He filed a notice of claim, and within a few short months (with minimal effort on my part) he negotiated an amazing financial settlement with the City of New York for what the cops did to me. Any questions that I had, he was more than willing to not only answer- but completely explain, no matter what time or day it was. Craig was more than helpful- he has a passion for justice and the constitution. I could never have imagined that such a good outcome would come from a horrible situation, but it was all thanks to Craig Trainor!

When the FBI came to my door, I had no idea what was going on or what to do. I spent the morning calling lawyers in my area who dealt with cybercrime. I left voicemail after voicemail for around six lawyers and no one was available to talk. I finally found Craig Trainor’s website and gave him a call.... I explained my situation and he scheduled a meeting for that night. He took the time to explain the entire process of the case and made sure to prepare me for the best and worst-case scenarios. Craig went above and beyond to contact me as soon as he found out more information about my case and addressed ALL of my questions and concerns. He was exactly the type of lawyer I wanted to represent me and I’m so thankful he worked so hard to get the best possible outcome – a deferred prosecution agreement! – which is very rare in the federal criminal system for individuals because it results in the eventual dismissal of all charges. The best value that Craig brings is not only experience and fierce advocacy on your behalf but peace of mind in a scary situation. I highly recommend Craig because knowing that your case is in the hands of a professional of his caliber and judgment will be a huge weight off your shoulders!

Consulted with Craig twice regarding a relative of mine being held without bail. For sure he is a lawyer with the client's best interest in mind. He took the time to answer my questions and provided further guidance on the next steps, things I ought to think about. I've consulted with multiple lawyer...s and he's definitely one who I can tell right away is highly responsible, experienced, and someone with a sense of empathy.

Craig Trainor is a great guy to work with and great lawyer. He took my case after I was falsely arrested and mistreated by the NYPD when I was coming home from a club in Inwood. I retained Craig Trainor to take action against the police by suing them. We spoke a lot throughout the lawsuit process and... won the case by settling the lawsuit for some good money! If you want a lawyer who will fight for you, call Craig Trainor!

Craig Trainor takes a lot of pride in his cases and his role as a lawyer. He helped me win a case for being falsely arrested for DWI. He is very dedicated, knowledgeable, experienced and observant to detail. He caught all the mistakes made by the cops in my case that led to my false arrest. He cross ...examined them and even had one stammering on the witness stand. He is aggressively active from opening to closing arguments during trial. He showed the jury I was innocent, and they all agreed. Without any doubt, I highly recommend Craig Trainor for any trial case. He is the real deal. Harry Lower East Side, Manhattan
