In order to be convicted of assault or attempted murder in NYC or NJ, the prosecutor has the burden of proof. Using this burden as a tool, the NYC criminal defense attorneys at the Law Offices of Gregory Esposito build a defense that highlights the lack of evidence (and lack of intent) involved in your case. Our thorough research and investigations will make it difficult for the state to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt. 

We might also be able to use certain defenses in your case, such as if you were acting in self defense or were defending the safety of another person. You have the right to use reasonable and necessary force to protect yourself, or others, from harm. If we can prove this as part of your case, your charges may be dropped, and the court could award you your attorney fees.

In Gregory’s experience as a NYC and NJ attorney and former prosecutor, far too many people wait to hire a qualified criminal defense attorney. You should always have an experienced NYC or NJ assault/attempted murder defense attorney by your side from the moment you’re questioned or charged. Your attorney will help you protect your constitutional rights, which can also help you fight your criminal charges.

Having worked within the NYC and NJ court system for years, Gregory has the real-world knowledge to help you fight your conviction. In some instances, he may be able to keep charges from being filed at all, particularly if we can show errors in police procedures or if we come across evidence that pokes hole in the prosecutor’s arguments. If your initial charge is a felony, and there is no grounds to drop it entirely, we may be able to get the charges reduced to a misdemeanor offense.

The moment you suspect you’ll be charged, contact NYC and NJ criminal defense attorney Gregory Esposito. Gregory is passionate about preserving your freedom, and will use his resources and experience to build a powerful and effective defense.
