Firm Description
We are counsel to the profession, corporations and individual litigants in a wide range of sensitive and sophisticated areas of criminal and civil liability.
What Makes Us Unique
Offering a unique combination of expertise and experience, Joseph W.
Ryan, a former federal prosecutor and highly respected presence in
courthouses and halls of government, has been trying, negotiating
and settling sensitive and complex matters for over forty years.
Mr. Ryan, has been appointed by the Honorable Raymond J. Dearie, Chief Judge for the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York to serve on the Magistrate Selection Committee. The Committee conducts a merit-selection process for candidates who apply for U.S.Magistrate/Judge vacancies on the court, and makes its recommendation to the Board of Judges. Four vacancies were filled in 2004 and 2005.
We are also unique in offering this significant federal and urban experience from a Long Island locale that facilitates handling matters in the newly opened federal courthouse in Central Islip. We hold ourselves available, for this purpose, to reasonable attorney referral fees on a case-by-case basis.
Criminal and Civil
We provide expert defense in all phases of federal and state criminal practice, including investigations, plea negotiations, trials, sentencing proceedings, post-conviction relief, and appeals.
Areas of Liability
We provide defense in disciplinary proceedings against professionals, including attorneys, physicians, accountants, and judges, an area in which Mr. Ryan has previously practiced from the prosecution side.
Directions
We are conveniently located in Suffolk County on Long Island.
