Westchester Criminal Defense Attorney
Charged with a crime?
My name is The Law Office of John M. Cromwell and I am a Westchester criminal defense lawyer who represents individuals charged with misdemeanors and
felonies. If you have been arrested for committing a crime, you will want a skilled and effective defense by a proven trial lawyer. I was born and raised in the Bronx and have been a defense attorney for over 27 years, including seven years working at the Legal Aid Society of Nassau County. I can represent you at your
arraignment and will argue for release on your own recognizance. When preparing your defense, I will thoroughly investigate the charges and evidence in your case, and discuss all of your legal alternatives. I will also listen carefully to what you have to say about the situation, and will answer any questions you have so that you understand all of the legal aspects of your case.
If you have been charged with theft crimes such as
burglary,
larceny and
robbery;
domestic violence,
drug offenses or
juvenile crimes, contact my office at once for qualified legal help. I know the impact an
arrest can have on a person's life, and will provide you with whatever assistance you need and help you through this difficult period.
Criminal Lawyer: Protecting the Accused
Criminal charges can be devastating and create an uncertain future. If you have been arrested for sex offenses such as
sexual assault and
rape;
DWI (DUI and DWAI),
first DUI offense and
multiple DUI;
weapons crimes or
probation & parole violations, you will need a dedicated and experienced defense attorney to protect your rights and freedom. I have successfully represented clients in a broad range of cases, including
violent crimes such as
assault,
armed robbery,
murder and
manslaughter, and will conduct an aggressive defense when seeking to avoid a conviction. I am also a skilled negotiator who can pursue the best deal possible in a plea bargain.
Every case is unique and will require its own tailored plan which I will discuss with you at length so you know what options you have. My office will keep you informed of the progress that is being made with your case, as well as the actions that are being taken on your behalf and the results that are expected. My rates are reasonable and I also work out payment plans with clients that need help with financing. I also speak fluent Spanish.
