Out-of-State Attorneys Looking for a Local New York Criminal Defense Attorney for their Past or Current Client

It is very common for people who live out-of-state in places like New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and all the way down to Florida or across the country in places like California or Texas to get arrested in New York. Sometimes it happens while they are just visiting. Other times it happens after they move here permanently or while they are attending college in New York.

Regardless of what brought your client to New York, they might come to you asking for help finding a local criminal defense attorney in the NYC area who can help them with their case.

New York Attorneys in Other Practice Areas Looking for a Criminal Defense Attorney for their Former or Current Client

Most clients who hire a lawyer do not always realize how unique and specialized certain practice areas are, which is why it is not at all uncommon for people to reach back out to their former personal injury lawyer or divorce attorney for help with a criminal case.

In other situations, there might be some overlap between what you are currently helping a client with and what a criminal defense attorney might a great resource for.

For example, someone might be accused of fraud in a workers’ compensation case and their workers’ compensation attorney might want to have them consult with a criminal defense lawyer.

Cases We Handle

We accept attorney referrals for all levels of New York criminal matters—from routine misdemeanors to serious felony charges. Cases include:

  • Sex crimes (rape, sexual abuse, forcible touching)
  • Gun possession and weapons charges
  • Felony narcotics and drug cases
  • Domestic violence allegations
  • Child abuse and endangerment matters
  • Internet and computer-related offenses
  • Grand larceny and theft offenses
  • Robbery and violent felonies
  • DWI and vehicle offenses
  • Assault and other criminal charges

We don’t handle traffic tickets, so if your client got a speeding ticket while traveling through New York, we wouldn’t be the best fit for them. If, however, they got pulled over and the cops found an unlicensed firearm or drugs in the car, then that is the type of case we are definitely well-equipped to handle.

What Your Client Can Expect

Attorneys looking to refer a criminal defense matter can rest assured knowing that their client will always be treated with the compassion, dignity, and respect that they deserve.

They will also get a proactive and thorough criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor who has been praised by his past clients for clear and transparent communication, relentless preparation, and attention to detail.

Additionally, in the field of criminal defense, it is very common for clients to want the same attorney to handle every aspect of their case, which is much different than some other practice areas where it is more common to have different attorneys handling certain stages of the case.

If your client is someone who definitely needs that consistent point of contact and confidence that the same attorney they hired is the one who will be responsible for their entire case start to finish, then Michael J. McConnell will be a great fit because he is a true solo attorney. He will be fully and exclusively in charge of the case, so your client will not need to worry about cases getting passed off to associates after intake.
