THOMPSON WIGDOR & GILLY LLP

Criminal Defense and Trials. Attorneys at Thompson Wigdor & Gilly LLP are highly experienced in handling all types of criminal cases and include former federal and state prosecutors who have had jury trials in cases ranging from murder to tax fraud. One of our founding partners prosecuted the Abner Louima federal civil rights trial while in the United States Attorney's Office and another prosecuted high-level financial crimes as a member of the prestigious complex litigation / white collar crime bureau of the District Attorney's Office.

Our firm represents both individuals and corporate entities through the various stages of the criminal process, including grand jury proceedings, post-indictment, trials and appeals. We also provide legal assistance with respect to internal or government investigations, corporate compliance, and negotiating plea agreements and grants of immunity. When an individual or a company is charged with a crime or faces a government investigation, one of the most important decisions to make is the selection of the right criminal defense lawyer. As former federal and state prosecutors, our attorneys have presented hundreds of cases to the grand jury and are thus intimately familiar with the process and how to avoid indictment. We have also obtained successful jury verdicts in criminal cases and negotiated countless plea agreements. Our attorneys also have extensive experience drafting and formulating codes of conduct and company policies, as well as conducting internal investigations, including the use and administration of polygraph tests, to help prevent criminal conduct from occurring.

If retained to represent you in a criminal matter, we will use our substantial experience, knowledge of the entire criminal justice system and formidable trial skills to fight on your behalf and aggressively defend you against any criminal charges filed, or during any investigation conducted, by the United States Attorney's Office, District Attorney's Office or any other government agency.

Civil Rights Litigation. Thompson Wigdor & Gilly LLP also handles civil right cases, including the representation of individuals who have been victimized by police brutality or who have been discriminated against with regard to housing and/or other public accommodations. One of our founding partners successfully prosecuted the Abner Louima federal civil rights trial, and our other attorneys are also highly experienced in civil rights litigation. Our reputation, advocacy skills and dedication to our clients cannot be underestimated at a time when your civil rights have been violated.
