Description:

At Hochhauser Criminal & DWI Defense you'll handle your own cases from arraignment through disposition in Nassau County District Court, County Court, and Suffolk/NYC courts.

We're growing because we win and our clients refer their friends and family. We need another lawyer who wants to be in court.

What You'll Do:

Handle a caseload of misdemeanor, felony, and DWI cases, from arraignment to plea or trial
Litigate suppression and refusal hearings and DMV proceedings, and challenge breath test and field sobriety evidence
Review discovery, draft motions, and negotiate with DAs
Explain the process to clients and their families so they understand what's happening and why

Who We're Looking for:

Admitted in New York and in good standing (newly admitted attorneys are welcome)
Fluency in Spanish is a plus.
Criminal experience is a plus but not required. Former public defenders, Legal Aid attorneys, 18-B attorneys, and ADAs are all encouraged to apply.
Comfortable on your feet in court, a strong writer, and someone who genuinely cares about people in crisis
