Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney in Financial District
Is one bad business decision or a DWI going to end your career? Are you going to have to tell your spouse and children that you are going to jail?
An arrest is not a conviction. If you’ve been charged with a crime in New York City’s Financial District, now is the time to protect yourself.
Law Offices of Robert Tsigler, PLLC, is a multi-attorney Financial District criminal defense firm. Serious cases ranging from theft to assault to federal fraud go through a 10-Attorney Roundtable strategy session at our NYC criminal defense firm. While the outcome of every case is fact specific, we work to help clients protect their job, their record, and their reputation.
Tell us what happened, and we will review your legal options with you.
Why Financial District Criminal Defense Cases Come to Law Offices of Robert Tsigler
Our founding attorney began his career interning at the Kings County District Attorney’s Office before he started defending people instead of prosecuting them. That experience shapes how our team builds a defense today.
Most Financial District arrests start with the NYPD’s 1st Precinct at 16 Ericsson Place and move to arraignment at Manhattan Criminal Court on Centre Street, and we appear there on short notice for clients.
Financial District Charges We See
We defend Financial District clients on charges ranging from petit theft and assault to drug or weapons charges. We also handle serious financial crimes, including grand larceny, fraud, and identity theft. A conviction on almost any of these charges can also cost you a professional license, your immigration status, or your job, on top of whatever sentence a judge hands down.
This reflects New York law as of August 2026.
Financial District Criminal Defense Questions We Hear Most
Do I need a lawyer right away if I was just arrested in the Financial District?
Yes. Arraignment can happen within a day of your arrest, and what happens at that first appearance can affect bail and the rest of your case. Contact us before you say anything else to the police.
What happens after an arrest near Wall Street or the Seaport?
Most Financial District arrests move through the NYPD’s 1st Precinct and then to arraignment at Manhattan Criminal Court, where a judge decides bail. We can appear on short notice and start reviewing the charges against you before your case is even called.
Do you handle financial crime and fraud cases too?
Yes. Alongside general criminal defense, we have represented clients facing federal wire fraud and identity theft charges.
