Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
Kostelanetz LLP has long maintained a robust appellate practice in federal and state courts, and in civil and criminal matters. Our attorneys’ prior experience as Assistant United States Attorneys and public defenders—representing the government and defendants in federal and state appeals—has established a firm foundation for our appellate practice in tax and criminal matters, and it has reinforced our firm’s equally vigorous representation of clients in civil appeals in the commercial arena.

White Collar Crimes
Kostelanetz has been recognized by major legal ratings agencies for its white-collar defense work. The firm, overall, has been recognized by Best Lawyers™ as a Tier 1 National “Best Law Firm” in three categories, Criminal Defense – White-Collar, Tax Law, and Litigation – Tax. Additionally, Chambers USA has recognized partner Sharon L. McCarthy for Litigation – White-Collar Crime & Government Investigations – New York.

Identity Theft
IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel issued the following warning: “People should watch out for erroneous fuel tax credit claims and the scammers that promote them... These scammers will often charge a hefty fee for these bogus claims, and participants also face the possibility of identity theft.” IR-2023-55.
Restraining Order
Invoked the U.S. Constitution’s “dormant commerce clause” in a “Section 1983” action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, to obtain a temporary restraining order, and then a preliminary injunction, blocking efforts by the New York City Business Integrity Commission to put a major regional waste hauling company out of business.
