A Review of the Long Island Criminal Courts from a Long Island Criminal Lawyer.

Often people refer to Long Island as if it is one jurisdiction. However, what people believe to be Long Island is rather Nassau County and Suffolk County. They represent two separate Counties and each has its own Criminal Court. Thus, it's incumbent on you to hire a Long Island Criminal Lawyer that is skilled and knowledgeable in both Nassau County and Suffolk County Criminal Courts. Moreover, each County has its own series of town and village courts that can deal with misdemeanors and traffic violations. But for the purposes of this article we will stay within the jurisdiction of each County's Criminal Courts.

The Office of the District Attorney of Nassau County takes Crime very seriously. In Fact the prosecution of Nassau County DWI cases was highlighted on the CBS television show 60 minutes. But Nassau County doesn't stop there. On their website they promote enforcement which leads to catching perpetrators of: Insurance Fraud, Medicaid Fraud, Economic Crimes (including bank fraud and stock fraud) Sex abuse, and possession and distribution of drugs. Therefore, having a Long Island Criminal Lawyer with experience in dealing with theses types of crimes is an invaluable aid in fighting criminal charges in this Long Island Court.

The Eastern part of Long Island is where Suffolk County is located and the Suffolk County Criminal Court is a tough jurisdiction if you've been charged with a crime. The Office of the Suffolk County District Attorney has been quite aggressive over the past several years. They've taken on some high profile defendants such as The Rockville Centre Archdiocese. The District Attorney began an investigation looking into allegations of Sex abuse. Moreover, the District Attorneys there pursued an insurance fraud investigation with the state of Florida. These are in addition to the strict DWI, domestic violence, drug possession (including cocaine and marijuana) and distribution policies that are currently in place.

My wife and I met under some unconventional circumstances. After I had some legal problems, Mr Bilkis and his firm continually got me out of trouble. I then had his firm represented my wife and he got her out of trouble! We are still married and got our ways straightened away. We both can't thank him enough for saving our lives and our families!

I was in need of legal assistance for a very sensitive matter for a family member. I contacted the law offices of Stephen Bilkis & Associates, PLLC and was met with staff whose demeanor was supportive, compassionate and professional. The lawyer handling our case had many years of experience and treated us as if we were his own family. Our experience was so good, and we became so close to all of the staff and all of the attorneys who assisted us, that we consider them our extended family and continue to send them our home baked gifts for the holidays.
